What is Asian blepharoplasty?

Asian blepharoplasty involves creating or defining an upper eyelid crease in Asian patients, while respecting ethnic characteristics. This procedure improves the appearance of the upper eyelids, providing a more open look and harmonizing facial expression, while preserving the patient’s ethnic identity.

Benefits of Asian blepharoplasty:

  • Structured, expressive look: This procedure creates a natural, proportionate crease, offering a more defined look.
  • Natural appearance: The fold is created to harmonize with facial features without altering ethnic identity.
  • Discreet scars: Incisions are made discreetly, and scars are virtually invisible after healing.
  • Lasting effect: Results are stable and can last for several years, offering a rejuvenated, dynamic look.

Indications for Asian blepharoplasty

This surgery is recommended for :

  • Lack of upper eyelid fold (monolid).
  • Heavy or drooping upper eyelids.
  • Asymmetrical or irregular folds.
    It can also be used to achieve a more defined look, while respecting the patient’s ethnic characteristics.

Procedure

1. Pre-operative consultation

During the consultation, Dr Roman Merle will examine your expectations and define the technique best suited to your morphology and wishes.

2. Anaesthesia

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia with or without sedation, or under general anesthesia, depending on your preferences and medical indications.

3. Procedure

  • Incisionless technique (sutures): Suitable for patients with thin skin and little excess skin. The fold is created using internal sutures, offering a reversible result and invisible scarring.
  • Incision technique: recommended for thick eyelids or eyelids with excess skin. The fold is created permanently by excising a thin strip of skin and fixing the levator muscle. This method can be combined with fat bag reduction for a lighter look.
    Duration: The procedure lasts between 45 minutes and 1h30, depending on the technique chosen.

4. After the operation

Edema and slight bruising may occur for 7 to 15 days. A feeling of tension in the eyelids may be felt, but this disappears rapidly. Sutures are removed after 5 to 7 days for the incision technique. Daily activities can be resumed after 5 to 7 days, while sports can be resumed after 3 to 4 weeks. The final result is visible after 2 to 3 months.

Expected results

  • More structured, expressive eyes.
  • A natural, proportionate and harmonious palpebral crease.
  • Very discreet scars, hidden in the future palpebral crease.
  • A long-lasting effect that can last for several years.
