Ptosis Correction

(50% reduction as an add-on procedure) Ptosis is the drooping of the upper eyelid, making the eye opening appear smaller and more noticeable when tired or in photos. It is often corrected at the same time as upper eyelid surgery using a minimally invasive technique, as determined during consultation with Dr. Chesnut
