Abstract:
Objective:To perform the rhytidectomy of the lateral canthus in combination with blepharoplasty for youth and middle-aged persons.Methods:The rhytidectomy of the lateral canthus with subdermal incision were used in 36 patients at the age of 28~45 years who underwent simultaneous blepharoplasty.The 36 cases were divided into four groups of 28~30,31~35,36~40,and 41~45 years old in order to observe and evaluate the changes of the lateral canthus before and after operation.The keys to operative technique were presented.Results:Postoperative and follow-up results demonstrated the effects were desirable in the cases lower than 40 years of age who showed slight-middle degree crow's feet wrinkles,but unsatisfactory results were showed in the cases above 40 years of age who showed rough-deep degree wrinkles at the lateral canthus preoperation.Conclusion:The rhytidectomy with subdermal incision is an excellent method to reconstruct the skin structure and to eliminate slight-middle degree wrinkles.
