ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore a new method for correcting the senile blepharochalasis and depression of the upper eyelid.Methods:Fourteen female patients with blepharochalasis and depression of upper eyelid were treated with subcutaneous tissue flap filling during eyebrow lifting. The under-eyebrow incision was used to remove the loose skin and lift the eyebrow, and a subcutaneous tissue flap was made to fill up the upper eyelid depression.Results:All the incisions were healed in one stage without complications such as infection and subcutaneous hematoma. 12 patients were followed up for more than 6 months. In the 3rd month after operation, 1 patient had obvious scar under the eyebrow, 1 patient had skin traction wrinkles at the eyebrow. After 6 months, the incision scar was not obvious in all patients, the appearance of eyebrow ptosis was eliminated, the upper eyelid was smooth and flat, and no absorption and further depression of the upper filler were observed; the effect was satisfactory.Conclusions:The eyebrow lifting combined with the subcutaneous tissue flap filling to correct the senile upper eyelid chalasis and depression is significantly effective with less trauma and complications, and it is worthy to be promoted.
