Arleen was suffering from ptosis which is the dropping or falling of the upper eyelid. Her ophthalmologist suggested an upper eyelid surgery also known as a blepharoplasty. Arleen consulted with a board-certified plastic surgeon that performed surgery on her upper eyelid.
The plastic surgeon treated Arleen’s ptosis with a simple procedure that shortened the cords in her upper eyelids while under anesthesia. Arleen woke up with a few stitches from the procedure and about a week later the stitches were out.
“People worry about the pain but all I needed was extra strength Tylenol at night, during the day I was fine. I saw a very big difference in the quality of my life because I was able to read and drive without positioning my head back,” explained Arleen.
