TPS After Upper Blepharoplasty

The skin incisions were marked using a skin marking pen. Preseptal orbicularis skin and muscle were removed using a size-15 scalpel blade and scissors. Hemostasis was achieved with conservative electrocuatery. The skin was closed with a running 6-0 nylon suture.

"Prior to skin closure as above, three 6-0 polyglactin sutures are passed along the lateral fourth of the orbital rim. The sutures attach the inferior orbicularis oculi edge to the arcus marginalis of lateral ROOF. Sutures are placed until there is a visible plumping of the sub-brow tissues."
