About 50% of individuals of Asian descent are born with a single upper eyelid without the fold or crease. This the natural form of the Asian eye, but some with a single upper eyelid would prefer a different shape for their eyes. Asian eyelid surgery can create the crease or fold in the upper eyelid, making a double eyelid. At City Facial Plastics, we offer Asian eyelid surgery at our clinic on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
Dr. Linkov is an exceptional facial plastic surgeon, possessing the skill and artistry needed for intricate procedures like Asian eyelid surgery.

The goal of an Asian eyelid surgery is not to create a Caucasian eye. The objective is to produce a beautiful double eyelid Asian eye that matches and blends with the facial features. With single eyelids, the eyes can look narrow. Adding the small crease can make a significant difference in the overall appearance of the eyes and face. Some advantages of a double upper eyelid include:
Changing the shape of the eye and upper eyelid is a very personal decision. For some, changing their eyes makes them feel more confident and attractive.

I cannot say enough about Dr. Linkov and his staff. From the initial consult to day of surgery and post op appointments, I have had nothing but an outstanding experience. During the consult Dr. Linkov went over everything in detail and was honest compassionate throughout. I didn’t feel rushed and he answered all my questions. Leading up to the surgery, Bianca, the receptionist, was amazing. She was very responsive/professional with all my questions, and all the necessary pre-operative preparations that needed to be done. During the surgery Dr. Linkov and his team were wonderful. I felt comfortable and calm during a long surgery. Dr. Linkov followed up afterwards to make sure I was doing well. If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Highly recommend!
