Summary
Orthognathic surgery combined with Asian double eyelid blepharoplasty offers excellent esthetic outcomes. This combined procedure is safe, cost-effective, and achieves good eyelid crease symmetry without complications.
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Background:
- Orthognathic surgery corrects dentofacial deformities.
- Adjunct procedures enhance esthetic outcomes and patient satisfaction.
- This study explores combining orthognathic surgery with Asian double eyelid blepharoplasty.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the preliminary experience of performing simultaneous orthognathic surgery with Asian double eyelid suture method blepharoplasty.
- To assess the safety, efficacy, and esthetic outcomes of this combined surgical approach.
Main Methods:
- A case series of 19 consecutive patients undergoing combined orthognathic surgery and Asian double eyelid suture method blepharoplasty.
- Measurement of double eyelid crease height at the mid-pupillary line in primary gaze.
Main Results:
- No complications or relapse were reported.
- Significant improvement in bilateral double eyelid crease height was observed post-surgery.
- Excellent eyelid crease height symmetry was achieved between the left and right eyes.
Conclusions:
- Simultaneous orthognathic surgery and suture method blepharoplasty can be safely performed.
- The combined procedure does not significantly increase costs or operating room time.
- Excellent esthetic results, including good eyelid symmetry, are achievable with this combined approach.
