What Is Ptosis Surgery?

Ptosis surgery is a precise medical procedure designed to safely elevate heavy, drooping upper eyelids. By lifting sagging skin, the treatment restores a fresh, awake appearance and, if the eyelid was previously blocking your sight, improves your vision. This targeted surgery directly addresses heavy lids that can make you look constantly tired, helping you achieve a beautifully natural and lifted eye contour.

Why Choose Ptosis Surgery?

You may choose this eyelid surgery if you:

Have heavy, drooping upper eyelids that obscure your vision.

Struggle with a constantly tired or sad expression.

Notice upper facial sagging that impacts your confidence.

Want to safely elevate the eyelid margin for a more open eye.

Desire a permanent, structural result from a trusted medical professional.

How Does Ptosis Surgery Work?

As part of the procedure, we make a small incision within the natural fold of the upper eyelid. We carefully adjust the underlying muscle to lift the drooping lid safely and, if needed, remove or reshape any excess skin. We then use very fine sutures to close the area neatly. The treatment creates a smoother, firmer eyelid contour and a more awake appearance, with scars that remain virtually invisible.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is ptosis surgery?+

Ptosis surgery lifts drooping upper eyelids by tightening the eyelid muscles. It helps improve both vision and the appearance of the eyes.

Is the ptosis surgery painful?+

We administer a local anaesthetic to fully numb the area, so you will not feel pain during the procedure. You may only experience mild discomfort afterwards.

How long is the recovery time?+

You usually need a week or two to recover at home. Any mild swelling or bruising fades straightaway within the first fortnight.

Will I have visible scars?+

Dr Tanov hides the discreet incisions carefully within your natural eyelid creases. They heal brilliantly and become virtually invisible.

Will this surgery improve my vision?+

Yes, by lifting the heavy, drooping eyelid that covers your eye, this procedure safely and effectively restores your full field of vision.
