placing an aesthetic prosthesis at least on a hollow portion of an upper eyelid, wherein the hollow portion is situated close to a medial canthus,
wherein the placing includes visually and/or physically filling at least a portion of the hollow portion with at least a first portion of the aesthetic prosthesis, and
wherein the first portion contains a substance at least before the prosthesis is placed in the hollow portion and the substance is a paste.
9. A cosmetic method for temporary modification of an appearance of a contour of an eye, the method comprising:
placing an aesthetic prosthesis at least on a hollow portion of an upper eyelid, wherein the hollow portion is situated close to a medial canthus,
wherein the placing includes visually and/or physically filling at least a portion of the hollow portion with at least a first portion of the aesthetic prosthesis, and
wherein the first portion contains a substance at least before the prosthesis is placed in the hollow portion and the substance is reticulatable.
10. A cosmetic method for temporary modification of an appearance of a contour of an eye, the method comprising:
placing an aesthetic prosthesis at least on a hollow portion of an upper eyelid, wherein the hollow portion is situated close to a medial canthus,
wherein the placing includes visually and/or physically filling at least a portion of the hollow portion with at least a first portion of the aesthetic prosthesis, and
wherein the first portion contains a substance at least before the prosthesis is placed in the hollow portion and the substance is a fluid.
11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the prosthesis comprises a second portion connected to the first portion by an articulation mechanism.
12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the prosthesis comprises a second portion that is configured to detach from the first portion.
13. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the prosthesis comprises a second portion connected to the first portion, wherein the second portion is degradable.
14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein the second portion is degradable by being dissolved in solvent.
15. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the prosthesis further comprises a guidance portion, wherein at least during a step of placing the prosthesis, the guidance portion extends over the whole eyelid and/or a portion of the nose.
16. A cosmetic method for temporary modification of an appearance of a contour of an eye, the method comprising:
placing an aesthetic prosthesis at least on a hollow portion of an upper eyelid, wherein the hollow portion is situated close to a medial canthus,
wherein the placing includes visually and/or physically filling at least a portion of a space defined by the hollow portion with at least a first portion of the aesthetic prosthesis, and
wherein the prosthesis comprises at least one elastic membrane and a non-malleable material.
17. A cosmetic method for temporary modification of an appearance of a contour of an eye, the method comprising:
placing an aesthetic prosthesis at least on a hollow portion of an upper eyelid, wherein the hollow portion is situated close to a medial canthus,
wherein the placing includes visually and/or physically filling at least a portion of the hollow portion with at least a first portion of the aesthetic prosthesis, and
wherein the prosthesis comprises at least one elastic membrane and a paste.
