Study Summary

Topical bimatoprost has been shown to cause periorbital changes of soft tissue which are most pronounced when used directly onto the cornea for the treatment of glaucoma. Changes are primarily felt to be the result of prostaglandin-mediated adipocyte loss, resulting in deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus and recession of infraorbital pseudoherniation. Use of topical bimatoprost to the upper eyelid margin, now FDA approved for eyelash enhancement, may provide a metered effect on the periocular tissues and allow for a topical approach to periocular rejuvenation. This is a proof of concept study which aims to enroll a series of patients with mild to severe dermatochalasis, treat with topical bimatoprost 0.03% solution to the upper lid margin, and evaluate for cosmetic improvement of the periocular area.

Primary Outcome

Patients were followed for 12 weeks total, with visits every 4 weeks for a total of 4 visits. Photodocumentation was performed at each visit. At completion of the study period, each patient's photographs at weeks 0 and 12, were graded by 2 blinded evaluators for level of dermatochalasis: -1 (deep upper eyelid sulcus), 0 (no dermatochalasis), 1 (mild, slightly noticeable), 2 (moderate, noticeable), or 3 (severe, distinctive). The change of dermatochalasis (week 12 score subtracted from week 0 sco
