The surgical procedure on the upper eyelid for a “drooping eyelid” involves the removal of excess skin, tailored to your individual needs. Depending on the findings, additional removal of protruding fatty tissue and a correction of the eyelid crease height may be necessary. Tightening the muscle surrounding the eye is often also beneficial to achieve a long-lasting result. If required, an eyebrow lift can be performed through the same incision.
