Principles for restoration of youthful eyes
• Control of periorbital aesthetics by proper brow positioning, corrugator muscle removal, and lid fold invagination when beneficial. • Restoration of tone and position of the lateral canthus and, along with it, restoration of a youthful and attractive intercanthal axis tilt. • Restoration of the tone and posture of the lower lids. • Preservation of maximal lid skin and muscle (so essential to lid function and aesthetics) as well as orbital fat. • Lifting of the midface through reinforced canthopexy, preferably enhanced by composite malar advancement. • Correction of suborbital malar grooves with tear trough (or suborbital malar) implants, obliterating the deforming tear trough (bony) depressions that angle down diagonally across the cheek, which begin below the inner canthus. • Control of orbital fat by septal restraint or quantity reduction. • Removal of only that tissue (skin, muscle, fat) that is truly excessive on the upper and lower lids, sometimes resorting to unconventional excision patterns. • Modification of skin to remove prominent wrinkling and excision of small growths and blemishes
