Clinical application of the transverse incision technique for epicanthus correction combined with blepharoplasty
Objective To discusse a more simplified operation method on the basis of the combined operation of blepharoplasty with transverse incision for correction of epicanthus.Methods From June 2016 to June 2021,273 patients with single-fold eyelids and epicanthus were treated by correction of epicanthus combined with blepharoplasty.The method of transverse incision medial canthoplasty combined with blepharoplasty was used.On the basis of traditional methods,the design line and operation sequence were adjusted to sim-plify the operation process.The correction effect of medial canthoplasty,the shape of double eyelids,and patient satisfaction after surgery were observed.Results Totally 273 patients were followed up for 6 to 18 months.In 257 patients,the epicanthus was fully corrected,the double eyelid was symmetrical and natural with inobvious scar.Basic correction of epicanthus was in 9 patients while the epicanthus was uncorrected in 7 patients.The efficiency rate was 97.44%.The patient satisfaction evaluation showed that 248 patients were very satisfied,17 patients were relatively satisfied,and 8 patients were dissatisfied,with a satisfaction rate of 97.07%.Conclusion The modified trans-verse incision epicanthoplasty combined with blepharoplasty is a simple and effective technique.The correction of epicanthus is adequate,with little trauma,short recovery time and satisfied scarring outcomes.The contour of double-eyelid is natural and the postoperative out-come is satisfactory.
