Cosmetic Blepharoplasty for the
Asian Eyelid

To view this patient's actual progress after surgery, see the photos below. Note how the highly arched new crease reshapes over time.

Single eyelid with multiple superficial incomplete folds; lashes pushed far downwards

Marked swelling above and below the incision line

New platform is swollen and crease appears high and overly arched

Less swelling on platform; crease slightly lower and smoother but still quite high

Less swelling; crease is better defined and slightly lower due to skin above the incision beginning to soften and drape

Crease is lower as the skin above has draped further

As internal healing continues, lashes have assumed a more upward direction

Platform thinner; crease is lower, more defined, and more regular in the corners due to the continued draping of skin above the scar

Medium tapered crease at full maturation

While representative, the rate of healing
will vary patient to patient.
