Müller's Muscle Conjunctival Resection Ptosis Repair in the Aesthetic Patient

Abstract

Posterior eyelid ptosis repair via the Müller's muscle-conjunctival resection procedure is an effective, reliable, and simple technique for periorbital rejuvenation in the aesthetic patient. This procedure may be performed with other periorbital rejuvenation techniques without sacrificing results. Appropriate candidates are patients with maintained levator function whose ptotic upper eyelid elevates close to a normal eyelid level upon instillation of phenylephrine drops to the superior conjunctival fornix. © 2010.
