Asian Eyelid Surgery (Double Eyelid Surgery) Newport Beach, CA | Jeffrey Joseph, M.D. - Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

Understanding Asian Blepharoplasty in Newport Beach

Double eyelid surgery, or Asian blepharoplasty, is a specialized cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the natural appearance of Asian eyelids. This precise surgical technique subtly adds or enhances a natural crease to create a more defined and balanced aesthetic.

What Makes Asian Eyelid Surgery Unique?

Asian eyelids have distinctive anatomical features that require specialized surgical expertise. Dr. Joseph's approach focuses on understanding these unique characteristics to create a tailored, natural-looking result.

Eyelid Crease Variations

• Approximately 50% of Asian populations have no visible eyelid crease
• Crease heights can range from 2mm to 6mm above the eyelashes
• Options include nasally tapered or parallel crease designs

Surgical Approach and Technique

Dr. Joseph specializes in an incisional technique that reliably creates an eyelid crease while maintaining the patient's natural appearance. The goal is to avoid an artificial "Westernized" look and instead enhance individual facial features.

Is Double Eyelid Surgery Right for You?

Ideal candidates seek to:

• Add a subtle crease to their eyelids
• Improve eyelid symmetry
• Enhance facial aesthetic balance

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect a recovery period of 1-2 weeks. Most individuals take approximately one week off work to ensure optimal healing. The results are permanent, providing a lasting enhancement to your natural appearance.

Procedure Details

The surgery can be performed with minimal anesthesia, typically using local anesthetic. During your consultation, Dr. Joseph will discuss personalized options to maximize your comfort and achieve your aesthetic goals.
