With the mosquito hook still left in place, the edges of the incision are carefully coagulated. This is to prevent the fat pad from whipping back and possibly causing bleeding of the eyeball.
The same procedure is followed to remove the intermediate fat body, if there is one.
While resecting fat in this manner, the eyeball is the limiting factor. It is very hard to continue removing tissue as one gets closer to the eyeball.
Care should be taken to split the orbital septum only pointwise. In the lateral part of the lid, in particular, it is important to leave the septum intact to prevent injury to the lacrimal gland. (Fig. 5.12)

Cutaneous Sutures (Fig. 5.15)
The wound is closed, without tension, with cutaneous sutures. A fine needle and 6/0 or 7/0 Ethilon suture material are used. Wound closure starts at the lateral orbital margin with simple interrupted sutures. These are followed by continuous subcuticular sutures.

The assisting surgeon holds the suture material for the continuous sutures under mild tension. The medial end of the thread is left rela­tively long; no knot is made.

The surgeon now checks whether the eyelid slit is about 2–3 mm open and the sutures lie exactly in the palpebral fold.
After the same procedure has been carried out on the contralateral eye, the symmetry of both eyelids should be rechecked. (Fig. 5.16)
At the end of the operation, the wound is fixed with Steri-Strip tape, which is left in place for 24 h. (Fig. 5.17)

Postoperative Treatment and Precautions
The patient can already leave the hospital 2–4 h after the operation. Strenuous activities should be avoided postoperatively. The proper position for sleeping during the postoperative period is on the back, with the upper body elevated. To protect the surgical wound and the conjunctivae, the patient should wear sunglasses for the first several days after the operation.
The antibiotic treatment which was instituted intraoperatively should be contin ued for 5 days postoperatively. During the first 24 h, the wound should be intensively and intermittentl y cooled. The sutures can generally be removed by the patient’s own ophthalmologist 4 days after the operation.
Patients with a tendency to form scar tissue should massage a scar-pre­venting ointment into the skin of the upper eyelid, starting on the 14th day postoperatively.
If a tendency toward swelling or bruising is noted, medication should be administered to reduce swelling.
Any small scars which remain can be “polished away” with a laser after ½–1 year.
Two weeks after the operation, the patients can resume normal physical activities, including sports.

Lower Eyelid Surgery – Blepharoplasty
Introduction
Lower lid blepharoplasty is one of the most difficult operations in the facial area.
Topreventeyelideversion,greatcaremustbeexercisedherenottocut away too much tissue or overly tighten the skin. If the surgeon resects too little skin, however, the patient will be dissatisfied. The two most important points to follow during lower eyelid blepharoplasty are the formation of a strong musculocutaneous flap and carefully dosed resec­tioningoffattytissue–removingtoolittletissueresultsinanunhappy patient, while removing too much results in the phenomenon of “hol­loweyesockets.”Theextentoffattytissueremovedmustbeexplained in detail to the patient before the operation. We use canthal sutures only in patients with severely drooping eyelids.
If blepharoplasty is performed without an external incision, an ultra­pulsed CO can be used in patients with only a small amount of excess cutaneous tissue. During this procedure, excess fat is removed via the conjunctiva and the lower eyelid is resurfaced. We believe that this is the only indi­cation for using a laser during blepharoplasty; it does not offer any advantages on the upper eyelid.

In the following, we have presented a standardized blepharoplasty pro­cedure step by step. Surgeons who have recently started performing eyelid surgery will find this approach especially useful.
