Abstract

The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of a monopolar radiosurgery for blepharoplasty. This was a prospective trial in which upper eyelids of 28 patients were treated. Patients underwent a single treatment session: one eyelid was performed with monopolar radiosurgery while contra-lateral eyelid was performed with conventional surgery. The follow-up was 6 months. Assessments were made by the surgeon and by masked physician. The majority of patients, till 3th months postoperatively achieved the slightly better aesthetic results at radiosurgery sides, but no achieved dramatic results were acived. There were no serious adverse sequelae. Human eyelids can be safely treated with monopolar radiosugical device. Using this technology healing were the same or slightly better on side treated with radiosurgery.
