What are the disadvantages of frontalis muscle flap suspension

First: frontal muscle flap direct suspension surgery is the most common and ideal surgical method, loved by patients. This method does not work through the middle connector, and avoids the disadvantage of indirect use of frontalis muscle. It is suitable for good frontalis muscle function, congenital or postnatal ptosis, especially for severe ptosis. It can also be used for other surgical methods to correct ptosis failure cases.

Second: the frontalis muscle flap direct suspension technique is to use the frontalis muscle directly, make the frontalis muscle flap, move down and fix with the upper tarsal plate suture, and directly use the frontalis muscle force to lift the upper eyelid to correct blepharoptosis. Because the operation is dynamic, the patients can not only open their eyes, but also close their eyes after treatment. In addition, the deep wrinkles in the forehead can disappear naturally after operation, making the forehead appear wide and flat, and the patients can also obtain the cosmetic effect of double eyelids after operation.

Third: due to the different causes and specific conditions of ptosis, so far, there is no one completely suitable for the correction and treatment of all ptosis surgery. It should be noted that although the operation is suitable for a certain situation, the postoperative effect will be different due to the individual differences of patients and different surgeons. However, in the same situation, different surgical methods can sometimes get the same effect, so in addition to the general principles, the choice of surgical methods should also be combined with the surgeon's own clinical experience.
