When droopy eyelids start to interfere with your daily life, we are here for you. Our medical spa team will help you understand how this innovative product works and what it can do for you.
What is Blepharoptosis?
Blepharoptosis is the medical name for droopy eyelids. Eyes will often appear small or tired when you have this condition. Low-lying eyelids often interfere with your field of view and limit your vision.
The Way UPNEEQ Works
UPNEEQ works to quickly lift eyelids in as little as two hours. Most patients with acquired ptosis see a lift almost immediately. Our medical specialist inserts a tiny amount of UPNEEQ eye drops into your eyes. This solution contains oxymetazoline that helps your muscles contract. Yes, this ingredient is the same one found in over-the-counter nasal decongestants. In nasal spray, it works to stimulate blood vessels to contract. In UPNEEQ, it works to stimulate the eyelid’s muscle contraction.
How Long Does UPNEEQ Last?
We will consult with you to determine the amount of UPNEEQ you need. The eye drops should be used once daily. The uplifting effect generally lasts about six hours.
UPNEEQ Candidates
The perfect candidates for UPNEEQ are typically those with mild to moderate ptosis. If you aren’t taking any medications that interfere with UPNEEQ, you are a good candidate. It’s important to note that UPNEEQ cannot cure genetic droopy eyelids. You should not take UPNEEQ if it you are taking any beta-blockers, cardiac glycosides, or anti-hypertensive medications.
UPNEEQ vs. Eyelid Lift Surgery
UPNEEQ works miracles for droopy eyelids, but it is not a permanent fix. It cannot be used as a substitute for eyelid lift surgery. Blepharoplasty surgery offers permanent results that treat genetic and acquired droopy eyelids. UPNEEQ gives you a temporary alternative to help your eyes function throughout the day. You’ll feel refreshed with wide eyes but will need to reapply the eye drops to maintain the effects.
