Benefits of Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

Have you been told you have beautiful eyes? Over time, loose skin and puffiness can hide your eyes and make you look tired. Eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty can rejuvenate your eye area and correct signs of aging. As a result, you look youthful and alert with minimal recovery time and long-lasting results. 

What is Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?

The thin, delicate skin around the eye area moves constantly with every blink and facial expression. Over time, these effects lead to drooping eyelids, undereye bags, and wrinkled skin. Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty or an eyelid lift, is among the most popular types of facial surgery, and it can be performed on the upper lids, lower lids, or both simultaneously.

What is Oculoplastic Surgery?

What is Asian Blepharoplasty?

Concerns about the eye area are one of the most common reasons Asian Americans seek aesthetic surgery. Asian blepharoplasty is the most commonly performed aesthetic surgery in Asia. It is also the third most common procedure for Asian Americans. In the hands of a skilled surgeon, Asian blepharoplasty lets you look like yourself but with more aesthetically pleasing eyes. 

What is Asian Blepharoplasty?

Asian blepharoplasty is also known as double eyelid surgery. About half of all East Asian individuals have a pronounced eyelid crease. This crease can make the eyes look tired or even obstruct vision. An Asian blepharoplasty creates a supratarsal crease to give the eyes a more open, alert appearance. In the hands of a skilled surgeon, this procedure balances your goals with preserving your ethnic beauty. 

Asian blepharoplasty addresses three ways that Asian eyelids tend to differ from Caucasian ones:

  • Double eyelid (lack of a supratarsal fold)
  • Thicker, heavier-looking eyelids
  • Hooding, especially in the inner corners of the eye

In addition to blepharoplasty, some people choose to have another procedure. These can include

What is a Blepharoplasty?

Also known as an eyelid lift, blepharoplasty alleviates signs of aging from drooping eyelids and bulging fat pads on both upper and lower eyelids. Dr. Eric S. Ahn, a board-certified opthalmologist, performs blepharoplasty on upper and lower eyelids. 

Incisions are made inconspicuously. For lower eyelid lifts, Dr. Ahn makes an incision on the inside of the eyelid for a “scarless” operation. Dr. Ahn will remove excess skin and problematic fat to ensure the best results.
