ABSTRACT
Objective: Describe the functional results of upper blepharoplasty.
Methods: A prospective longitudinal descriptive study was conducted of 99
patients (198 eyelids) diagnosed with upper eyelid dermatochalasis, in some
cases associated to eyelid and eyebrow ptosis. The study was carried out at
Ramón Pando Ferrer Cuban Institute of Ophthalmology from February 2019 to
January 2020.
Results: Of the total patients studied, 85.8% were female and 43.5% were aged
over 62 years. Upper eyelid dermatochalasis and palpebral ptosis prevailed with
68.4%, whereas severe dermatochalasis and palpebral ptosis represented 47.5%
and 50%, respectively. A predominance was found of upper eyelid
dermatochalasis and eyebrow ptosis in the 56-61 age group (61%). Total
correction of upper eyelid dermatochalasis was achieved in 98% of the cases
intervened, eyelid ptosis correction in 86% and eyebrow ptosis correction in
88%. No complications appeared in 94% of the eyelids intervened. The most
common complication was bleeding with 2.5%.
Conclusions: In most cases, management of palpebral ptosis and upper eyebrow
transblepharoplasty achieves total correction of these disorders and
dermatochalasis. The procedure is an important tool for facial rejuvenation.
