What Is Asian Facial Plastic Surgery?

Asian facial plastic surgery refers to procedures that consider the distinct anatomic features often found in patients of Asian heritage. These features include eyelid structure, nose shape, facial proportions, and skin qualities. The goal is not to “Westernize” the face but to enhance harmony, create balance, and highlight natural beauty. Dr. Chung applies advanced techniques to deliver refreshed, not overdone results.

Procedures Offered

Dr. Chung performs a wide range of procedures for patients of all backgrounds. For Asian patients, common requests include:

  • Double Eyelid Surgery (Asian Blepharoplasty): Creates or enhances an upper eyelid crease for brighter, more defined eyes.
  • Rhinoplasty: Refines nasal contours while respecting cultural features.
  • Facelift & Necklift: Uses advanced deep-plane techniques for natural rejuvenation.
  • Brow Lift: Subtly lifts the brows to open the eyes and restore a rested expression.
  • Fat Transfer to the Face: Restores volume to the cheeks, temples, or under-eyes.
  • Eyelid Surgery (Upper & Lower): Treats sagging lids or under-eye bags for smoother, refreshed eyes.

These procedures can be performed individually or in combination for comprehensive facial harmony.

Dr. Chung’s Approach

Dr. Chung trained at UT Southwestern, the nation’s top-ranked plastic surgery program, where he performed thousands of facial procedures and studied under pioneers in modern facelift techniques. He combines this elite background with an artistic eye and a deep respect for cultural identity. His approach is:

  • Meticulous: He pays attention to the smallest details for balanced, refined outcomes.
  • Personalized: Every surgical plan is tailored to your anatomy and goals.
  • Natural: Results are designed to look refreshed, never artificial.
  • Safe: Procedures are performed in our fully accredited surgery center with the highest safety standards.

Recovery & Results

Recovery depends on the procedure performed. Patients can generally expect swelling and bruising that improves within the first couple of weeks. Most procedures allow a return to social activities in 1–2 weeks, with results continuing to refine over several months. 

Dr. Chung and the Setty Plastics team provide thorough aftercare instructions and follow-up to ensure optimal healing and long-lasting results.

How is Asian facial plastic surgery different from traditional plastic surgery?

Asian facial plastic surgery takes into account the unique anatomical features common among patients of Asian descent, such as eyelid shape, nose structure, and skin thickness. The goal is to refine and enhance features while preserving cultural identity and harmony, rather than altering them to fit a Westernized standard.

Can multiple procedures be performed at the same time?

Yes. Many patients choose to combine procedures, such as rhinoplasty with eyelid surgery or facelift with fat transfer, to achieve more comprehensive facial balance. Dr. Chung carefully tailors each surgical plan to ensure safety, natural results, and efficient recovery when combining treatments.

What age is best to consider Asian facial plastic surgery?

There is no “perfect” age. Younger patients may seek double eyelid surgery or rhinoplasty to enhance definition and balance, while older patients may be more interested in facelifts, neck lifts, or eyelid surgery to address signs of aging. Dr. Chung personalizes recommendations based on your unique goals and anatomy rather than age alone.

How long do the results typically last?

Longevity depends on the procedure. Structural changes like rhinoplasty or eyelid surgery are usually permanent, while procedures targeting aging (like facelifts or brow lifts) provide long-lasting rejuvenation but cannot stop the natural aging process. Many patients enjoy results that last for years, especially with good skincare and sun protection.

Are there non-surgical options available for Asian patients?

Yes. In addition to surgery, Dr. Chung may recommend non-surgical treatments such as dermal fillers, Botox, laser resurfacing, or skin tightening treatments. These can be great options for patients seeking subtle enhancement, anti-aging maintenance, or improvements with minimal downtime.

Will people be able to tell I had surgery?

Dr. Chung’s approach emphasizes natural-looking results. The goal is for friends, family, and colleagues to notice that you look refreshed and balanced without being able to tell you had surgery. His meticulous technique ensures harmony and subtlety, avoiding an “operated” or artificial look.
