Comparative Study of Ziplyft Treatment vs. Traditional Blepharoplasty for Upper Eyelid Rejuvenation
Sponsor: Osheru Inc.
Summary
This study will compare two surgery techniques used for upper eyelid (eyelift) surgery: traditional surgery and a newer method called Ziplyft (a non-powered, hand-held clamp). This study will use a "split-face" design, meaning one eyelid will be treated with the traditional surgery method and the other with Ziplyft, allowing a direct side-by-side comparison. The objectives of the study are to compare Ziplyft treatment vs. traditional surgery by evaluating bruising, wound closure and incision, surgery case time, and subject/surgeon surveys.

Interventions
Ziplyft Device
Ziplyft will be used on one side of the participant's face to compress the excess skin prior to excess eyelid skin removal. Ziplyft compresses the excess skin and seals it together, no suturing is required, and the surgery incision will be closed with tissue adhesive.
Comparator Arm: Standard Blepharoplasty
Standard blepharoplasty will be used on the fellow side of the participant's face. Standard blepharoplasty uses a blade, cautery to seal blood vessels, and sutures to close the incision.
