Asian Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty is plastic surgery on the eyelids. A meticulous attention to ethnic ideals of beauty is extremely important in any cosmetic plastic surgery procedure, but especially in facial plastic surgeries like blepharoplasty. Blepharoplasty improves the contour and shape of the upper eyelid especially among Asian patients. Some Asians have an excessively low or even absent upper eyelid fold. Others have a fold at the inner part of the upper eyelid called the medial epicanthus. During a blepharoplasty on an Asian patient, the surgeon incises the upper eyelid at the future upper eyelid crease and sutures the appropriate layers together in order to develop an upper eyelid crease. Other blepharoplasty techniques involve sutures through the upper eyelid to develop the upper eyelid crease without any incision. Surgeons correct medial epicanthal folds by Z-incisions, which move skin around in order to correct the abnormal folds. Occasionally a doctor removes excess upper eyelid fat to accentuate the upper eyelid fold in a blepharoplasty on an Asian patient.

House Calls
A house call, or Physician house call, is an act of customer service where the doctors goes to the consumers home, rather than the consumer visiting the suppliers place of business. House calls are most often associated with doctor house calls. There are still doctors making house calls.
The physician-led multidisciplinary team provides comprehensive, patient-centered care for any condition, from the simple problems to the very complex, in the patient’s own environment. Thanks to modern technology and our sophisticated, multi-faceted delivery system, we can do more tests and procedures in our patient’s home or place of business than other primary care physicians do in their office.
House call doctors are equipped to perform most procedures normally performed in a medical office. House call doctors utilize electronic medical records and will coordinate home health and hospice services, mobile imaging services, durable medical equipment services, laboratory services, and specialist referral services.
House call doctors acts as the primary care physician or as augmentation to or as an interim physician to the patients’ present medial team. Doctor’s House calls provide post hospital stabilization service to physicians, insurance plans, and hospitals to mitigate hospital re-admissions.
