Suggest Treatment For Ptosis

Posted on Mon, 2 Feb 2015

Question: Hi Doctor,

This concern is regarding my eyes my right eye is slightly smaller than the other ehich is quite obvious and embarrassing due to the droopy skin or I guess it's called as hooded eyes. Kindly suggest what's the best possible solution whether it's forehead lift or blepharoplasty or skin tightening in any case

Brief Answer:
Forehead lift is the best

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

In my opinion a forehead lift is best treatment for Ptosis (drooping eyelid) you have. This is because forehead lift has least complications and cause no disfigurement in future. Any other surgeries involving the lid plate can cause undesirable puckering and can damage the figure.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.

Brief Answer:
Repitation and cost is subjective

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing back.

The best hospitals for such an Eye care in XXXXXXX would be XXXXXXX netralaya in West of cord road and Vasan eye care in Hosur road.

The cost and repitation of the procedure depends on the degree of the ptosis you have and the response you give to the first surgery.
