The treatment of eyelid malposition following septal reset blepharoplasty

The authors have developed a systematic approach to treating eyelid malposition secondary to septal reset blepharoplasty. A key treatment factor is appropriate timing of interventions, which includes initiating treatment with nonsurgical interventions. Although patients who are unresponsive to nonsurgical measures may express a strong desire to surgically correct the eyelid malposition early on, surgical interventions before 3 to 6 months after the initial surgery can, in many instances, worsen the result.
