See A Difference With Upneeq
Upneeq is a once-daily prescription eyedrop for acquired ptosis (low-lying lids) that lifts your upper eyelids to open your eyes.
- 30-day supply. One dose, once daily.
- See results in as little as 5-15 minutes;
- lasts up to 6 hours. Significantly improves upper field of vision.
- No more tired-looking or asymmetrical eyes.
- Non-surgical alternative to blepharoplasty.
How It Works
The drops work by activating receptors in the upper eyelid muscle. When the muscle contracts, the upper eyelid can lift by about 2mm, giving a more open, alert look for hours.
Main Benefits
Have you noticed a change in the appearance of your eyes, where your lids are starting to droop? You may have acquired ptosis, or low-lying lids.
Acquired Ptosis (low-lying lids) is a common medical condition that:
- Can develop later in life.
- Affects adults of all ages, but occurs more often with increased age.
-
Usually occurs when the muscles in the eyelid stretch and weaken, causing the upper eyelid to drop. - May be caused by other issues, such as cataract surgery, contact lens wear, or an underlying medical condition.
- It could also be a sign of a more serious medical condition. Acquired ptosis can lead to vision impairment.
Low-lying lids can affect the way you look and see things:
- Blocking your upper field of vision.
- Reducing your field of vision.
- Interfere with daily functions, such as reading, driving, computer use and tilting your head back to look up.
They can also make you feel self-conscious:
- Always looking tired
- Asymmetrical eyes
PRODUCT DETAILS:
Finally! There is a simple and effective alternative to the cosmetic surgery procedure called blepharoplasty, or the removal of excess tissue on the eyelids. No surgery, no down-time. Just brighter, well-rested eyes.
