[Upper blepharoplasty, a plea for a high and longer scar].

The review of 42 cases of upper blepharoplasties operated since 2020 has confirmed the validity of our technique of significant resection of skin in the upper eyelid, leaving 10 to 12mm of skin above the eyelashes, and remaining approximately 8 to 10mm above the eyebrow line; we named the design of this surgery under the name of an Italian elegant sports car, because of the particular curves of this car in the rear part, which rises a little upwards, like the external segments of the skin resection that we recommend in the practice of an upper blepharoplasty; a hindsight of almost 35 years showed that this procedure had great value due to the durability of the result; nevertheless it is appropriate to discuss this surgical orientation in a context where Asian surgeons rather recommend short scars and a much lower situation than that which we practice in our European patients.
