Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

Specialist eyelid surgery by MOH-accredited plastic surgeons, covering double eyelid creation, ptosis correction, eye bag removal (lower blepharoplasty), and epicanthoplasty. Dr Terence Goh trained in South Korea specifically in blepharoplasty techniques.

AZATACA Plastic Surgery offers a full range of eyelid procedures, with Dr Terence Goh — past president of the Singapore Association of Plastic Surgeons — holding a specialist HMDP fellowship in blepharoplasty from South Korea, one of the global centres of excellence for eyelid surgery technique. The practice covers upper eyelid surgery including double eyelid creation (suture and incisional techniques), ptosis correction for drooping eyelids caused by levator muscle weakness or age-related laxity, and removal of excess upper eyelid skin (dermatochalasis). Lower eyelid procedures address under-eye bags through transconjunctival or subciliary approaches, with or without fat repositioning or removal. Epicanthoplasty — medial canthoplasty to open the inner corner of the eye — is available for patients seeking a broader, more open-eyed appearance. The practice also manages complex ptosis cases, congenital eyelid conditions, and eyelid reconstruction post-trauma or tumour excision, reflecting the team's reconstructive surgical background. All eyelid procedures are performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia depending on the extent of work. Recovery from upper eyelid surgery typically involves 1–2 weeks of swelling and bruising; lower eyelid procedures may require slightly longer healing. AZATACA's surgeons take a natural, balanced aesthetic approach appropriate for Asian eyelid anatomy — avoiding the overdone appearance that can result from inexperienced technique on Asian eyes.
