Our eyes are one of the most critical factors that affect our facial symmetry and outward appearance. Because the eyes are the first thing we notice, their shape and outer cosmetic challenges can be highly noticeable. Blepharoplasty is an eyelid surgery that can be performed on the upper and lower lids to refine, brighten, and showcase the eyes. However, blepharoplasty is mainly designed for those with signs of aging, puffiness, or sagging eye skin, but it does not work for those with Asian facial features.
Asian blepharoplasty is a transformative surgery that is uniquely designed to help Asian ethnicities achieve a more expansive, brighter gaze without eliminating their stunning facial features. At Northwest Face & Body, Dr. Patel provides the leading Asian blepharoplasty for every patient.

Asian blepharoplasty is also called an Asian eyelid lift because it raises and widens the eyes. It creates a well-defined double eyelid crease and helps patients achieve a more relaxed and open eye. Asian eyelids often only have a single eyelid fold, making it challenging to apply makeup and even affecting their vision. The eyelids are also thicker and heavier, sometimes interfering with a symmetrical or bright appearance.
An Asian Eyelid Lift Seattle provides stunning, bright eyes while maintaining your ethnic features and beauty. Finding the right provider to perform your Asian blepharoplasty is the most essential step, as it is a delicate surgery that requires extensive training and experience. Dr. Patel can help you achieve a more prominent eye shape without losing your unique beauty.
The Effect Of Eyelids
Asian blepharoplasty in Seattle focuses on enhancing the natural contour of the upper eyelid to create a brighter, more defined eye shape while maintaining each patient’s unique ethnic features. Eyelids play a key role in defining facial expression and balance. The shape, position, and contour of the eyelids influence how open, alert, or youthful a face appears. Subtle differences, such as heaviness in the upper lids or asymmetry between the eyes, can alter perceived emotion and age.
Well-defined eyelids reflect light evenly across the eyes, creating a more vibrant and approachable appearance. When the eyelids are proportionate to the eyes and surrounding features, they enhance facial symmetry and draw attention to the eyes themselves, often improving both aesthetics and self-confidence.

How An Asian Eyelid Lift Is Performed
There are specific techniques that Dr. Patel uses to achieve Asian blepharoplasty Seattle, but each technique works for a different cosmetic challenge or goal. Dr. Patel uses advanced methods to provide patients with safe and effective eyelid lifts.
Medial Epicanthoplasty
Medial epicanthoplasty is a technique used that creates a prominent double-eyelid crease and shadow. Depending on the patient’s unique facial structure and eyelid crease, this method can use different incision types in the epicanthal fold or eyelid crease. Your surgeon can create multiple creases in the eyelid to give the eyes a softer and more open look.
During a consultation, Dr. Patel will find the best location for your cosmetic goals and determine how many eyelid creases are suited to your facial structure and iris size. He can also lift the eye at various points that will blend seamlessly with the rest of your facial features and help create prominent eyelashes.
Orbicularis Levator Fixation
The orbicularis levator fixation method uses advanced methods to create a permanent eyelid crease that promotes the definition of the eyelid shadow. This method is only used by advanced cosmetic surgeons with years of training and experience, as it requires in-depth knowledge of the eye and facial structures beneath.
During this Asian blepharoplasty Seattle technique, Dr. Patel will use a suture to attach the eye muscle to a higher location. This will affect how the eyelid moves and its height on the orbital socket. The levator is an anchor that widens the eyes and creates a bright appearance.
