Abstract
Objective To investigate the causes, the prevention and the treatment of the complications of blepharoplasty for double eyelids. Methods The clinical data, the surgery methods and the causes were analyzed in 100 cases of blepharoplasty from July 2011 to December 2017. Results All of these patients underwent these perfect procedures with satisfied anesthesia. Incisions were all healed in one stage with no infection. Double eyelid width was (7.0±1.2) mm with natural and smooth lines after 3 months operation, 86 patients (86%) had double eyelid with natural and smooth lines, slight scars and good bilateral symmetry. 14 patients (14%) required surgical revision for complications, as asymmetry of supratarsal folds (7%), over narrow of supratarsal folds (4%), over width of supratarsal folds (2%), disappearance of supratarsal folds (2%), multiple eyelid (3%) and ptosis (1%), and the effects were satisfactory. Conclusions In order to achieve the natural and smooth double eyelids, it is important for plastic surgeons to have the comprehensive grasp of overall outline and operational details in blepharoplasty for double eyelids. Preoperative design should be accurate, intraoperative procedures should be careful, and postoperative care should be standardized.
