Hi, I recently visited one of the most popular plastic surgery centers in Los Angeles for my double eyelid surgery consultation. My consultant recommended to take incisional+opening up my slight epicanthal fold to make dramatic caucasian-looking double eyelid, which she said it's more popular...not considering which method/double eyelid line would fit me the best. I just wish for a micro double eyelid, which I thought it could be easily done with non-incisional process. What you do think?

Answer: Incisional vs. Partial vs. Non-Incisional Asian Double Eyelid Surgery? An Asian blepharoplasty through an incision may yield natural results in your case. Seek consultations with eyelid specialists experienced in asian eyelid surgery.

Answer: Asian double eye-lid surgery Thank you for your question.Both the suture technique and traditional incisional technique are good techniques for the right patient. Typically if you have too much loose skin or if your upper eyelids are too full or puffy, the suture technique would be less than ideal. You will end up with an internal crease that may not be visible or a very "narrow" double eyelid crease. The incisional technique will give you a better result that is more looks better, and is more predictable and precise.I would also be careful with surgery to the epicanthal fold. Many patients regret having done this because of the scarring. It is often times obvious and nothing more can be done to revise it to improve the scar.Although nothing beats an in person consultation, looking at your picture I think an incisional technique may be a better option for you. You have quite a bit of upper eyelid skin that hangs down to your lashes. It is hard to tell if you have any excess fat in your upper eyelids, but probably not. An incisional technique would also help make your epicanthal area look "wider" or more "open", without having epicanthal fold surgery.
