title: Blepharoplastic: essential review.
abstract: In the periorbital the major aging changes are a drooping of the brow (brow ptosis), excessive accumulation of skin in the upper lid (dermatochalasis), and a prolapse of orbital fat, in the upper and lower lids caused by weakening of the septum and orbital connective tissues. The specific anatomical abnormalities of each individual patients should be identified and the relationship between each other should be identified in order to determine a correct surgical plan. In this review we will analyze different surgical techniques.
