Lash Ptosis

Downward rotation of the upper eyelashes. In youth the upper eyelashes are perky. Overtime, the eyelid platform skin, which helps hold the upper eyelid lashes up, becomes lax and the eyelashes rotate down. When severe, the lashes can actually interfere with vision. Lash ptosis is one of those subtle things that make the eyes and the face look haggard. Lashes ptosis is corrected using an anchor blepharoplasty.
