Asian Cosmetic Surgery has become increasingly popular in Australia within the Asian community due to its increasing affordability, availability and acceptance. Asians have a history of suffering for beauty, with practices like food binding and neck rings being common place in some Asian cultures. Double eyelid surgery is by far the most common cosmetic surgery for Asians but other procedures like rhinoplasty and breast enlargements are increasing in popularity.

Cosmetic surgeons specialising in Asian cosmetic surgery are performing over 100 double eyelid surgeries a year and in some countries such as Japan and Korea, the procedure has become almost as common as mole removal. The double eyelid surgery creates a double fold in the eyelid and opens the eye, giving it a more rounded look. Although this procedure is more popular amongst women, men are also requesting the surgery in growing numbers. The procedure can be done in three different ways depending on the original shape of the eye, the amount of skin and fat needing to be removed and the desired outcome. All methods can be done under local or general anaesthetic and the down time is minimal with only a small amount of localised swelling and occasional bruising.

The most common procedures in Asian cosmetic surgery can arguably be described as aiming towards a more westernised ideal of beauty. This allegation is vehemently denied by both the recipients of surgery and the cosmetic surgeons performing the procedures. As one leading Asian Cosmetic Surgeon said, ?If a Caucasian has rhinoplasty to reduce the size of their nose, are they being Asianised?? The surgeon believes that all the procedures he performs are designed to make the most of Asian features, and are not designed to make the patients appear more Caucasian. He said that his clients never show photos of Caucasians when they are describing the ideal outcome of their procedure.

Although it is hard to determine the cause for the increase in cosmetic surgery for Asians, it seems that more and more people are lining up for the procedures. This increase in demand is seeing a surge in the number of specialists in the field, many of whom are coming from an Asian background giving them a better understanding of the desires and needs of their clientele.

Along with double eyelid surgery, other popular cosmetic procedures for Asians include:

* Brow lift surgery for Asians, which improves the shape and position of the eyebrow and opens the eye.

* Nose Jobs ? to reduce the size of the tip of the nose and nostrils, and to improve the shape of the bridge.

* Breast augmentation ? to increase the size of breasts.

* Botox and Fillers ? to reduce wrinkles and re-shape overly round faces.

* Laser Skin Whitening ? for whiter, brighter, clearer, tighter skin.

With the introduction of new less invasive procedures and the decline in the cost of equipment such as cosmetic laser machinery, the cost and availability of Asian cosmetic surgery within Australia should continue to become more accessible to the average Asian, and see a continuation in the growth of the field of specialty Asian cosmetic surgeons.
