Dr Pradeep Mettu, MD, Raleigh, North Carolina (27607) 68 Year Old Lady Treated With Surgery For Heavy Eyelids And Internal Ptosis Repair Candidate

This patient presented with drooping of her upper eyelids. In addition to a small amount of excess skin (dermatochalasis), the eyelids were low due to changes in the muscles that open the eyelid (ptosis). The patient underwent bilateral upper blepharoplasty and internal ptosis repair. Not only have the eyelids been raised and the excess skin removed, but the eyelid contour has also been improved. A youthful appearance has been restored.
