Abstract
The subperiosteal browlift and midface lift combination is a total mob ilization of the composite full-thickness soft tissues from the bony s keleton with superior suspension. The object is to correct midfacial p tosis and the ''tired'' look of the lateral eyelids. It is done in con junction with a browlift so that a composite correction of the upper a nd midface is achieved. When indicated, a modified lower cheeklift and the usual procedures for correcting neck deformities are utilized in combination. We believe the procedure is safe and the results reported are natural and long-lasting. This review of 130 cases also stresses technical aspects and the safety of the procedure.
