Surgical method

Double eyelid surgery, also known as double eyelid plasty, refers to the skin between the lower edge of the upper eyelid brow arch and the eyelid margin being smooth. When the eyes are open, no wrinkles are formed, which is called single eyelid, commonly known as single eyelid. Double eyelid refers to a shallow groove above the eyelid margin in the upper eyelid skin. When the eyes are opened, the skin below the groove moves upward, while the skin above the groove relaxes and hangs down in the double eyelid groove.

Its appearance adds a beautiful golden section line to the flat upper eyelid. Compared with single eyelids, the skin and orbicularis oculi muscle of double eyelids are thinner, which provides less resistance to the upper eyelid levator muscle and makes the upper eyelid move more flexibly. Compared with Westerners, most Orientals have no upper eyelid folds, more than 50% have single eyelids, plump eye sockets, and narrow palpebral fissures.

Therefore, blepharoplasty is the most common surgery for Asians. Blepharoplasty is what we call double eyelid surgery. It is a method of forming a beautiful fold on the upper eyelid or restoring the original beautiful fold through surgery.
