Asian Eyelid RejuvenationAsian Eyelid Rejuvenation
plastic surgeon specializing in the midface area, which includes, eyes, eyelids, brows, and the area around the mouth and cheeks.
I take a conservative approach to upper eyelid rejuvenation so that the Asian lid retains its natural look. I have found that clients want to avoid the “wide-eyed” look and enjoy positive results that are noticeable but don’t look “done”.
I invite you to take a look at Aesthetic Vision Center’s Eyelid Rejuvenation results in this brochure and ask about a free consultation.
1 ~ Elective Services Not Covered By Insurance. However some upper eyelid rejuvenation candidates may be covered by insurance after passing an in-office field of vision evaluation.
Over time, your upper eyelid may droop only slightly or it may cover most of the pupil. In some cases, this droopiness can restrict and even block normal vision. Dr. Higa will perform upper eyelid surgery to “open” the eyes for a more alert, youthful result.
Concern: Puffy Lower Eyelids In the case of lower eyelids, puffiness, bags, and wrinkles are the most common problems. Fat may be removed or redistributed, and skin wrinkles may be smoothed with the Fraxel® 1500 Skin Rejuvenation Laser.
