Asian eye correction is a plastic surgery procedure that makes the Asian shape of the eye slits closer to the European one. The procedure involves removing the characteristic skin folds in the corners of the eyes and forming a fold on the upper eyelid.

General information

The specific shape of the eyes is one of the most characteristic features of the Mongoloid race. The eye slits in this case have a number of differences from the European form:

  • Mongoloids have an epicanthus - a fold of skin in the corners of the eyes;
  • supraorbital folds of the upper eyelid are either completely absent or smoothed out;
  • narrow incision of the eye slit;
  • the skin of the eyelids is thicker;
  • the eyebrows, as a rule, are located somewhat higher than in Europeans.

From an aesthetic point of view, the European form of the eye slit cannot be placed higher than the Asian one. However, recently more and more people dare to correct Asian eyes.

This plastic surgery consists in giving the eye slit a shape that best matches the European one. To do this, a specific fold is formed on the upper eyelid, the epicanthus is removed, and a number of additional measures are taken.

Procedure

Preparation

Most often, local anesthesia is used for Asian eye correction. The patient must undergo a series of examinations before the procedure, take a blood test for clotting, infection, etc. You should also consult an ophthalmologist to clarify the desired result of the operation.

Asian eye correction procedure

With the Asian eyelid correction surgery technique that does not involve making incisions, the plastic surgeon places stitches on the eyelid that form a fold in the upper eyelid. With this procedure, millimeter-sized punctures remain on the skin. However, the technique that allows for incisions is more reliable, although more invasive. If necessary, the epicanthus and excess tissue are removed. After this, cosmetic stitches are applied to the incision. The operation lasts about an hour.

Rehabilitation period

After the Asian eye surgery, a bandage is applied to the eyes, which should remain on the face for several hours. The stitches are removed on about the fifth day. The swelling goes down after a few weeks. The patient must strictly follow the doctor's instructions, avoid physical activity, visiting saunas, solariums and baths.

Indications and contraindications

Correction of Asian eyes is carried out exclusively at the request of the patient for aesthetic purposes.

Although the aesthetic advantages of the European type of eye shape are questionable, the subjective evaluative perception of appearance sometimes forces many young people to change the shape of their eyes for one reason or another.

Contraindications

This operation is not performed in case of poor blood clotting, a number of endocrine diseases and infectious diseases.

Complications

The appearance of hematomas and bruises is a natural process that should not be considered a complication. This phenomenon goes away after a few days. On the other hand, more unpleasant consequences are possible, such as infection of wounds, their inflammation.

Prices and clinics


Since the correction of Asian eyes is a fairly large-scale intervention, not every plastic surgeon can perform such an operation with high quality. Only an experienced specialist with a well-equipped office can guarantee an acceptable result. The price for the correction of Asian eyes varies depending on the location of the operation. The price is also affected by the chosen method of this procedure.
