Lower Eyelid Malposition - Lateral Tarsal Strip Canthoplasty
3d try-onThe lateral tarsal strip canthoplasty improves many lid malpositions. It is used to correct retraction (cicatricial or involutional) and ectropion. It is also a champion technique for elevation and tightening of the eyelid. It can be performed as a sole procedure or in conjunction with a midface lift. Although most canthoplasties can produce eyelid tightening, tarsal suspension allows elevation, retroplacement, and tightening even if the eyelid is under inferior-based tension.
Concerns Treated
Eyelid Malposition
Ptosis of the eyelid, otherwise known as eyelid malposition, is a condition that affects the eyelids and makes them look drooping, tired, and aged. If the condition is severe enough, symptoms can become more than cosmetic, and treatment could be a health issue that requires medical intervention. However, some people looking to correct ptosis are seeking out ways to look younger and more attractive.
Sagging Lower Eyelid
In some cases, the lower eyelids droop as a person ages and the skin around the eyes begins to sag. Sagging eyelid skin can cause an old and tired facial aesthetic, as well as impair the vision. However, droopy eyelids can be transformed into perkier and wider-awake looking lids with plastic surgery that removes excess skin and fat or tightens muscle to lift the area. Surgical procedures such as blepharoplasty ptosis surgery can be performed by a plastic surgeon to correct sagging eyelid problems.
