The Short Incision Technique was pioneered by Choladhis Sinrachtanant, MD. It is a technique for creating double eyelids in Asian subjects using an incision of no more than 1 cm wide.
Daringly simple yet versatile, the Short Incision Technique has been the workhorse of Dr. Choladhis Sinrachtanant for over 25 years in almost all cases of Asian blepharoplasty surgery. It has since gained international acceptance and renown. His refined technique is simple to understand, straightforward to perform, and more importantly, creates beautiful results with minimal downtime.

"Overall, this is a very simple and elegant book. The photography in general and the diagrams are excellent. The content is very succinctly organized and presented. I especially like the large, fresh type which created very clean, open and fresh presentation. I believe a book such as this should be desired by any surgeon doing or planning to do this procedure."
