  • Oculoplastic surgery
  • Facial aesthetic procedures

Background:

  • Upper blepharoplasty is a common procedure for eyelid rejuvenation.
  • Traditional techniques can involve external incisions with risks of scarring.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel transconjunctival approach for medial fat removal in upper blepharoplasty.
  • To assess patient satisfaction and complication rates associated with this technique.

Main Methods:

  • A preliminary report detailing the experience with 60 patients undergoing upper blepharoplasty using a transconjunctival medial fat removal technique.
  • Surgical technique described in detail with case reporting.

Main Results:

  • No perioperative or postoperative complications were observed in the 60 treated patients.

  • All patients reported high satisfaction with the surgical outcomes.
  • The technique successfully avoided medial upper eyelid incisions and associated scarring.

    • Conclusions:

    • The transconjunctival approach for medial fat removal in upper blepharoplasty is a safe and effective technique.
    • This method offers advantages, particularly in secondary cases or when avoiding medial scar extension is desired.
    • The technique is also beneficial for patients with deep tarsal folds or as an adjunct to eyebrow lifting procedures.
