Asymmetry & Creases: We correct uneven drooping eyelids and address the presence of unwanted multiple folds.
Function & Appearance: We resolve the inability to fully open the eyes and eliminate the tired, "sleepy" look associated with muscle weakness.
Results are achieved through the specialized EYE-LOCK™ technique, a pioneering approach authored and performed uniquely by Dr. Choladhis.
If you are currently wondering where to undergo ptosis (eyelid muscle weakness) correction, look no further. At TRP Hospital, we feature a team of highly specialized ophthalmologists who can expertly adjust your eyelid muscles to create beautifully defined and naturally sharp eyelid creases. Best of all, it is an outpatient procedure, meaning you can return home comfortably immediately after completion.
"Backed by genuine reviews from actual patients and renowned celebrities, you can confidently put to rest any doubts or questions often found in online forum threads regarding ptosis. Here at TRP Hospital, our extensive portfolio of Master-Class Surgical Results serves as proven evidence of our technique: minimal incisions, rapid recovery, and beautifully natural eyelid creases."
Eyelid muscle weakness, medically known as PTOSIS or drooping eyelids, is a condition characterized by the inability to open the eyes entirely due to impaired eyelid function. Many patients frequently ask: "What are the initial symptoms of eyelid muscle weakness?"
Generally, the early signs of ptosis can be observed as sleepy or tired-looking eyes, difficulty fully opening the eyes, and a frequent, subconscious need to raise the eyebrows to see more clearly. This condition can affect individuals of all genders and ages, and it may occur in both eyes (bilaterally) or manifest in just one eye (unilaterally).
"What causes eyelid muscle weakness? Many individuals wonder about the specific factors that lead to ptosis. In reality, this condition can stem from a variety of causes. These include congenital ptosis (being present from birth), the natural stretching of the eyelid muscles as we age, and certain lifestyle habits, such as prolonged contact lens wear or frequent eye rubbing. Furthermore, eyelid muscle weakness can also be caused by underlying neurological or autoimmune disorders, such as Myasthenia Gravis (MG), which we will explain in detail below."
Repetitive use over time causes the eyelid muscles to stretch and lose strength. This often forces individuals to unconsciously raise their eyebrows or wrinkle their forehead to improve visibility.
Daily behaviors such as prolonged contact lens use, excessive screen time on smartphones or computers, and frequent eye rubbing can contribute to the issue. Additionally, accidents causing muscle tears in the area are a known cause.
Previous unsuccessful double eyelid surgery may have inadvertently damaged the underlying eye muscles, leading to this condition.
Conditions affecting the nervous system, such as Myasthenia Gravis , can impair neurotransmitter function, preventing the eyelid muscles from lifting effectively.
In some cases, the condition may be caused by tumors or growths pressing against the eye area.
Understanding the Mechanics: The core issue of ptosis stems from abnormalities in the muscles responsible for opening the eye—specifically the Levator and Muller muscles, which work in tandem. While various treatments exist, modern approaches prioritize muscle locking combined with a "Small Incision Double Eyelid" technique.
The Teeraporn Difference: Unlike traditional methods that require long incisions to excise tissue or invasive internal surgery to trim the muscle, our approach is distinct. The "Eye Muscle Locking" method is a specialized technique developed by the ophthalmology professor team at Teeraporn Hospital. It effectively resolves muscle weakness while minimizing trauma, offering a superior and efficient solution.
"If you are currently researching how to correct ptosis (eyelid muscle weakness) or seeking a treatment method that delivers clear, effective results, there are various approaches available today. However, at TRP Hospital, we specialize in treatments utilizing our minimally invasive double eyelid technique. Correcting ptosis through our signature short-incision technique (embracing a 'Less is More' philosophy) ensures the absolute minimum disruption to your delicate eye tissues.
For anyone looking to correct eyelid muscle weakness or planning their treatment journey, our esteemed team of specialist surgeons will carefully evaluate your condition to determine the most appropriate and effective approach tailored to you—whether that involves an internal incision, an external incision, or utilizing the lifting power of the forehead muscles (frontalis suspension)."
Procedure Overview: In this method, the incision is placed on the inner surface of the eyelid, ensuring that there are absolutely no visible external scars.
Procedure Overview: This approach involves creating a short external incision through the skin to directly access and adjust the underlying eye muscle layers.
Severe Case Correction: This advanced method harnesses the lifting power of the forehead muscles to open the eyelid. It is specifically suited for patients with severe ptosis, a condition often found in congenital cases. Due to the complexity of the procedure, it requires the precision of a highly specialized surgeon.

"Is ptosis dangerous? While this condition is not life-threatening, it frequently interferes with your daily visual function. It can obstruct your line of sight and significantly impact your overall appearance and self-confidence."
"For patients exploring non-surgical options for ptosis, if the underlying cause is an autoimmune condition such as Myasthenia Gravis (MG), it may be effectively managed with prescribed oral medications. However, if the muscle weakness is due to naturally stretched eyelid muscles or structural sagging, TRP Hospital's signature minimally invasive surgical technique (Less is More) is the most precisely targeted approach and provides the most effective, long-lasting results."
"For those inquiring about the cost of ptosis treatment or wondering if eyelid muscle correction is expensive, please understand that the exact price of surgery and overall treatment fees depend entirely on a thorough, personalized assessment of each individual patient's specific condition. (You are welcome to add our LINE account to receive a free preliminary evaluation and cost estimate.)"
"Many patients inquire whether their social security benefits can be applied to ptosis (eyelid muscle weakness) treatment. Generally, if the procedure is classified primarily as cosmetic surgery, it is not covered under the social security scheme. However, to ensure you receive the utmost value and peace of mind, TRP Hospital provides a comprehensive, complimentary post-operative care package. This includes soothing cold compresses, advanced infrared light therapy, and a full 1-year guarantee on your results."
If you are struggling with weak eyelids, drooping eyes, an inability to fully open your eyes, or a heavy sensation in just one eye, TRP Hospital offers a targeted solution. The EYE-LOCK Technique: Our expert medical team utilizes the EYE-LOCK technique combined with a short-incision eye muscle adjustment, embracing a "less is more" philosophy. This approach goes in to securely lock the weakened eye muscles, restoring their strength and function.
Natural Results and Quick Recovery: By correcting the underlying muscle weakness, both eyes become perfectly symmetrical and naturally bright. Because this procedure uses a minimal incision, you will experience very little swelling or bruising, allowing you to return home and resume your normal daily activities immediately after completion.
Efficiency & Aesthetics: Correcting eye muscle weakness using Dr. Choladhis's short incision principles is a method designed to deliver maximum efficiency with minimal physical trauma. This approach provides a comprehensive solution that restores proper muscle function while simultaneously enhancing aesthetic beauty.
Core Advantages: The defining characteristics of this procedure are its ability to produce wide, bright, and beautiful eyes through a short incision with significantly reduced swelling.
