Upneeq is specifically designed to treat acquired ptosis in adults. Acquired ptosis means that your eyelids have begun to droop over time, often as a natural part of aging. This is different from congenital ptosis, which is present from birth.
Here’s why acquired ptosis occurs:
- Weakened muscles: The muscles responsible for holding your eyelids up can lose strength as you age.
- Stretched tendons: The tendons that connect your eyelid muscles can stretch out, leading to drooping.
- Nerve issues: Certain medical conditions can affect the nerves controlling your eyelid muscles.
Upneeq is a helpful option if you have mild to moderate acquired ptosis. It’s important to consult with a healthcare professional at AIVI Aesthetics in Agoura Hills to determine if Upneeq is the right treatment for your specific eye condition.
