Abstract

Transcutaneous lower blepharoplasty as a standard procedure for cosmetic lower blepharoplasty is being replaced by transconjunctival blepharoplasty and laser resurfacing techniques. Nevertheless, there remain specific indications for the transcutaneous approach and its modifications. The accomplished facial plastic surgeon will be able to choose the appropriate technique based on the patient's concerns, the eyelid pathology, and his or her clinical experience.
