Simultaneous lateral, anterior, and posterior (SLAP) lower-lid blepharoplasty.
We report a hybrid of procedures for correcting the aging lower eyelid--transconjunctival blepharoplasty, skin blepharoplasty, and skin-muscle blepharoplasty--that maximizes the strengths of these procedures while minimizing their shortcomings. Our procedure, a simultaneous lateral, anterior, and posterior blepharoplasty, simultaneously attacks the lateral canthal angle, the anterior lamella, and the posterior lamella of the eyelid.
