What technique does Dr. Lam use to create an Asian eyelid?
There are three main techniques for creation of an Asian upper eyelid crease. The suture, partial-incision, and full-incision methods. Dr. Lam does not use the suture or partial-incision techniques anymore for the simple reason that these types of procedures are more prone to fold loss over time. The full-incision method provides a permanent result in almost all cases. Also, no permanent sutures of any kind need to be kept in place at all. The full-incision method permits the greatest ability to modify the eyelid contour to the most desirable shape that you want.
