Ptosis (Droopy Eyelid) Repair Surgery

When the upper eyelid droops, it gives the eyes and face a tired, sleepy appearance. It can also make the eyes look older. Droopy eyes are more common among older individuals. Ptosis is a condition that can cause the upper eyelid to droop or close slightly, changing the form and function of the eyes. At LM Medical NYC, we offer ptosis or droopy eyelid repair surgery at our state-of-the-art facilities in Manhattan.

Ptosis is a condition that affects the function of the upper eyelid. The upper eyelid may not open completely, causing a droopy, sleepy appearance. In some cases, ptosis can impact vision, reducing the scope of eyesight. Ptosis can affect people of any age, even children, but it is more common as a side effect of aging. Ptosis repair surgery restores the proper function of the upper eyelid and improves the appearance of the eye.

Droopy Eyelid Correction

Ptosis repair surgery resembles an upper blepharoplasty, or eyelid lift, but it is often more complex. Excess skin and fat can be removed, and the tissue on the upper eyelid can be tightened. However, restoring the function of the eyelid can require more than just a cosmetic droopy eyelid correction.

Dr. Lesley Rabach is a double board certified facial plastic surgeon who specializes in performing cosmetic and reconstructive eyelid procedures. If you are affected by ptosis, or droopy eyelids, renowned facial surgeon Dr. Lesley offers options to improve the appearance and function of your eyes. With ptosis repair surgery, you can restore open, alert eyes that can help you look more youthful and energetic.

  • Dr. Morgan Rabach and her staff provide top tier care and excellent service. Dr. Rabach is well-versed in the latest research. She made lots of time to discuss my dermatological history (what’s worked, what hasn’t worked, what hasn’t been tried) and all the available treatments to find the best path forward. She didn’t settle - pushing to make sure I got the best results possible. Would recommend without any reservations!

  • The staff are incredibly friendly and so helpful. The wait times are very short, the space is clean and modern, and they're very quick to respond to questions over the phone or email. I needed a detailed receipt for my insurance and they gave me two different versions until my insurance was satisfied. The doctors are friendly, laid back, and really listen which is awesome. Would highly recommend!!
