Randomized laterality of suture materials for closure (6-0 polypropylene monofilament suture vs fast absorbing gut suture on right eyelid)

"Plain gut suture (6-0 fast absorbing plain gut \[Sharpoint Express gut TM\]) and polypropylene suture (6-0 polypropylene \[Ethicon Prolene TM\]) will be used to close blepharoplasty incisions. Each patient will have one eyelid using plain gut suture and the other eyelid with polypropylene suture. Each subject will be randomized as to laterality."
