[BACKGROUND] The infraorbital region is one of the most complex and esthetically critical areas of the face. Age-related changes, such as infraorbital groove and infraorbital fat bulging, frequently coexist and vary significantly among indi…

[BACKGROUND] Facial reanimation after total flaccid facial paralysis requires natural smile animation with participation of both periorbital and perioral compartments. [OBJECTIVE] To define detailed anatomy of gracilis muscle flap and inve…

A 57-year-old woman presented for evaluation of spastic left eyelid closure that began 1 to 2 weeks after receiving injections of poly- l -lactic acid dermal filler to the bilateral temples and cheeks at a local Medspa. External examination…

Botulinum toxin (BoNT) is widely used in the management of neurological disorders and in aesthetic medicine. Although generally safe, facial injections may be associated with complications with relevant functional or aesthetic impact. This …

[PURPOSE] Corticosteroid use is commonly associated with an increase in intraocular pressure (IOP). Our retrospective study aims to evaluate the effect of short-term periocular topical triamcinolone acetonide (TA) use on IOP. [METHODS] A r…

[BACKGROUND] Disregarding the influence of Hering's law of equal innervation, which dictates conjugate movement of the eyelids during saccadic eye movements, in blepharoptosis correction leads to unsatisfactory surgical outcomes. The author…

[PURPOSE] The vasculature within the lower eyelid fat pads in bilateral lower eyelid blepharoplasty (BLLB) surgery is not well described. Characterization of vasculature may help prevent excessive bleeding by describing the locations where …

[BACKGROUND] The orbicularis oculi muscle folding (OMF) is an innovative surgical approach in lower blepharoplasty that enhances the appearance of the lower eyelids. [OBJECTIVES] To evaluate the use of OMF for auto augmentation of eyelid h…

Upper blepharoplasty is one of the most commonly performed aesthetic procedures, with scar quality being a critical determinant of patient satisfaction. This review evaluates various surgical and postoperative strategies to optimize cosmeti…

[BACKGROUND] Owing to the prevalence of congenital single eyelids among Asians, methods are needed to create a double-eyelid fold. Incisional blepharoplasty is considered an ideal method for this purpose. The classical approach tends to cre…

[INTRODUCTION] Lower eyelid blepharoplasty is a widely performed procedure to address periorbital aging. While traditional techniques primarily focus on the lower eyelid, extended lower blepharoplasty provides a more comprehensive approach …

[BACKGROUND] Double-eyelid surgery is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures in East Asia. The two main techniques include mini-incisional buried suture methods and incision-based operations. Mini-incisional approaches are f…

The double-eyelid crease formation is primarily influenced by the attachment of the levator aponeurosis to the skin. The buried-suture method of double-eyelid blepharoplasty has gained popularity due to advantages like minimal scarring, fas…

[BACKGROUND] Epicanthoplasty is frequently performed in Asian populations, but overcorrection-resulting in undesirable aesthetic and functional outcomes-remains a persistent challenge. [PURPOSE] This study investigates the efficacy of a no…

This retrospective single-surgeon series evaluated a composite lower-eyelid rejuvenation technique that combines a transconjunctival, door-shaped orbital septal fat flap with granular autologous fat precision grafting. Consecutive patients …

Extraocular disorders and their surgical management can significantly influence corneal astigmatism and higher-order aberrations (HOAs). This review aimed to evaluate the relationship between extraocular conditions, their surgical correctio…

[BACKGROUND] Inappropriate facial scarring can lead to significant physical and psychosocial morbidity. There is a need to better understand how scar perception varies across ethnic groups, and how it impacts broader quality-of-life domains…

[PURPOSE] To evaluate the effects of upper eyelid blepharoplasty on corneal topography and higher-order optical aberrations (HOAs). [METHODS] Seventy-seven patients (154 eyes) who underwent upper eyelid blepharoplasty for dermatochalasis a…

[OBJECTIVE] Through clinical intraoperative observation, gross anatomy and histologic observation, the authors will preliminarily clarify the detailed structures of various tissues related to the upper eyelid opening and closing movement an…
