Ptosis correction in Busan
— open a drooping eye.
Ptosis correction strengthens the muscle that lifts the upper eyelid when it droops over the eye, improving both a sleepy appearance and, sometimes, vision.

Lift the lid, open the eye.
Ptosis correction treats a drooping upper eyelid by tightening or advancing the levator muscle that lifts it. Unlike a simple cosmetic fold, ptosis can partly cover the pupil and make the eyes look sleepy or uneven, sometimes affecting vision. It is often combined with double eyelid surgery so the fold and lift are designed together. The lift dosing is delicate — too little or too much shows — so a surgeon assesses muscle function carefully. Banobagi Busan explains the procedure, recovery and risks fully; stitches come out in about a week.
We design around your proportions and operate with restraint. Natural is the standard, not the upgrade.
