A while back I had posted a blog on Asian blepharoplasty. For a refresher on this eyelid surgery procedure, it involves reshaping the upper eyelid to create a crease in the lids. The resulting look is very Caucasian and gives the appearance of wider eyes.

Individuals having Oriental eyes and sleepy eyes usually opt for an Asian blepharoplasty or double eyelid surgery. Very often, the reasons for this particular plastic surgery procedure are purely cosmetic.

Christopher Johnson, a student, has taken the regular Asian blepharoplasty a step further and got himself a pair of anime eyes. Anime is a very popular style of the Japanese comic book and video art form of manga. The characters are characterized by their eyes, which are doe-eyed and larger than average.

While it is not impossible for plastic surgery to fashion such a look, it is certainly counted an extreme procedure. The cosmetic procedure required colored lenses to be inserted into Johnson’s eyes, without which there was a danger of them falling off.

While Johnson may not have been alone in wishing for anime features (it does have a large cult following), the pursuit of such an extreme method of physical alteration can at best be viewed with caution.

At the Plastic Surgery Institute of California we review the emotional as well as physical health of a patient before recommending a surgical procedure. While we keep an open mind fore new plastic surgery procedures, we are conservative in our views of patient safety, which is always given first preference.
