What is Upneeq?

Upneeq is the first and only non-invasive treatment option for patients with low-lying lids, allowing patients with acquired ptosis to have their upper lids lifted to open the eyes and provide a more youthful and rested appearance. It is FDA-approved to deliver the results you need with a simple eyedrop medication obtained by prescription.

What is acquired ptosis?

Acquired ptosis is common as we age and is often caused by weakening muscles and skin around the eye. This can be because of several factors, including sun damage, aging, contact lens wear, and more. When ptosis occurs, it can cause your upper eyelids to sag, making you look tired or older than you actually are.

How does Upneeq work?

The active ingredient in Upneeq is oxymetazoline hydrochloride 0.1%, which works by constricting blood vessels and temporarily tightening the muscles around the eye. That increases tone and elasticity, allowing the eyelid to be lifted for a temporary period. The results are typically visible within minutes after administration. And can last for up to eight hours, allowing you to enjoy a more youthful appearance when you need it most.

Is Upneeq safe?

Yes, Upneeq is considered safe for most patients when used as directed. Some potential side effects can occur, such as temporary burning or stinging upon administration, increased tearing, or dryness of the eyes. These side effects are typically mild and do not last long.
