Experience of Comprehensive Three Dimensional Epicanthoplasty With Upper Blepharoplasty in Asian Patients.

Purpose: To introduce the experience of comprehensive 3-dimensional epicanthoplsty with upper blepharoplasty in Asian patients.

Methods: The patients who underwent comprehensive 3-dimensional epicanthoplsty with upper blepharoplasty at the Shanghai Ninth People's hospital from January 2018 to January 2019 were included in our study. The interepicanthal distance was evaluated preoperatively and 6 months after the surgery, scar visibility and patient's satisfaction were documented 6 months after the surgery.

Early hemi-mandibular lengthening by distraction osteogenesis contributes to compensatory maxillary growth.

Mandibular distraction osteogenesis at an early age is the standard hemifacial microsomia treatment. Nevertheless, the recurrence rate remains high and the definition of early age is controversial. We explored the optimal timing for mandibular distraction, when the surrounding skeleton, such as maxilla, can grow compensatory, to reduce recurrence.
