Eyelid Ptosis Surgery Frontalis Sling Fixation

3d try-on

In this procedure, a surgeon attaches the upper eyelid to the frontalis muscle—the muscle just above the eyebrows—typically with the use of a small silicone rod that is passed through the eyelid, underneath the skin. Connecting the eyelid to the frontalis muscle with this rod allows the forehead muscles to elevate the eyelid.

Concerns Treated


Eyelid Malposition

Ptosis of the eyelid, otherwise known as eyelid malposition, is a condition that affects the eyelids and makes them look drooping, tired, and aged. If the condition is severe enough, symptoms can become more than cosmetic, and treatment could be a health issue that requires medical intervention. However, some people looking to correct ptosis are seeking out ways to look younger and more attractive.

Eye Ptosis

Eye ptosis is a condition where the upper eyelid sags or droops. It is most commonly caused by dysfunction of the levator muscle but can also be caused by trauma, heredity, and some medical conditions. Outpatient surgery can often correct ptosis to enhance both vision and physical appearance.

Sagging & Hooded Eyelids

No one wants to look like Sleepy from the Seven Dwarves, but eyelid drooping and sagging is a common concern for many individuals regardless of age, gender, or race.
