What is Asian Blepharoplasty?

Asian blepharoplasty is a targeted eyelid surgery designed to create a defined upper eyelid crease, enhancing the eyes’ natural beauty. Unlike traditional blepharoplasty, this procedure specifically addresses the anatomy of Asian eyelids, achieving a natural-looking crease that enhances the eye’s openness and depth. Through either suture or incision methods, our skilled surgeons create a crease that suits each individual’s unique eye shape, preserving ethnic characteristics and creating a harmonious balance.

What to Expect and Recovery

Asian blepharoplasty is performed under local anaesthesia and typically takes about an hour. Depending on individual anatomy and goals, the surgeon will make a precise incision along the upper eyelid to form a natural-looking crease, using either the suture technique or a minimal incision method. Each technique is designed to achieve a smooth, natural appearance without over-altering the eyelid’s look. Our clinic prioritises a refined approach to create subtle, balanced results.

Post-surgery, it’s normal to experience mild swelling or bruising around the eyes, which generally subsides within one to two weeks. Most patients feel comfortable returning to daily activities within a week, with full recovery expected within two weeks. As swelling reduces, the enhanced eye shape and defined crease become more apparent, revealing a natural, refreshed look.

For optimal results, follow your surgeon’s aftercare instructions, which may include avoiding eye makeup or heavy lifting for the initial days post-surgery.

Why Choose Asian Blepharoplasty?

Asian blepharoplasty is an ideal choice for those looking to:

  • Define the Eyelid Crease: Perfect for individuals with a single lid or minimal crease who feel it affects their eye shape and expression.
  • Reduce Puffiness: For those with excess fat in the upper eyelid, the procedure can reduce puffiness for a smoother, more refined eyelid.
  • Relieve Irritation from Inward-Folding Eyelashes: Eyelids that fold inward may cause lashes to rub against the eye, leading to discomfort. Asian blepharoplasty can relieve this issue while enhancing eyelid shape.

Combining with Other Treatments

Asian blepharoplasty can be paired with complementary treatments for those desiring more defined results. Epicanthoplasty, a procedure that lengthens the eye by adjusting the inner corner, can be combined to open and balance the eye’s shape. For under-eye concerns, lower blepharoplasty may also be considered, providing a comprehensive approach to overall eye enhancement.
