Repair of Lower Eyelid Cicatricial Entropion With Midface Lift, Spacer Graft, and Drill-Hole Canthoplasty

Abstract

Postoperative cicatricial lower lid retraction is a challenging surgical problem that often disfigures the shape of the eye and has functional consequences. Depending on the severity, more than one surgical procedure may be needed to achieve the desired lower lid shape and position given the recurrent nature of scarring. Concepts of scar release, establishing lower lid vertical height, soft tissue replacement, and midcheek support are discussed in this video.
