If you’ve noticed that your upper eyelids seem heavier or your eyes look more tired than they used to, you’re not alone. Many of us develop this frustrating issue as we age, but Upneeq® now offers a simple and easy-to-use solution.
At Lost Key Med Spa, our experienced nurse practitioners are proud to offer Upneeq, the first and only prescription eye drop to lift low-lying eyelids temporarily, in our beautiful Pensacola, FL, med spa. It noninvasively lifts sagging lids and restores a refreshed, open-eyed appearance.
Understanding Droopy Lids
Drooping eyelids, also known as acquired ptosis, can develop gradually and make you appear less alert or older than you feel. Acquired ptosis often results from the gradual weakening of the muscles that lift the eyelid.
Aging, eye fatigue, long-term contact lens wear, or even certain medical conditions can contribute as well.
Beyond changing how your eyes look, droopy lids can subtly affect your vision by narrowing your field of view.
While surgery has traditionally been the only option for correcting lid droop, Upneeq offers an exciting nonsurgical alternative that fits easily into your daily routine.
How Upneeq Works
Upneeq is an FDA-approved prescription eye drop containing oxymetazoline hydrochloride, a medication that stimulates the Müller’s muscle in the upper eyelid. This small muscle helps raise the eyelid naturally.
A single drop of Upneeq in each eye, once a day, activates this muscle to contract, resulting in a visible lift that can make your eyes appear wider and more awake within minutes.
Most patients notice results within 5 minutes of applying the drops, with the lift lasting up to 8 hours. When used consistently, Upneeq provides a reliable, temporary improvement for mild to moderate eyelid droop.
Benefits of Upneeq
Upneeq is an appealing option for patients seeking subtle, immediate results without downtime or discomfort. Because it’s a topical treatment, there’s no recovery period.
Just apply one drop in each eye, early in the day, for eyes that look brighter and more refreshed all day.
Many of our patients who choose other aesthetic treatments, such as neurotoxins or fillers, find that Upneeq is a great way to enhance their results further and achieve an overall rejuvenated look.
Patients love that Upneeq can enhance confidence before important events, photos, or professional engagements. It’s also safe for daily use when used under the guidance of our qualified providers.
