According to the degree of the upper eyelid soft tissue laxity the level of eyebrow drooping and cosmetic patients personal requirements, we performed different surgical incisions respectively. Therefore, there were 39 cases upper-eyebrow incision, 31 cases under-eyebrow incision and 17 cases combined with upper and lower eyebrow incision.
