TLDR Maintain a natural, masculine look while rejuvenating the eye area with careful, tailored techniques.
The document discussed optimizing male periorbital rejuvenation, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a masculine appearance while addressing the upper eyelid, lower eyelid, lateral canthus, and brow. Key principles included conservative skin excision in the upper lid, temporary canthal support to avoid lower lid malposition, and judicious fat removal to prevent a sculpted appearance. Techniques recommended for upper lid rejuvenation involved skin-muscle excision with careful medial fat removal, while lower lid procedures should avoid an overly tight appearance. Male brow rejuvenation should avoid aggressive elevation, with endoscopic or lateral temporal subcutaneous lifts preferred. Neurotoxin treatments should reduce motion without complete paralysis. The study underscored the need for tailored approaches to achieve natural and satisfactory results in male patients.
