Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty: Surgical Techniques and Results —Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
ConclusionsNo significant results were found; however, many studies reported an impact of upper blepharoplasty surgery in the outcomes studied. Only a small number of complications were reported, and patients were satisfied with the aesthetic outcomes.Level of Evidence IIIThis journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

The evaluation of the skin-muscle and only-skin upper blepharoplasty featuring surface electromyography: a single-masked, randomized split-face prospective study
ConclusionsThis study is an objective and quantitative report using surface electromyography on upper blepharoplasty with or without a strip of OOM excision. Our results showed that OOM fully recovers after the stripping procedure. The resection of the skin-OOM flap showed no difference in long-term cosmetic results. Therefore, we recommend OOM preservation during upper blepharoplasty unless muscle excision is well-grounded. (Source: International Ophthalmology)

Can Local Infiltration Influence Postoperative Recovery in Upper Blepharoplasty? A Case Series Study on Two Different Infiltration Methods
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a new method for local anesthetic infiltration in the upper eyelid comparing it to the traditional needle injections.A prospective, randomized, and clinical trial was conducted on 20 patients who underwent upper eyelid blepharoplasty in local anesthesia. After randomization, one eyelid was infiltrated using a Nanosoft technology needle, while on the contralateral side traditional needle injections were performed. Preoperative demographics, Fitzpatrick, and SNAP test were recorded. Postoperative patients visual analog scale (VAS) scores for both infiltration methods and ecchymosi...

A Modified Double-Eyelid Blepharoplasty: Tarsus Linkage Mechanism
ConclusionThis study proposes a modified double-eyelid blepharoplasty with the tarsus linkage mechanism. It is suitable for most primary eye cases, particularly in patients with lax upper lid skin and high levels of upper orbital fat.Level of Evidence VThis journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

Applied Anatomy of the Lower Eyelids' Preseptal Space for Treating Ectropion and Retraction with Soft Tissue Fillers
CONCLUSION: Anatomic knowledge of the lower eyelid and of the preseptal space is of clinical relevance when trying to reconstruct the lower eyelid with soft-tissue fillers. The targeted space provides optimal lifting capacities for improved aesthetic and functional outcome.PMID:37285216 | DOI:10.1097/PRS.0000000000010803 (Source: Hand Surgery)
