Fat Management in Lower Lid BlepharoplastyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
This article outlines the evolution of our approach to lower eyelid blepharoplasty with a specific focus on the importance of management of fat in the periocular region. A discussion of various surgical approaches with their advantages and disadvantages is presented, and the importance of maintaining a safe lower eyelid is emphasized. A comprehensive and systematic approach to restoration of the lower eyelid is highlighted with specific postoperative results.[...]© Thieme Medical PublishersGet connected:Table of contents | Abstract | Full text (Source: Facial Plastic Surgery)

Large orbital osteoma arising from orbital roof: Excision through an upper blepharoplasty incision.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We report a case of intraorbital, pedicled osteoma originating from the left orbital roof. The patient's ophtalmological examination revealed; only light perception due to the severe amblyopia and posterior capsular opacification in the right eye, and complete visual acuity in the left. His left eye was proptotic and directed to downward lateral gaze position. Using upper blepharoplasty incision, the osteoma was completely excised. There were not any postoperative complications and all ocular symptoms in the left eye were resolved after 1 month. PMID: 19839914 [PubMed - in process] (Source: Orbit)

plays a vital role in periorbital rejuvenation. Mostly it is part of anti-ageing correcting measures and in some to resolve hereditary problems. It is also used as an access to other aesthetic procedures. The eyelids are divided into anterior, middle and posterior lamellae. They contain pre and retro septal fats. Orbicularis oculi, levator and Müller's muscles are closely involved. Tarsus and septum act as curtain rail and curtain respectively with the medial and lateral canthal ligaments playing a role in the stabilisation of the lids.

The usual techniques of lower blepharoplasty do not include the treatment of the palpebromalar junction. The various options of vertical facelift of the average third of the face in general require a temporal or temporofrontal approach. The technique of suspension of the orbicularis oculi muscle within the framework of a blepharoplasty of the four eyelids, described by Adamson in the USA and conveyed by Botti in Europe, allows a treatment of the ageing of the eyelids and a vertical rise of the malar area. This muscular suspension ensures a solidity in the fixing of soft tissues, authorizing a cutaneous section higher t...

Blending of the eyelid–cheek junction and removal of protruding fat: an intraoral approach to blepharoplasty of the lower eyelidEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Blepharoplasty is one of the most common aesthetic procedures done today. The protruding fat and lid–cheek junction are the most conspicuous signs of aging that need attention. During zygomatic reduction by an intraoral approach we found occasionally that the orbital fat can be exposed through the perforated periosteum at the inferior obital rim. We therefore developed a new blepharoplasty procedure using an oral approach.Seventeen patients aged from 26 to 38 years, of whom six had had a previous unsuccessful blepharoplasty and one had a history of injury to the lower lid, were studied. The operation was done u...

Arcus Marginalis Release II Via Endoscopic Midface-LiftEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract Tear troughs in combination with midfacial ptosis may be early and synergistic signs of aging. Premaxillary and suborbicularis oculi fat (SOOF) descent decreases soft tissue volume covering the orbital rim, while prolapsing retroseptal fat actually underscores the resulting tear trough shadow. This volume change precedes skin redundancy. Thus, volume redistribution avoiding external skin incisions is the adequate treatment. De la Plaza’s transconjunctival lower lid blepharoplasty is a reliable tool for arcus marginalis release. For patients also requiring an endoscopic midface-lift, even the trans...

Management of the lower lid in male blepharoplasty.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Rejuvenation of the lower eyelid blepharoplasty in men requires consideration of different esthetic norms than those considered in women. Although both require a thorough understanding of anatomy, and the process of aging in each includes descent of the globe, pseudoherniation of the orbital fat, and skeletonization of the inferior bony rim, the goals for male blepharoplasty differ. The authors review the primary surgical approaches in lower lid blepharoplasty (transconjunctival skin-muscle flap) and the currently described techniques used to address displaced orbital fat, with special consideration of the male patient...

Arcus Marginalis Release in Blepharoplasty I: Technical FacilitationEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract Resection of intraorbital fat compartments in lower-lid blepharoplasty has been widely replaced by their realignment over the orbital rim. For older patients this usually includes an open subciliary approach with skin resection and orbicularis muscle modification. In younger patients this may be done transconjunctivally. Fixation of the adipose tissue is controversial. Whereas reliance of realignment on spontaneous prolapse may be unpredictable, suture fixations may be tedious and even cause scleral show or ectropion. A monofilament, double-armed, polypropylene suture on bent straight needles can be...

Abstract Apart from what may be considered complications, the intervention of any aesthetic surgery can have undesired effects (scar sequelae, normal regional dynamic disorders, edema, iatrogenic acceleration of the aging process in the area). The orbital region is particularly sensitive to these undesirable effects due to its situation and the importance of the eyelids in facial sign language. The sum of these undesirable effects and not infrequent complications often place the plastic surgeon in a compromising situation. It is for this reason that in recent years we have made a special effort to analyze ca...
