Upper Eyelid Rejuvenation

Abstract Rejuvenation of the upper periorbital region plays a vital role in restoring a youthful appearance. Correction of the aging upper lid is accomplished with blepharoplasty alone or in combination with other surgical and nonsurgical techniques. An intimate knowledge of upper eyelid anatomy, the periorbital aging process and appropriate patient selection are paramount to successful outcomes. Traditional methods of excess skin, muscle, and fat excision have been replaced with a trend toward structural conservation and volume repositioning. Meticulous planning, execution, and postoperative care will lead to a natural, refreshed, and rejuvenated result.
