East Asian blepharoplasty

East Asian blepharoplasty, more commonly known as double eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes the skin around the eye to create a crease in an upper eyelid that naturally lacks one. The percentage of East Asian women who naturally have upper eyelid creases varies among studies, with reported amounts ranging from 41% in Koreans to 70-83% in Chinese and Japanese. This surgery may be performed on ethnic East Asians, including people of Chinese, Japanese and Korean descent. The primary goal is to alter the eyelid's appearance, making the eyes appear larger and, to some tastes, more attractive due to a 'wide-eyed' and expressive appearance.
