Looking for top surgeons who specialize in ptosis repair?

BBLdoll2015Feb 22, 2017
I am from Minnesota, having a hard time deciding on a surgeon. I am willing to travel anywhere within the US. I understand this procedure has a high revision rate and I am just looking for the most experienced surgeons, I understand nothing is guarenteed but just trying to lower my chances of needing a revision. Thank you.

Eyelid ptosis surgery can be tough, especially repeat ptosis surgery. However, there is a special procedure I use for revision eyelid ptosis surgery that has high success rate. See following link.

While the two conditions may occur together, they are not directly related and/or causative. Congenital ptosis is usually related to maldevelopment of the levator muscle.
