title: Transcutaneous lower blepharoplasty with fat transposition.
abstract: Fat preservation lower lid blepharoplasty is the authors’ preferred technique for surgical rejuvenation of the aging lower lid. Key technical refinements are overlaid on a conceptual framework developed over the past 2 decades by several investigators. The use of the orbicularis oculi muscle suspension flap is a useful adjunct to the transcutaneous approach to lower lid blepharoplasty.
