Interventions
- Ziplyft Device — DEVICEZiplyft 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 — OTHERStandard 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.
Study Details
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.

Arms
- Experimental: Comparing Ziplyft Device Treatment to Standard BlepharoplastyZiplyft is a Class 1, 510(k) Exempt device for removing excess unwanted eyelid skin. Ziplyft will be used on one side of the participant's face to compress the excess skin prior to excess eyelid skin removal. Standard blepharoplasty will be performed on the fellow side of the participant's face.
Primary Outcome Measure
Compare surgical case time for Ziplyft treatment versus standard blepharoplasty [ Time Frame: From the beginning of the surgical case until surgery has been completed ]
