Asian Eyelid Surgery in Beverly Hills & Los Angeles
For individuals of East Asian descent seeking subtle, natural enhancement to their upper eyelids, Asian blepharoplasty offers a sophisticated, culturally sensitive solution. At our Beverly Hills practice, Dr. Kami Parsa provides highly specialized double eyelid surgery tailored to the unique anatomy of the Asian eyelid—delivering results that enhance definition while honoring ethnic identity.
A Local Approach to a Cultural Procedure
Approximately 50% of people of East Asian descent are born with a defined upper eyelid crease. The remaining 50% have what is commonly known as a monolid, which lacks a visible crease. In diverse cities like Los Angeles—where more than 14% of residents identify as Asian—there is growing demand for eyelid procedures that maintain cultural authenticity.
Dr. Parsa’s approach to Asian eyelid surgery is rooted in listening. During every consultation, he takes the time to understand each patient’s goals, anatomy, and cultural context. His objective is not to “Westernize” the face, but to enhance what is already beautiful—delicately creating a natural-looking crease that aligns with the patient’s facial proportions and aesthetic ideals.
Procedure Overview: Customized for You
Asian blepharoplasty can be performed using two primary techniques: incisional or non-incisional (suture-based). While the non-incisional method allows for quicker recovery and no visible scar, it is typically less durable. Dr. Parsa often recommends the incisional method for its precision and long-lasting results—especially when tailoring the procedure to each patient’s facial anatomy and eyelid thickness.
Common crease designs include:
- Parallel crease – A soft, clean fold that runs parallel to the lash line
- Temporal flare crease – Tapers gently upward toward the outer corner
- Nasal slant crease – Begins closer to the inner corner and slopes naturally outward
Each crease type is discussed in detail during your one-on-one consultation, where Dr. Parsa will also evaluate skin laxity, fat distribution, and orbital structure to create a fully customized surgical plan.
Most procedures last between 1–2 hours and are performed under local anesthesia or light sedation (Monitored Anesthesia Care), allowing patients to recover more comfortably and safely.

Dr. Parsa and his team understand that patients in Beverly Hills and the broader Los Angeles area are often balancing full schedules and discerning expectations. That’s why the entire process—from consultation through recovery—is designed to be smooth, informative, and supportive.

Recovery and Aftercare
Patients can expect some swelling and bruising during the first week, with most able to return to work or social events in 5–7 days. Applying cold compresses and taking natural supplements like Arnica and Bromelain can help reduce inflammation. Dr. Parsa provides detailed instructions to support a safe, comfortable recovery and is always available for follow-up questions.
Anesthesia: Comfort Without General Risk
Asian eyelid surgery is typically performed using local anesthesia, with or without light sedation. This allows patients to avoid the risks and side effects associated with general anesthesia, such as nausea or respiratory support. Patients remain comfortable and unaware during the procedure while breathing naturally—often resulting in a faster, smoother recovery.
