Updated muscle suspension and lower blepharoplasty.
The challenge of lower lid blepharoplasty surgery is to get the lid tight enough to smooth out wrinkles and not produce scleral show or round eye. The updated lower lid muscle suspension blepharoplasty can meet this challenge. The technique uses an easily placed muscle suspension suture to help support or elevate the lower lid.
