Upper Lid Ptosis Correction

Plastic surgeons at bodySCULPT® in Manhattan, New York City perform upper lid ptosis correction for patients with functional and aesthetic complaints caused by Ptosis or upper eyelid drooping. This age related or congenital condition can affect one or both the eyes with intensity ranging from mild, moderate to severe. The surgical option to correct this is safe and not too complicated, offering excellent aesthetic results.

The corrective surgery for upper lid ptosis involves lifting of the eyelid. This is achieved by tightening the weak levator muscles which cause hooding. The procedure offered at bodySCULPT® is result oriented and customized as per the requirement of individual patients. It is performed with extreme care and precision so that the eyelid retains its normal position, while the eyes achieve a natural and symmetrical look.
