Double Eyelid Surgery
(Asian Blepharoplasty)
Double Eyelid Surgery, technically known as Asian Blepharoplasty, is a delicate surgical procedure designed to create a natural-looking crease in the upper eyelid (a supratarsal fold). This is one of the most sought-after aesthetic procedures, creating an appearance of larger, more expressive, and more defined eyes. At Radiance Clinic, this artistic procedure is performed exclusively by our specialist Oculoplastic Surgeon, who has dedicated, advanced training in the intricate anatomy of the eye area.
What is Double Eyelid Surgery?
Many people of Asian descent have a “monolid,” which means there is no visible crease in the upper eyelid. Double Eyelid Surgery is a precise procedure that forms this crease. It is not about “Westernizing” the eye, but rather about enhancing its natural beauty, creating balance, and achieving the patient’s desired aesthetic.
Why Consider Double Eyelid Surgery?
Patients seek this procedure for several reasons, both aesthetic and functional:
- Aesthetic Enhancement: To create larger, brighter-looking, and more symmetrical eyes.
- Makeup Application: A defined crease can make applying eyeliner and eyeshadow much easier.
- Improved Expression: Well-defined eyes can appear more “awake” and expressive.
- Addressing Asymmetry: The procedure can correct unevenness between the two eyelids.
The Procedure: Your Personalized Approach
Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation with our Oculoplastic Surgeon. They will assess your unique eye anatomy and discuss your goals to design a crease that is in perfect harmony with your other facial features.
There are two primary techniques:
- Incisional (Open) Technique: A small incision is made where the new crease will be. A tiny amount of excess skin or fat may be removed, and the skin is meticulously sutured to create a permanent, defined crease.
- Non-Incisional (Suture) Technique: This less invasive method uses precisely placed sutures through small punctures to “pinch” the skin and create the fold. It is suitable for patients with thinner eyelid skin and no excess fat.
Your specialist surgeon will recommend the best technique for you.
Recovery and Aftercare
Following surgery, swelling and bruising are normal and will gradually subside. Stitches from an incisional technique are typically removed in 5-7 days. Most patients can return to work or social activities within 1-2 weeks. Our team will provide comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and beautiful results.
Why Choose a Specialist Oculoplastic Surgeon?
The eye area is incredibly delicate. An Oculoplastic Surgeon is a physician who first specializes in ophthalmology (eye medicine) and then undergoes further fellowship training in plastic surgery specifically around the eyes. This dual certification provides an unparalleled level of expertise to ensure the procedure is not only aesthetically beautiful but also functionally safe for your eyes.
