Eyelid drooping is a condition that can result in sagging skin of the eyelid that may even obstruct one’s vision. This droopy eyelid is often caused by the levator muscle that may reduce and limit control. This condition is often seen in Asian patients but can occur to anyone, especially aging individuals who are experiencing extreme skin laxity on the face. Dr. Edmund Kwan, MD is a plastic surgeon in the NYC area who can help these patients with drooping eyelid surgery.
Eyelid ptosis can be surgically improved in just one procedure. During this treatment, Dr. Edmund Kwan, MD will tighten the levator muscle that can greatly improve eyelid ptosis on its own. When necessary, he can also remove extra skin from the area to help tighten up the eyes and reduce the tired, aging appearance. He can also recreate an upper eyelid crease to ensure beautiful, natural-looking results. Most anyone can deal with eyelid ptosis, though the condition is often seen in Asian patients due to their ethnic characteristics.
