BACKGROUND: Dermatochalasis is frequently associated with tissue ageing and leads to multiple functional and cosmetic issues. There are several possible medical and surgical treatments available, such as blepharoplasty and laser therapy. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this work was to evaluate plasma exeresis as a new technique for nonsurgical treatment of dermatochalasis of the upper eyelid. PATIENT AND METHODS: This clinical trial included 40 female patients with dermatochalasis. Each patient received 3 sessions of treatment with the technology of plasma exeresis with one-month interval. Final evaluation was performed three months after the last session by 2 blinded dermatologists and 2 ophthalmologists, lid laxity according to facial laxity rating scale (FLRS), marginal crease distance (MCD) before and after treatment and patient satisfaction score. RESULTS: There was a significant decrease in eye lid laxity (FLRS) after treatment where p < .001; 36 (90%) patients had change and 4 (10%) patients without change in general. There was a significant increase in MCD after treatment (p = .001). CONCLUSION: Plasma exeresis seems to improve appearance of the upper eyelid, without any serious adverse events and could be a valid solution for dermatochalasis especially in mild and moderate cases.
