This patient had lower lid blepharoplasty in a beauty saloon two year ago. She complains of dryness of the eyes and rounding of the lower eyelid contour. Examination shows the lower eyelid is tight from excessive skin removal. To restore the normal of the appearance of the eyelid, the skin needs to be replaced. However, the use of skin graft would not aesthetically satisfactory. I recruit the skin by performing disinsertion of the orbiculomalar ligament (see diagram below) and lift the lower eyelid skin by using orbicularis flap (see diagram below) to correct the roundings.

To avoid the complications of blepharoplasty, a professional and qualified plastic surgeon is absolutely necessary. When I underwent a blepharoplasty procedure in Toronto last year, I also chose a reputable doctor. With his help, this surgery worked very well for me. Now, I have bigger and more beautiful eyes....
