Abstract
Festoons or “malar bags” are thought to be involutional attenuation of the skin and underlying orbital orbicularis oculi muscle. Edema often accumulates in this area. Standard blepharoplasty techniques will not address festoons, if present, and may make them worse for a time due to persistent edema in this area. In severe cases of festoons, one approach is direct excision.
