| Popis: | A great variety of anatomical factors must be considered to predict the lid crease level, the most important landmark in blepharoplasty The superficial aspect of the eyelid and the skin fold depend more on the deeper layers of orbital anatomy than on the skin itself The main key to the patient’s satisfaction is the ability to predict the possible result of surgery Symmetry and regularity are the primary aims of blepharoplasty Simple and complicated cases should be differentiated preoperatively The approach to the orbit is safer using a layer by layer technique and separating the different sheaths by hydrodissection Most complications are iatrogenic and can be avoided by careful preoperative planning of the blepharoplasty If there is doubt about the ideal correction, undercorrection rather than overcorrection should be the approach The majority of asymmetry complications are predictable and can be managed by supplementary unilateral interventions Associated pathology should be be corrected in all cases of blepharoplasty |
