Great news for people who have acquired blepharoptosis, (aka doctor-speak for drooping eyelids) —the FDA just approved Uneeq!
Uneeq is a new eyedrop that lifts your upper eyelids. It is the only product of its kind on the market.
You don’t have to have significantly heavy lids to see an improvement with Upneeq. These images are patients from the clinical trial with varying degrees of eyelid droopiness.
Just one drop in each eye produces these results:
The Scoop on Upneeq
If you come into our office and notice that we are all looking particularly refreshed, it’s not the extra sleep opening our eyes.
Uneeq’s lifting effect lasts about eight hours, and it seems to peak about two hours after you put in the drops. Some of us see results in five minutes, but for most of us, it takes about 15 minutes to notice a change. We’re also noticing that the drops are reducing redness in our eyes, so the whites of the eyes appear more brilliant.
Some people are calling Upneeq a non-surgical blepharoplasty. Because we work in plastic surgery, we know that this is a bit of an exaggeration. But if you want a quick, simple way for your eyes to appear more refreshed, you’ll love these eyedrops.
Upneeq eyedrops come individually wrapped in a box of 45. Each dropper contains enough product for both eyes. If you use it every day, one box will last you 45 days.

Because Upneeq is available by prescription only, it’s not available on our online store. You’ll want to come into our office so we can go over everything you need to know before you pick it up.
The most common side effects of Upneeq were redness and inflammation (1-5% of patients.)
If you wear contact lenses, you should wait fifteen minutes after using Upneeq to put them in. Otherwise, you won’t get the full effect.
