Your First Step to a Brighter Future
Consultation and Preparation for Your Asian Blepharoplasty
Your initial consultation with Dr. Athré will be a time to share your vision for the procedure and discuss any questions you may have. He’ll review your medical history, examine your eyelid structure, and create a tailored treatment plan. In preparation, patients should avoid certain medications and supplements, such as aspirin, which can affect healing. Dr. Athré will provide complete pre-procedure guidance to ensure you feel informed and comfortable.
Gentle Touch, Dramatic Impact
What is the Asian Blepharoplasty procedure like?
Dr. Athré starts by carefully measuring and marking the area to be treated, focusing on facial symmetry and your desired outcome. Once the area is prepared, a local anesthetic with optional sedation is used to keep you comfortable throughout the procedure. The anesthesia also minimizes any bleeding.
During surgery, small amounts of skin and fat are adjusted to create a naturally defined crease without disrupting the unique contour of the eyelid. Each incision is closed with fine sutures that encourage minimal scarring, helping the eyelid to heal smoothly and with long-lasting results.
Anesthesia Options
Most Asian blepharoplasty procedures are completed with local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. If combined with other facial procedures, such as a brow lift or facelift, the anesthesia method will match the needs of your combined treatments.

With proper care, the results of Asian blepharoplasty can last for decades.
