Discover Transformative Double Eyelid Surgery with Specialized Expertise

Understanding Asian Eyelid Surgery

Asian eyelid surgery, also called double eyelid surgery or Asian blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic eyelid procedure that creates a natural eyelid crease in patients with single eyelids or monolids. This upper eyelid surgery addresses the absence of a defined crease by surgically creating an eyelid fold that enhances eye appearance. The procedure removes excess tissue and orbital fat while establishing a stable crease height customized to individual preferences. Asian eyelid crease surgery maintains ethnic features, creating natural-looking results that provide subtle pretarsal show enhancement without westernized appearance.

Benefits of Asian Eyelid Surgery

Double eyelid surgery provides aesthetic and functional enhancement for Asian patients seeking a natural-looking, defined eyelid crease.

Creates Natural, Defined Double Eyelid Crease

Asian eyelid surgery forms a stable, well-contoured crease measuring 4–8 mm, tailored to each patient’s features. Using precise methods, Dr. Zoumalan achieves permanent, natural adhesion between skin and eyelid muscle. The refined fold enhances pretarsal show and eye expressiveness while preserving authentic ethnic features.

Enhances Eye Appearance While Preserving Ethnic Identity

This procedure refines Asian eye aesthetics without westernization. Respecting natural fat distribution and epicanthal structure, Dr. Zoumalan’s culturally sensitive approach creates subtle balance and symmetry. Patients gain refreshed, youthful definition while maintaining their cultural identity and natural facial harmony.

Addresses Multiple Eyelid Concerns Simultaneously

Asian blepharoplasty corrects excess skin, asymmetric or ill-defined folds, and puffiness from orbital fat. Through selective tissue removal and fat repositioning, Dr. Zoumalan creates uniform creases and, when needed, refines the epicanthal fold for comprehensive rejuvenation and functional, aesthetic balance.

Provides Long-Lasting, Beautiful Results

Double eyelid surgery delivers lasting definition with scars hidden in the fold. Most patients enjoy their improved eyelid contour for decades. Dr. Zoumalan’s meticulous technique ensures predictable, natural outcomes and high satisfaction, with swelling resolving in weeks to reveal harmonious, confident results.

Upper lid blepharoplasty and ptosis repair

Beautiful before and after of an UPPER LID BLEPHAROPLASTY AND PTOSIS REPAIR. This was a tough case where he presented with some fairly significant asymmetry between the two eyes. An upper eyelid surgery was performed to help balance the eyes. His left eyelid’s main issue was ptosis aka droopy eyelid, whereas the right upper lid had excess skin. Two different issues seen in two separeate eyelids in the same patient. He underwent an in office procedure to correct both issues at the same time, and here he is just a few weeks out of surgery and looking fantastic already.

Male Asian eyelid surgery and mole removal

Before and after male Asian eyelid surgery and mole removal. ⁠Asian eyelid surgery is a procedure I perform in BOTH females and males. In this case, my patient had significant asymmetry in his upper eyelids. In fact, his right eyelid had NO visible crease, while his left had a visible crease but it was not complete and slightly higher than what he desired. He also had a mole (birthmark) on his right eyelid that he wished to remove. This procedure was performed in the office under local anesthesia. His after photos were taken several months out from surgery, and as you can see, he looks great, with a noticeable improvement while still maintaining his masculine and natural look.

The Asian Eyelid Surgery Process

Your Asian eyelid surgery journey begins with a detailed consultation at Dr. Zoumalan’s Beverly Hills office. He examines eyelid anatomy—including crease shape, fat position, and epicanthal features—while discussing aesthetic goals. Together, you review before-and-after photos of various crease types and heights (4–8 mm) suited to your desired masculine or feminine look.

Performed under local anesthesia with light sedation, double eyelid surgery lasts about 30–60 minutes. Dr. Zoumalan makes precise incisions along the planned crease, adjusts fat and tissue as needed, and forms natural skin-to-muscle adhesion. Incisional methods use fine sutures for permanent definition. His meticulous technique ensures symmetry and minimal scarring.

  1. Immediately After: Mild swelling and bruising are normal. Cold compresses and elevation help minimize discomfort. Allpatients return home the same day with detailed care guidance.
  2. First Week: Sutures are removed around day 6–7. Swelling subsides, and the new crease becomes visible. Most patients resume work within 7–10 days.
  3. Weeks 2–3: Healing continues as the crease refines and looks increasingly natural. Light activity may resume, and residual asymmetry fades.
  4. Months 1–3: Final results appear as swelling resolves and scars fade within the crease. The refined eyelid contour enhances confidence while maintaining ethnic authenticity.
