Abstract

Asian double eyelid blepharoplasty and medial canthoplasty aim to enhance eye appearance in individuals of Asian descent. Traditional methods have limitations and may cause complications. This study introduces a microsurgical approach, offering improved precision and reduced scarring, applied to 37 patients over six years. While promising, this method requires specialized equipment and training, increasing complexity and cost. Further studies are needed to compare its efficacy with conventional techniques.
