Asian Blepharoplasty and the Eyelid Crease, 4th Edition

This is the fourth edition of a comprehensive reference on Asian blepharoplasty and eyelid crease surgery, written by William P. Chen, MD, FACS. It covers eyelid anatomy, surgical approaches, and revision surgery, with expanded guidance on managing complications and surgical pearls throughout.

The book includes eight new chapters on topics such as visual, physiological, and aesthetic factors affecting outcomes; techniques, principles, and benchmarks; depth of upper lid crease construction; ratios and proportions in double-eyelid segments; and failure analysis. It also presents a new paradigm for scoring suboptimal findings based on crease height, depth, and shape.

More than 450 step-by-step illustrations and a comprehensive video program support the text. The video program includes 18 primary surgery cases, 12 revisional surgery cases, 10 short step videos, 6 concept videos, and 22 edited compilations of clips.
