Upper eyelid ptosis (in this case an ageing phenomenon) was responsible for a diminished opening of the eyelids in the vertical direction. Sagging of the external corner of the eyelids was responsible for the horizontal component of small eyelid aperture. The correction of the ptosis and the suspension of the outer eyelid corner on the orbital margin were performed in one operation time. During the same session, a thread lift was performed to reposition the cheeks and to decrease the depth of the nasolabial folds.
Upper eyelid ptosis is often partially compensated by the forehead muscles, which are accessory eyelid openers. This leads to exaggerated and aesthetically less pleasing eyebrow elevation. After the operation, the eyebrows dropped to their normal position, which gave the face a more relaxed look.
