Open Your Eyes, Restore Symmetry—Safely and Naturally

Ptosis correction (levator repair/advancement) treats a weak or elongated eyelid-lifting muscle so the upper lid opens properly, improving eye openness, symmetry, and visual comfort. At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, a female board-certified facial surgeon calibrates lift and crease height for a refreshed, natural look—never over-pulled.

よくある質問

眼瞼下垂の修復は二重まぶたの手術と同じですか？いいえ、眼瞼下垂の修復はまぶたを上げる筋肉を強化するため、必要に応じて同時に二重まぶたのシワを作ったり、整えたりすることも可能です。

Will my eyes feel dry?
Temporary dryness can occur; we use lubrication protocols and conservative lift to protect comfort.

Can only one eye be corrected?
Yes—unilateral or asymmetric correction is common; we match height and shape carefully.
