 Patients with poor levator function, such as those with severe congenital ptosis, require correction by levator resection or frontalis suspension. Levator resection may not be sufficiently effective, and we thus choose frontalis suspension as the first choice. Autologous tissue(fascia lata, temporalis fascia, palmaris longus tendon)and artificial materials(Gore-Tex, silicone, prolene)are used as lifting materials. Among the autologous tissues, the fascia lata has been the most frequently used to date.

 However, in recent years, the use of the temporal fascia has increased, because of pain and the hypertrophic scar at the fascia lata donor site. The strength of the temporal fascia, which contains a membranous component, was considered to be inferior to that of the fascia lata, which is mostly composed of tendon tissue, but the strength required for lifting is sufficient, and its use presents no problem in the long term. Temporal fascia is made into a strip along the fiber, and two strips are used on each side. The strip is sutured to the tarsus and the upper edge of the eyebrow through a subcutaneous tunnel created under the orbicularis oculi muscle. The eyelid position is adjusted so that three-fifths of the iris is exposed.

 This method has had excellent functional results. Frontalis suspension with temporalis fascia is an effective procedure in the long term with no complications or recurrence of the ptosis.
