Small incision levator advancement is a less invasive procedure than standard levator advancement because of the smaller skin incision and preservation of orbital septum integrity, but it requires good knowledge of eyelid anatomy and experience in eyelid surgery. In patients with aponeurotic ptosis, this surgery can be performed as a safe and effective surgical technique with a similar success rate as standard levator advancement.
