Symptoms:
Hooded, puffy eyelid skin with no obvious crease or a small indistinct crease, making it impossible to apply eyeliner unless lids are taped. Fierce angry look due to lack of a definitive crease.
Description of Procedure:
This uniquely oriental operation defines the eye without ‘westernizing’ them; making the eyelids more harmonious with the rest of the face and making the eyes look larger. Dr Lim uses a short incision (12 to 15 mm) technique that leaves a fine scar which virtually disappears over time. Upper eyelid fat is removed at the same time to create crisp upper eyelids.
Anaesthesia:
- Local Anaesthesia with or without Intravenous sedation.
Hospital Stay:
Downtime:
- You will be able to walk out of the clinic
- Sutures out at 4 days
- Normal activities can be resumed almost immediately with sunglasses
- Bruising is usually minimal but swelling will invariably be present
- Old lax thin skin is more prone to bruising! This will resolve by 2 weeks (so if you fit this description you will need to plan to be socially absent for 2 weeks)
