Delineating the cleft in upper blepharoplasty.
The subject of the esthetic qualities of the upper eyelid-eyebrow complex is discussed and how the cosmetic surgeon should diagnostically evaluate the problems occurring in this area. Emphasis is put on the other contributing factors that may contribute to blepharochalasis of the upper lid other than redundant skin limited to the upper lid space. A blepharoplasty technique with an incision at the supratarsal fold and evaluation of a skin muscle flap is discussed briefly.
