The ethnic differences in the Asian upper eyelid anatomy are compounded by the technical challenges of primary and revision ptosis correction. The authors present a technique of upper eyelid ptosis correction that estimates the exact location of suture fixation that uses the musculoaponeurotic junction of the levator as the reference point. The preoperative considerations in determining the fixation point relative to the musculoaponeurotic junction include the following: A, the extent of ptosis correction needed; B, the degree of compensatory brow elevation with eye opening; and C, eye dominance. The benefits of this approach are the shortened operative time because of more precise preoperative planning and greater predictability and reproducibility of the results. The authors have found that this technique produced consistent and superior results for ptosis correction in Asian patients.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1097\/prs.0000000000007386","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,24]],"date-time":"2020-11-24T06:10:34Z","timestamp":1606198234000},"page":"1268-1273","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Upper Eyelid Ptosis Correction with Levator Advancement in Asian Patients using the Musculoaponeurotic Junction of the Levator as the Key Reference Point"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"146","author":[{"given":"Chin-Ho","family":"Wong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From W Aesthetic Plastic Surgery;
