Overview:
Ptosis correction surgery is popular both for functional and cosmetic reasons. Ptosis, or drooping eyelids, can impair vision by obstructing the visual field, making this surgery essential for improving both aesthetic appearance and functional vision. The procedure lifts the upper eyelid by tightening the muscle responsible for eyelid movement. Ptosis correction can be combined with other procedures, such as double eyelid surgery, for a more dramatic improvement in appearance.
Additional Costs:
- Pre-surgery consultation
- Post-surgery medications and aftercare
- Additional procedures (if combined with other surgeries)
