Complications of blepharoplasty.
To avert complications of blepharoplasties the surgeon must first communicate with the patient. Once a rapport is established, a thorough preoperative evaluation is performed. It is imperative to determine the expectations of the patient and to communicate the realistic results that can be achieved from surgery. Strict adherence to proper surgical technique is paramount for good postoperative results. If complications occur, correct diagnosis of the etiology of the problem usually leads to a satisfactory resolution.
