OBJECTIVES: To determine the effects of upper-eyelid surgery (limited myectomy, blepharoplasty, and levator aponeurotic advancement) on patients who demonstrated a suboptimal response or residual heaviness of the upper eyelids after botulinum toxin eyelid injections for facial dyskinesia.
DESIGN: Retrospective study.
SUBJECTS: Charts of 358 patients with a diagnosis of benign essential blepharospasm, Meige syndrome (with eyelid involvement), and hemifacial spasm were reviewed.
METHODS: Data were retrospectively analyzed and included subjective and objective responses about botulinum toxin injections (number and duration of effect of injections before and after eyelid surgery).
RESULTS: Of 358 patients with facial dyskinesias, 14 (3.91%) underwent upper-eyelid limited myectomy with or without upper-lid blepharoplasty (n = 5), upper-lid blepharoplasty alone (n = 6), or levator advancement with or without blepharoplasty (n = 3). Mean subjective improvement was 68.75% after limited myectomy combined with blepharoplasty and 58.33% after levator and/or blepharoplasty surgery. Average duration of effect of injections increased from 122.1 days in the patients prior to undergoing eyelid surgery to 210.5 days after surgery.
CONCLUSIONS: Upper-eyelid surgery, including limited myectomy, enhanced the effect of the botulinum toxin in this small group of patients. Patients with a suboptimal response to injections in terms or moderate to marked dermatochalasis with subjective heaviness of the eyelids, upper-eyelid blepharoplasty, and/or limited myectomy should be considered.
