It
is one of the most popular aesthetic surgeries
among the Asian population. Most of Asian individuals think that
having an additional upper eyelid crease makes the eye more attractive
and alert, as well as allows the females to create a more beautiful
make-up.
Almost half of
Asian men and women are born without an upper crease or with the very
low or weak one. The choice of double eyelid surgery differs according
to an individual patient. Rarely, patients want eyes that look
“Western”. In most cases patients want to have a stable platform of
skin above the lashes.

Technique of double
eyelid surgery
Before the
operation, I will discuss with you the procedure best suited to your
eyes and the healing period. As people's faces differ, no
one technique should be used for all patients.
In most cases,
small incisions are made and the excess fat and skin are removed. This
procedure gives the best result. However, in young patients without
much fat, the double eyelid may be created using sutures alone.

After
double eyelid
surgery it is normal for the upper
eyelid to become swollen. The use of cold compresses can reduce the
swelling. The surgeon will also give anti-inflammatory cream for the
skin to reduce the swelling. The swelling usually settles within 10
days. The stitches are removed within a week.
