Asia is a continent of breath-taking diversities. Different races and cultures flourish in this miniature macrocosm. The spry inhabitants of Eastern Asia, the dark and stocky dwellers of South Asia, the petite occupants of western Asia, etc. are all known to possess startling diversities in physical anatomy and appearance.
In medical usage, the term Asian or oriental is used generally to refer to someone possessing distinctly “Asian” traits; while occidental connotes to an individual possessing traits that are non-Oriental.
These terms are in no account geographically limited. A Native American, an Argentinean and an Indian can all possess Asian traits, while there are some Indians known to have eminently occidental features as well.
A double eyelid surgery or “Asian blepharoplasty” reshapes the skin around the eyes to create an upper eyelid with a crease. Approximately 50 percent Asians are born without the double eyelid crease a feature generally associated with Caucasian perceptions of beauty. It is small wonder then this surgery has a following in many having Asian traits.
Ellen Hwang, editor-in-chief of Jade Magazine which caters largely to Asian American women states, "Here in the U.S., even more than in Asia, the models and movie stars you see and who girls want to emulate are Caucasian.” And to be honest, Asian celebrities do form a minor section of the glamour business. Celebrity and role model to a lot of Asians, Jackie Chan, is known to have had an Asian blepharoplasty.
Whatever the motivations for an individual to opt for an Asian blepharoplasty, plastic surgeons at the Plastic Surgery Institute of California urge patients to weigh the ramifications of taking such a step. Ethnic sensibilities once ‘corrected’ are difficult to restore. Visit us for thorough and unbiased advice.
