What Is Double Eyelid Surgery?

Double eyelid surgery (Asian blepharoplasty) creates or enhances a visible upper eyelid crease. The goal isn't simply to make the eyes larger—it is to improve eye definition while maintaining a natural appearance that complements your facial features. The ideal surgical approach depends on your eyelid anatomy, skin thickness, muscle structure, and personal preferences.

Techniques

Types of Double Eyelid Surgery

Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery

This method is recommended for patients with thicker eyelids, excess skin, or additional fat around the upper eyelid.

Although recovery is slightly longer, the results are stable and natural.

  • Long-lasting results
  • Better correction of drooping eyelids
  • Suitable for complex eyelid anatomy
  • Can remove excess skin and fat when needed
02

Non-Incisional (Buried Suture) Method

Patients with thinner eyelids and minimal excess skin may be candidates for the buried suture technique.

This option is popular among younger patients seeking subtle enhancement with less downtime.

  • No large incision
  • Reduced swelling
  • Faster recovery
  • Minimal visible scarring
