Asian blepharoplasty, also known as "double eyelid surgery," or colloquially "the surgery" is a type of cosmetic surgery where the skin around the eye is reshaped. The purpose of the procedure is to create an upper eyelid with a crease (i.e. "double eyelid") from an eyelid without a crease (i.e. "single eyelid", sometimes called "bedroom eyes" because of the sleepy look).

  • Asian blepharoplasty, also known as "double eyelid surgery," or colloquially "the surgery" is a type of cosmetic surgery where the skin around the eye is reshaped. The purpose of the procedure is to create an upper eyelid with a crease (i.e. "double eyelid") from an eyelid without a crease (i.e. "single eyelid", sometimes called "bedroom eyes" because of the sleepy look). Anatomically, there are a number of differences in the upper eyelids of East Asians compared with the differences in the eyelids of other races. While there are some Asians with a double eyelid and some without, there is also a large variation in the crease position (double eyelid size) of the East Asian upper eyelid. The upper lid fold can range from 1 mm above the eyelash line to about 10 mm. Several methods can be used to create the double eyelid—including the full-incisional, partial incision and no incision methods (e.g. the DST method). Each has its advantages depending on the patient's anatomy and desires. Asian blepharoplasties have been reported to be the most common aesthetic procedure in Taiwan and other parts of East Asia. This procedure has been reported to have some risk of complications, but is generally quite safe if done by an expert plastic surgeon. Practitioners of Asian double eyelid surgery include plastic surgeons, otolaryngologists, and Oral and maxillofacial surgeon (facial cosmetic surgeons), and ophthalmologists (oculoplastic surgeons). A procedure to remove the epicanthal fold is often performed in conjunction with an Asian blepharoplasty.
  • 割双眼皮，又称双眼皮手术或重睑术，是一种整容手术。主要流行于东亚和东南亚地区的黄色人种。 人类眼睑（眼皮）可分为两类：睁眼的时候上眼睑无自然褶皱为单睑（单眼皮），出现自然褶皱为重睑（双眼皮）。相对于其他人种，黄色人种的眼睛不很突出，而且眼睑较厚重，因此近一半的人是单睑。割双眼皮通过人为增加褶皱造成重睑，可以使得眼睛更突出，但不能使眼睛变得更大。 也有人反对割双眼皮，认为无需人为改变黄种人的自然特征，而且双眼皮并不一定使得容貌更美丽。
