The story
Do your eyelids look sleepy even after a full night of rest?
Ptosis means the upper eyelid sits lower than it should. Many people only notice it when they start raising their eyebrows to see better, and then the forehead lines appear.
Pascal’s approach begins with one idea: the eyelid is a moving mechanism. The first goal is to correct the lid position so the eye opens well, and then the crease is shaped to suit your face.
Two methods are offered, a non-incisional method and a levator-shortening method. Your surgeon chooses between them after examining how your eyelid opens, and the price for each is listed on the page.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is a sunken-looking eyelid always fixed with fat grafting?
Not always. In Dr. Kang’s case notes, the main cause of a sunken-looking eyelid can be ptosis, and grafting fat or filler alone is not the answer in those cases. The exam tells the difference.
Which ptosis method will I need?
That depends on how strongly your eyelid muscle works and how much correction is needed. Non-incisional and levator-shortening methods are both available.
What does ptosis correction cost?
₩2,000,000 for the non-incisional method and ₩3,000,000 for levator shortening, excluding VAT. Revisions start from ₩3,000,000 and ₩4,500,000.
