Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a synthetic inhibitor of plasminogen lysine receptor that has used to reduce intra-operative bleeding in a number of clinical scenarios. Anecdotally, TXA has used by plastic surgeons to reduce post-operative bruising. To date, there is limited data to valid the benefits and to evaluate the side effects of TXA. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of local TXA on edema and ecchymosis in eyelid surgery.
