Some individuals with a single eyelid prefer the look of double eyelids.

Eyelid plastic surgery, or blepharoplasty, can create a double eyelid from a single one.

Asian eyelid blepharoplasty aims to enhance eye shape for attractiveness.

Single eyelids without creases may look small or droopy (a condition called ptosis can also happens occasionally).

Excess skin can impact appearance and vision.

Creating a fold/removing surplus skin can make the eyes look more open.

The objective is to achieve a balanced Asian double-eyelid appearance that harmonizes with other facial features.

This does not create a Westernized eye shape.

FAQ: Asian Eyelid Surgery

  • What is the difference between oral/maxillofacial surgeon and plastic surgeon?
    Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons have a dental background. They went to dental school prior to obtaining their training in maxillofacial surgery. The training involved dental implants, third molar removal, facial fractures, orthognathic surgery, and in some programs free flaps reconstruction for the head and neck. Plastic Surgeons goes to medical school prior to residency. In plastic surgery residency, the training does not involve dental implants, or third molar removal. It does involve facial fractures, orthognathic surgery, free flap reconstruction in the head and neck and the rest of the body. Plastic surgeons also have extensive training in facial aesthetics. Dr. Boonipat further his plastic surgery training with a concentrated fellowship in aesthetic jaw surgery in Taiwan. He is well qualified to address both your functional concerns by working with your orthodontist (braces/teeth doctor), and your aesthetic concerns because of his plastic surgery and fellowship training. In many cases, jaw surgery can be performed with other aesthetic procedures to improve your aesthetic outcome, all under one anesthesia.
