| Summary: | Blepharoplasty is a common aesthetic procedure performed among affluent Asians. The most common group of population addressed with this surgery consists of elderly patients. Blepharoplasty is about sculpturing and contouring of the upper lid.

The aim of this article is to highlight the pathophysiological changes occurring in ageing lids and the various techniques for perfecting upper and lower lid blepharoplasty. |
