“…Unlike the previously described and useful technique called “blepharopeeling”, micropunch blepharopeeling does not rely on the deepest chemical peel solution (the Baker‐Gordon phenol‐croton oil peel) to tighten excess upper eyelid skin. The deepest peels may modestly reduce upper eyelid skin excess but carry the risks of prolonged erythema and skin hypopigmentation.…”
Eighty-nine percent phenol peeling combined with multiple small upper eyelid skin excisions effectively tightens upper eyelid skin excess and lessens periorbital rhytides. The procedure has the advantage of not creating a linear scar and decreases the risk of prolonged healing and hypopigmentation, which is more likely with deeper peels.

“…In addition, by laser administration, using peelings has been decreased during these decades. In the other hand, peeling is effective enough and also not expensive . The number of studies in which blepharopeeling is used for rejuvenation is rare .…”

“…Inclusion criteria were Fitzpatrick I‐III skin type, thin to medium skin thickness, diffuse periorbital rhytid, mild to moderate ptosis in medial/lateral part of upper eyelid, age of >40 years, and patients' consent for participation in the study. Exclusion criteria included; previous local treatment and lack of interest for participation.…”

“…The classic procedure for dermatochalasis treatment is blepharoplasty . Patients are looking for eyelid rejuvenation with rapid recovery, minimal scarring, and a natural appearance compared with past methods that tend to create surgical stigmata.…”

“…Blepharopeeling is chemical peeling of the eyelid skin, which results in contraction of excess eyelid skin …”
Micropunch blepharopeeling can be considered as an acceptable procedure of upper eyelid rejuvenation mentioned by patients and physicians. Micropunch blepharopeeling causes fewer scars, better symmetry, and less pain.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
