Answer: Eyelid assymetry Thank you for your photo. It is difficult to exactly assess the symmetry of your eyes with the photo and your glasses. It is best to have an in-office examination to determine the amount of asymmetry of your eyelids, the existing crease if any, and the quality and function of the muscles and skin around your eyes. Then the right treatment plan can be created. Asian eyelid creation is often requires correcting both skin and muscle issues. Hope this helps!!Johnson C. Lee, MD Plastic Surgery

Answer: Asymmetric eyelid crease This is very common. Thank you for the photo. Roughly 1/3 of the Asian eyelid surgeries I perform are for some form of asymmetry. Essentially you need either an incision or combined incision and suture technique with anchoring technique to create a crease on the side in which you do not have a crease. In some cases it's smart to operate on both sides for better symmetry. Sutures are removed after seven days and in some cases patients look socially and professionally presentable in about two weeks although prolonged healing can occur.Internally on your right side you have naturally attachments between the tarsus and levator tendon that makes the crease when you open your eyes on on your left you lack that. You simply have to recreate that with surgery BUT only see a surgeon who clearly performs Asian eyelid surgery daily. . .if someone tells you they can perform the surgery but has no evidence of their work then go elsewhere.Chase Lay, MD
