Middle Eastern Blepharoplasty in Newport Beach
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, can address a range of concerns for patients of Middle Eastern descent, offering solutions tailored to their unique needs and aesthetic goals.
When approaching Middle Eastern eyelid aesthetics, it’s important to recognize this group’s unique characteristics and preferences while acknowledging similarities with other ethnicities, such as Hispanic patients with thicker eyelid skin. Middle Eastern patients often favor an upward slant to the eyes, creating a beautiful almond shape.
Bright-Eyed and Refreshed
Say goodbye to tired-looking eyes with a rejuvenated and vibrant appearance.
Almond Perfection
Achieve a beautifully balanced almond-shaped eye while staying true to your unique beauty.
Cultural Elegance, Preserved
Enhance your features while honoring and celebrating your cultural identity.
How is Middle Eastern Blepharoplasty Different?
Because Middle Eastern patients typically seek more almond-shaped eyes, procedures like a temporal lift are particularly popular among this demographic.
Another common request is medial epicanthoplasty, a technique often associated with Asian eyelid surgery. This procedure helps soften mild epicanthal folds, which some Middle Eastern patients may have, reducing the hooded appearance at the inner corners of the eyes. This subtle adjustment can enhance the overall harmony of their eyelid contour while maintaining a natural and refined look.
One common concern is dark circles under the eyes. These can result from hollowing caused by a naturally flatter cheekbone structure or age-related volume loss. Darker pigmentation in the under-eye area also adds to this issue. While fillers can provide temporary improvement, combining blepharoplasty with facial fat transfer can create further dramatic and lasting results by filling the hollows and brightening the area.
Another issue often addressed is crepiness, or fine wrinkles around the eyes. These delicate lines are a natural part of aging, as eyelid skin is thin and particularly prone to wrinkling across all ethnicities. Treatments like light chemical peels and upper eyelid blepharoplasty can help smooth the skin and restore a more youthful, refreshed appearance for Middle Eastern patients.
Newport Beach plastic surgeon Dr. Goretti Ho Taghva carefully observes and respects cultural beauty standards, particularly in brow positioning. While high-arching brows might be desirable for other ethnicities, Middle Eastern patients usually prefer a more naturally balanced brow height, which aligns with their beauty ideals.
When addressing Middle Eastern eyelid aesthetics, incorporating these cultural preferences and choosing procedures like epicanthoplasty can help create outcomes that resonate with patients’ unique desires while celebrating their natural beauty.
