Asian Eyelid Surgery
Asian eyelid surgery is also known as “double eyelid” surgery. The purpose of surgery is to create an eyelid crease, also known as a “lid fold” in the upper eyelid. Surgery is not performed to westernize one’s appearance. In addition to creating an eyelid crease, surgery can also help the eyes look more open and make it easier to apply makeup.
Asian eyelid surgery is a cosmetic surgical procedure that aims to create or enhance the upper eyelid crease in individuals of Asian descent.
During your consultation with Dr. Moore, he will discuss your goals, expectations, and any concerns you may have. He will evaluate your eyelid anatomy, assess your facial features, and determine the most appropriate technique for your specific needs.
Good candidates are people who are in good health and have realistic expectations. Candidates must be at least 18 years old. Candidates must also have good eyelid function, including normal blinking, proper tear production, and healthy eyelid movement. Dr. Moore will evaluate eyelid function during your consultation to ensure that surgery will not negatively impact the health or function of your eyes and eyelids.
