Abstract	Cosmetic blepharoplasty is the hallmark of facial rejuvenation and is rewarding for the surgeon and patient. No other cosmetic procedure is more common in the 40- to 65-year age group. This procedure carries a steep learning curve, but the training of an oral and maxillofacial surgeon is adequate to begin learning this procedure. Proper diagnosis and adherence to strict preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative protocols are paramount to avoiding complications that may be serious. The author, like many surgeons, enjoys this procedure and believes that its place in the contemporary scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery is well established.
