FAQs

How does UpNeeq Work?

UpNeeq contains a small amount of a prescription medication that causes the muscle in the eyelid to contract which lifts the eyelid to a more natural position.

Are there any side effects?

The most common adverse reactions with UPNEEQ (occurring in 1-5% of patients) were eye inflammation, eye redness, dry eye, blurred vision, eye pain at time of use, eye irritation, and headache.

How long does it take to see results?

Once you instill the eye drops, you will start seeing the eyelids lift in about 15-20 minutes. However, results peak at about 2 hours after the drops are instilled. Results last 10 hours to get you through your entire day!

Do I have to use the drops every day?

One of our favorite things about UpNeeq eye drops is that you do not have to use them everyday. You can use them only when you need to look your most refreshed! Although, they are safe to use everyday if you would like.
