Prescription Eye Drops — Lift Low-Lying Lids Without Surgery
Looking for a way to look more awake—without injections or surgery? At TimeLyss Med Spa in New York, NY, we offer Upneeq®, the first and only FDA-approved prescription eye drop for acquired ptosis (low-lying upper eyelids) in adults. This non-invasive, daily-use treatment slightly lifts the eyelids to improve appearance and vision.
Acquired ptosis often occurs with age, leading to a tired or heavy-lidded appearance. In some cases, it can even block part of your upper field of vision. With Upneeq®, you can experience a refreshed, more open-eyed appearance without downtime or commitment. Schedule your Upneeq® consultation at TimeLyss Med Spa in New York, NY, and determine if this fast, non-invasive prescription drop is right for you.
The only FDA-approved prescription eye drop for acquired ptosis. Upneeq® drops work by stimulating the eyelid’s Müller’s muscle, causing a temporary lift of 1-3 mm.

This creates a more lifted eyelid position to open up the eyes and refresh your overall look.
