Structured blepharoplasty treats the gaze comprehensively

Structured blepharoplasty is revolutionizing eyelid aesthetic surgery by treating the eye region as a dynamic and interconnected system, rather than just removing tissue. With more than 2 million procedures performed annually worldwide, according to ISAPS, this new approach analyzes the set of structures in the eye region before defining what should be removed, preserved, or repositioned, representing a significant conceptual evolution in relation to traditional blepharoplasty.

First 'diplodocus' in Europe discovered in Spain reinforces hypothesis of dinosaurs 'crossing' the Atlantic

Spanish paleontologists discovered the first "diplodocus" in Europe in Teruel, a giant herbivorous dinosaur approximately 25 metres long that lived 150 million years ago. The fourteen vertebrae found confirm that these sauropodes reached Europe, reinforcing the theory that dinosaurs managed to cross an Atlantic still forming, when the tectonic plates were separating Laurasia from Gondwana.
