Ptosis Correction Surgery in Korea

“What Is Ptosis Correction?”

Ptosis correction is not only about appearance.
If your eyes look tired, feel heavy to open, or you rely on your forehead to lift your eyelids, ptosis may be affecting both your expression and daily comfort.

When you use your eye muscles to open your eyes, weak eyelid muscles may cause the upper eyelid to cover the pupil, creating a tired or sleepy appearance.
This condition is known as ptosis and should be properly evaluated early, as prolonged overuse of the forehead muscles may lead to forehead wrinkles and eyelid sagging.
Ptosis correction not only improves eye appearance but also enhances functional eye opening and long-term comfort.
