These methods are generally categorized into either incisional (open) or non-incisional (suture) methods. The incisional method is commonly used for the creation of the double eyelid crease in patients with excessive or thick skin. However, concurrent open ptosis correction is often marred by the lengthy period of intraoperative adjustment, causing more swelling, a longer recovery time, and an increased risk of postoperative complications.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\nMethods The authors have devised a new, minimally invasive technique to alleviate mild ptosis during incisional double eyelid surgery. The anterior lamella is approached through the incisional technique for the creation of a double eyelid while the posterior lamella, including Muller's and levator muscles, is approached with the suture method for Muller's plication and ptosis correction.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\nResults The procedure described was utilized in 28 patients from June 2012 to August 2012. Postoperative asymmetry was noted in one patient who had severe preoperative conjunctival scarring. Otherwise, ptosis was corrected as planned in the rest of the cases and all of the patients were satisfied with their postoperative appearance and experienced no complications.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\nConclusions Our hybrid technique combines the benefits of both the incisional and suture methods, allowing for a predictable and easily reproducible correction of blepharoptosis with an aesthetically pleasing double eyelid.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5999\/aps.2014.41.1.71","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,1,28]],"date-time":"2014-01-28T08:12:42Z","timestamp":1390896762000},"page":"71-76","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Mild Ptosis Correction with the Stitch Method During Incisional Double Fold Formation"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"41","author":[{"given":"Edward Ilho","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic Surgery, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tae Joo","family":"Ahn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gyalumhan Plastic Surgery, Seoul, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"993","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bjps.2011.03.003","article-title":"Double-eyelid blepharoplasty incorporating blepharoptosis surgery for 'latent' aponeurotic ptosis","volume":"64","author":"J Li","year":"2011","journal-title":"J Plast Reconstr Aesthet Surg"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2004","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bjps.2010.01.013","article-title":"A new non-incisional correction method for blepharoptosis","volume":"63","author":"Y Shimizu","year":"2010","journal-title":"J Plast Reconstr Aesthet Surg"},{"key":"ref3","first-page":"167","article-title":"Blepharoptosis correction with stitch method","volume":"16","author":"TJ Ahn","year":"2010","journal-title":"J Korean Soc Aesthetic Plast Surg"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"529","DOI":"10.1097\/01.sap.0000227484.76120.97","article-title":"Upgaze eyelid position allows differentiation between congenital and aponeurotic blepharoptosis according to the neurophysiology of eyelid retraction","volume":"57","author":"C Hirasawa","year":"2006","journal-title":"Ann Plast Surg"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"241","DOI":"10.1097\/scs.0b013e3181577b2e","article-title":"Conjoint fascial sheath of the levator and superior rectus attached to the conjunctival fornix","volume":"19","author":"K Hwang","year":"2008","journal-title":"J Craniofac Surg"},{"key":"ref6","first-page":"521","article-title":"Cosmetic double eyelid surgery: single 5 mm-partial incision method","volume":"29","author":"HS Ryu","year":"2002","journal-title":"J Korean Soc Plast Reconstr Surg"},{"key":"ref7","first-page":"195","article-title":"Double eyelid operation with three tiny incisions","volume":"27","author":"YK Kim","year":"2000","journal-title":"J Korean Soc Plast Reconstr Surg"}],"container-title":["Archives of Plastic Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.5999\/aps.2014.41.1.71.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,2]],"date-time":"2022-05-02T22:36:46Z","timestamp":1651531006000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.5999\/aps.2014.41.1.71"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,1]]},"references-count":7,"journal-issue":{"issue":"01","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,2]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5999\/aps.2014.41.1.71","archive":["Portico","CLOCKSS"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2234-6163","2234-6171"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2234-6163","type":"print"},{"value":"2234-6171","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,1]]}}}
