Abstract:
Objective To investigate the combination of blepharoplasty with rhytidectomy for correction of the aging face. Methods In addition to conventional rhytidectomy, the operation included transection of lower orbicularis palpebrorum ligament ,excision of the herniated orbital fat, suspension of lower obicularis palpebuorum muscle. Results The method has produced a satisfied result in 25 cases since 1999. Conclusion On the base of conventional rhytidectomy, we transect the lower orbicularis palpebrorum ligament to elevate and stabilize the orbicularis muscle to the periosteum above the level of lateral canthus, which improves nasopalpebromalar groove and obtains more youthful appearance of the mid face.
