For many people, droopy eyelids, or ptosis, can be more than just an aesthetic issue—they can also affect vision and self-confidence. If you’re not ready to consider surgery but want a way to lift and refresh your eyes, Upneeq offers a simple, non-surgical solution. At Eyelid Center of Utah, Dr. Kian Eftekhari, a board-certified oculofacial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, provides Upneeq as a safe and effective alternative to eyelid surgery.
What is Upneeq and How Does It Work?
Upneeq is a prescription eye drop specifically designed to treat ptosis by lifting the upper eyelid. This innovative product stimulates Müller’s muscle in the eyelid, which gently raises the lid, creating a more open, alert look. Unlike surgical procedures, which require downtime and a more intensive recovery, Upneeq offers an easy, on-the-go solution for droopy eyelids.
Patients typically see the effects within 5-10 minutes of application, with the full impact visible within an hour. This quick response makes Upneeq a convenient choice for individuals seeking immediate results without the commitment of surgery.
Why Choose Upneeq Over Surgery?
For those who have mild to moderate ptosis or want to avoid the commitment of surgery, Upneeq provides several advantages:
- Non-Invasive: There’s no need for incisions or anesthesia—just a drop in each eye.
- Immediate Results: Patients can enjoy a lifted appearance within minutes, making it ideal for social events or important meetings.
- No Downtime: Unlike eyelid surgery, which requires time off for recovery, Upneeq allows you to carry on with your day right after application.
Many patients appreciate the simplicity of Upneeq as it provides an option to achieve an improved look without the recovery time and risks associated with surgery.
Who is Upneeq Best Suited For?
Upneeq is an excellent option for adults experiencing droopy eyelids due to aging, muscle weakness, or other factors. Dr. Eftekhari works closely with each patient to ensure Upneeq is a safe and effective choice based on their specific needs and health history. He offers comprehensive evaluations to help you make an informed decision about whether this treatment aligns with your aesthetic goals.
What to Expect from Your Upneeq Treatment at Eyelid Center of Utah
The convenience and ease of Upneeq make it appealing for many patients. After applying a single drop in each eye, you can expect:
- Quick, Visible Lift: Your eyelids should begin to lift within minutes, with optimal results appearing about an hour after application.
- Temporary Effects for Flexible Use: Upneeq’s effects last several hours, so you can choose when to use it based on your schedule.
For individuals interested in a non-permanent solution, Upneeq offers flexibility and ease, letting you enhance your appearance as needed.
