Eye surgery

Ptosis correction

MOOi treats ptosis at the source by strengthening and repositioning the levator muscle rather than only changing the outer appearance. Surgery takes about an hour.

Who it suits

  • Eyes that never open fully and always look sleepy
  • Needing to raise the brows to open the eyes
  • Uneven eye opening between the two sides

Technique highlights

  • Available non-incisionally (five to seven micro openings) or through an incision
  • The levator is knotted with special suture to strengthen eye opening
  • The crease is designed together with the muscle correction

Surgical steps

  • Measure levator function and map nerve position
  • Design the line to preference and tissue condition
  • Adjust the muscle and fix the crease

Recovery & aftercare

  • About one hour of surgery with an immediate return to daily life
  • Sutures out at seven days for the incisional method; none for the non-incisional method

Risks & things to consider

  • Results depend on individual anatomy and after-care.
  • Every operation carries risks and possible complications; consult a specialist first.
  • Surgery time and recovery figures come from MOOi's official pages and may change after the doctor's assessment.
