Double eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a specialized cosmetic procedure for patients of Asian descent who lack a defined crease in their upper eyelids. The objective of the surgery is to create a prominent fold in each of the upper eyelids to achieve a brighter, more rested appearance while preserving the patient’s ethnic identity.
An extremely delicate procedure, double eyelid surgery requires a surgeon with the ability to achieve natural results that accentuate your best features, without stripping you of your cultural background. With years of experience and countless successful procedures, Dr. Sadati has developed a reputation for delivering high quality double eyelid surgery.

AN OVERVIEW OF DOUBLE EYELID SURGERY
Dr. Sadati will begin the blepharoplasty procedure by making precise incisions in the upper eyelids. To ensure discreet results, he will take special care to ensure each incision is well hidden within the natural contours of the eyes. From there, Dr. Sadati will remove excess fat and skin from the eyelids, before placing very fine sutures to close the incisions and form the desired creases. A relatively quick procedure, double eyelid surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia and typically lasts between one and three hours.
It is important for patients to be aware that there is a substantial recovery period associated with blepharoplasty. In the first few days following surgery, swelling and bruising is to be expected and should subside within one week. To ensure a swift recovery, you will be directed to lubricate the sutures with ointment, keep the area clean, apply ice to reduce swelling, elevate the head at all times and avoid strenuous activity for at least one week following the procedure.
Immediately following the procedure, you will be directed to lubricate the sutures with ointment, apply ice to reduce swelling and elevate the head at all times. Patients can typically return to work within two weeks, with a full recovery occurring within several weeks.
