Double Eyelid Surgery/Epicanthoplasty Singapore

Double Eyelid Surgery/Epicanthoplasty is a procedure used to increase the width of the eyes giving the appearance of bigger and more attractive eyes. The inner edge of the eyelids, also known as the Mongolian fold, is a prominent feature for Asians. As the Mongolian fold extends across the eyes, it often covers the medial Canthus and can make the eyes look smaller and awkward looking. Eye makeup and eyelid tape will sometimes be used as a way to create a temporary eyelid crease for patients who dislike single eyelids. However, a more permanent method to create double eyelids in Singapore will often involve incisional methods, surgical procedures and plastic surgery techniques performed by a plastic surgeon. Suture methods (stitch methods), blepharoplasty surgery or upper eyelid surgery that affects the eyelid skin should only be carried out by board certified plastic surgeons.

Medial Epicanthoplasty

In the case of a prominent fold at the inner edge of the eyelids (Mongoloid fold), Dr Samuel uses a modified Uchida technique to perform corrective surgery.

This technique eliminates the Mongolian folds neatly without the need for prominent scars. The results are larger, more attractive and natural-looking eyes.

Lateral Epicanthoplasty

The outer aspect of the eye may be “droopy”, rounded or narrow. In order to correct this, a simple Y-V incision on the inner aspect of the eyelid is performed and the corner of the eye attached firmly to underlying periosteum. This allows for a wider, more attractive eye with an improved slant.
