Autologous Fat Grafting for Treating Blepharoplasty-induced Lower Eyelid Retraction

Autologous fat grafting for blepharoplasty-induced lower eyelid retraction offers potential for a long-term solution while avoiding the morbidity associated with posterior lamellar spacer grafts. By combining traditional methods of lifting the retracted lower eyelid with autologous fat grafting, both functional and aesthetic concerns can be successfully addressed in these patients.

Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty

In no other area of facial aesthetic surgery is such a fragile balance struck between form and function as that in eyelid modification. Owing to the delicate nature of eyelid structural composition and the vital role the eyelids serve in protecting the visual system, iatrogenic alterations in eyelid anatomy must be made with care, precision, and thoughtful consideration of existing soft tissue ...

Lower Eyelid Pinch Blepharoplasty

Fat preservation technique of lower-lid blepharoplasty.

This refinement of lower-lid blepharoplasty replaces bulging fat of the lower lid back into the orbit. Capsulopalpebral repair strengthens the orbital septum to retain the orbital fat in the orbit. The author describes his operative technique, focusing closely on relevant anatomy. (Aesthetic Surg J 2001;21:450-459.).

Fat management in lower lid blepharoplasty.

Aging of the lower eyelid involves a complex series of anatomic and physiologic changes that occur over time. Rejuvenation of the lower eyelid complex must systemically address the various contributions of soft tissue laxity, pseudoherniation of orbital fat, and loss of periorbital volume. This article outlines the evolution of our approach to lower eyelid blepharoplasty with a specific focus o...
