In order to make the postoperative effect of open double eyelid more close to the physiological and anatomical structure of double eyelid, we improved the traditional open double eyelid operation according to the anatomical characteristics of the upper eyelid. We fixed part of the orbicularis oculi muscle above the incisal margin with the orbital septum flap to make the double eyelid formed after surgery more natural and beautiful.
A total of 76 patients who received open double blepharoplasty in department of plastic surgery from February 2019 to May 2022 were selected as this study objects, all of whom were female. Their ages ranged from 18 to 32 years, with a mean of (23.6 ± 5.2) years. The surgical method is open double blepharoplasty by fixing part of the orbicularis oculi muscle above the incisal margin with the flap of the orbital septum.
In this study, all 76 patients underwent successful surgery, with an average operation time of (1.5 ± 0.2) h. The postoperative double eyelid curvature was smooth and the double eyelid width was basically symmetrical. In terms of the doctors’ satisfaction evaluation of the postoperative effect, 64 cases were very satisfied and 12 cases were satisfied. In terms of patients’ satisfaction evaluation of the postoperative effect, 60 patients were very satisfied, 15 patients were satisfied and 1 patient was dissatisfied.
Through this study, we found that this surgical method invented by us has short operation time, good operation effect, few postoperative complications and high patient satisfaction, which is worthy of promotion and application in plastic surgery clinical practice.
