Eyelid Malposition - Scar Excision and Spacer Overview - 904

Eyelid Malposition - Scar Excision and Spacer

In the presence of significant scarring, a spacer is required to provide vertical height and stiffness to support either the upper or lower eyelid. Scar excision and spacer placement for eyelid malposition is performed when there is shortening of the vertical height, horizontal laxity, or mechanical distortion from cicatricial changes (ie, scarring) of the eyelid. This surgery repairs eyelids that appear pulled back and/or don't fully close over the eye.

However, some people looking to correct ptosis are seeking out ways to look younger and more attractive.
