About Droopy Eyelids
What is Ptosis?
Ptosis is a term used to describe drooping skin in different parts of the body.
Eyelid ptosis can cause both aesthetic and functional issues due to sagging skin in the eyelid and around the eye. Individuals with this issue may have a tired or aged look and wish to improve the appearance of their skin. Some patients may have vision issues because of ptosis and need eyelid surgery for functional correction.
A consultation will be the key to determining exactly the right procedure for you and your specific droopy eyelid needs. Dr. Raghu will examine your eyes and facial features in order to create a totally customized treatment plan which could include upper blepharoplasty, brow lift, lower blepharoplasty, or even other additional procedures for the most comprehensive and harmonious results possible. To prepare for this procedure, you will also discuss options for anesthesia or sedation and lab work may need to be ordered.
