abultamiento de los párpados Explanation: El párpado caído más bien cuelga ligeramente, es posible. Pero también he oído de los párpados abultados, cuando son grandes o se ven hinchados. En ambos casos se ofecen servicios de cirugía plástica estética correctiva o cosmética. |

párpados caídos / ptosis palpebral Explanation: Como comenté en "Discusión", el término médico que designa la caída de los párpados es "ptosis palpebral". Una referencia: http://www.aemps.gob.es/cima/pdfs/es/p/72709/P_72709.pdf La decisión sobre cuál término utilizar depende del registro del texto (en particular, a qué tipo de lectores está destinado). Saludos cordiales. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 días (2015-05-23 12:29:20 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- De nada, Laura.
