Master techniques in blepharoplasty and periorbital rejuvenation.

Abstract

The soft tissues of the eyelid, eyebrow, and forehead are complex in their anatomic, physiologic, and surgical relationships. Aesthetic surgery of these regions often requires a sophisticated understanding of agerelated changes, ethnic differences, and the interplay of delicate functions. This publication provides the reader with a modern and detailed surgical atlas that highlights a variety of classic and advanced surgical approaches. The text is divided into forehead and eyebrow, upper eyelid, lower eyelid, and midface rejuvenation. Each chapter begins with a series of key points, which is then followed by a general format of anatomic considerations, preoperative evaluation, surgical techniques, postoperative management, and complications. The authors have also dedicated sections to general and special considerations. The book is a masterful compendium of rejuvenative techniques in oculofacial surgery from leading experts in the specialties of oculoplastic, facial plastic, dermatologic, and plastic surgery. The collaborative development of this 342-page text with 447 figures is a true contribution in blepharoplasty and periorbital rejuvenation that will be valued by the student and senior physician alike.
