Effects of orbicularis oculi flap anchorage to the periosteum of the upper orbital rim on the lower eyelid position after transcutaneous blepharoplasty: Statistical analysis of clinical outcomes

摘要

Background: The aging process affects the skin, muscle, and fat of the eyes in a different manner. Their individual rejuvenation would require specific surgical treatments according to their particular demands. In the present study, we analyzed the effect of an orbicularis oculi muscle flap fixed to the superior orbital rim to prevent lower eyelid dislocation during transcutaneous blepharoplasty.
