Surgical repair often aims at treating redundant skin or orbital fat malposition with a lower eyelid blepharoplasty. In manipulating the inferior orbital fat pads, a surgeon has many options including excision, repositioning, or augmentation with synthetic dermal filler, autologous fat grafts, or acellular dermal allografts <a href="#ref1">[1]</a>. The aim of this study is to find the best approach in preventing fat herniation reccurnce in lower lid blepharoplasty. <strong>Methods: </strong>The patients in study were classified into three groups depending on the used surgical technique, to test the most effective technique associated with minimal rate of lower fat pad recurrence after surgery. Two of these techniques include a muscular flap suspension from the orbicularis oculae muscle. <strong>Results: </strong>The two surgical techniques that include orbicularis oculi muscle suspension are associated with no recurrence of lower herniated fat pads after blepharoplasty. <strong>Conclusions:</strong> The suspension of orbicularis oculi muscle has an important role in enhancing the lower orbital septum and prevents the recurrence of the lower herniated fat pads.展开更多

Blepharoplasty improves the aesthetic appearance of this region, and multiple variants of the procedure have been reported. We here report our technique for modified lower lid blepharoplasty and cheek lift for patients with hypoplastic malar regions, which was introduced after observing prominent lower orbital rims in patients with flat malar prominences after blepharoplasty. Methods: This technique combines standard canthopexy and cheek-lift for rejuvenation of the mid-face with redraping of orbital fat and concurrent sub orbicularis oculi fat pad (SOOF) lift to 'double-breast' the lower orbital margin. Data on 33 patients who had undergone this modified lower lid blepharoplasty was collected retrospectively. Results: Thirty-three patients underwent the modified lower lid blepharoplasty resulting in smooth and youthful appearance of the malar region that was consistent and sustained. No recurrence of V-deformity was observed on a median follow-up of 14 months. twenty-two (66.6%) and 11 (33.3%) patients were pleased and satisfied with postoperative outcomes respectively. Three (9.1%) patients experienced minor postoperative complications and no major complication was observed. Conclusion: The proposed modified lower lid blepharoplasty is a safe and effective alternative to the existing technique with improved aesthetic outcomes and therefore is recommended in patients with flat malar prominences.展开更多
