Ziplyft™ is a minimally invasive upper eyelid treatment that removes excess skin using specialized Compression Skin Contouring technology. It offers an alternative to traditional upper eyelid blepharoplasty for appropriately selected patients.

The procedure itself typically takes approximately 15 minutes and is performed in-office using local anesthesia. Your total appointment time may be longer to allow for preparation and post-treatment instructions.

Local anesthesia is used to numb the treatment area and minimize discomfort. You may experience some pressure during the procedure and mild tenderness or swelling afterward.

Many patients experience minimal bruising and swelling and feel comfortable returning to social activities within approximately 7–10 days. Recovery varies by individual, and your physician will provide specific instructions based on your treatment.

Because Ziplyft™ physically removes excess upper eyelid skin, the improvement is long-lasting rather than temporary. However, the natural aging process continues, and results will vary depending on your skin, anatomy, and other factors.

Traditional blepharoplasty generally involves surgical incisions, tissue removal, and closure with sutures. Ziplyft™ uses a specialized device to compress and remove excess upper eyelid skin, followed by tissue adhesive closure.

Ziplyft™ may offer a quicker procedure and less downtime for appropriate candidates, although traditional blepharoplasty may be more suitable for patients who require more extensive correction.

Absolutely—that's the goal. Ziplyft™ is designed to enhance your natural appearance by removing excess upper eyelid skin, helping your eyes look more open and refreshed without creating an overly dramatic change.
