## UPNEEQ®
Upneeq® is a non-surgical solution that treats low-lying eyelids and provides patients with a lifted and refreshed appearance. Drooping eyelids, medically known as ptosis, can not only affect the way you look, but also the way you see. Acquired ptosis, or drooping eyelids, can arise from a number of reasons, including aging, stretching of muscles and ligaments, nerve damage, and more. With a single daily dose, Upneeq® patients can enjoy the transformative effects of lifted upper eyelids and an overall well-rested appearance. At Asaadi Plastic Surgery, we can help you achieve a rejuvenated appearance by non-surgically lifting the upper eyelids using Upneeq®.
### WHAT IS UPNEEQ® NON-SURGICAL EYELID LIFT?
Upneeq® is the only FDA-approved daily eye drop prescribed to treat acquired ptosis or drooping of the upper eyelids. Often developed later in life, drooping eyelids affect millions of people over the age of 40, affecting both self-confidence and vision. With a once-daily dose, patients can see a noticeable difference in the appearance and functionality of their eyelids. Using some of the latest medical advancements, Upneeq® requires no risky procedures or extensive surgery in order for patients to achieve bright, well-rested eyes.
It is often believed that the only solution to low-lying eyelids is undergoing a surgical eyelid procedure. However, this is not the case. Upneeq® offers NJ patients a non-surgical eyelid lift that is a painless solution to drooping eyelids. When used daily, patients can experience the benefits of Upneeq® for a minimum of 6 hours with just one drop. Upneeq® is safe for those who wear contacts or are currently using other eye drops. The effects of Upneeq® can be seen in as little as 5 minutes after applying the drops.
Upneeq® is a safe and effective way to achieve a lifted appearance of the eyes without having to undergo eyelid surgery. Upneeq® can be prescribed in-office once Dr. Asaadi performs a thorough evaluation to determine whether or not you are the right candidate. During your visit, Dr. Asaadi will discuss the proper use and answer any questions you may have concerning Upneeq®.

### WHAT CAN I EXPECT BEFORE STARTING UPNEEQ®?
Your Upneeq® consultation will begin with a discussion of your medical history and general health with our renowned eyelid surgeon, Dr. Asaadi. Dr. Asaadi will then evaluate the condition of your eyelids and determine whether or not you are a candidate for Upneeq®. If so, Dr. Asaadi will prescribe Upneeq® and go over how the medication is to be used, potential side effects, drug interactions, and more.
An ideal candidate for Upneeq® is someone with acquired ptosis who is looking to lift and open their eyes without having to undergo a surgical procedure. While visible improvements will be seen, Upneeq® does not provide the results of a traditional eyelid lift. Dr. Asaadi will discuss what to expect and if Upneeq® is a realistic solution for you.
### WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER STARTING UPNEEQ® NON-SURGICAL EYELID LIFT?
Upon using Upneeq® for the first time, patients can achieve lifted results in as little as 5 minutes. It is recommended that patients wait at least 15 minutes after applying Upneeq® before using any other eye medications or contact lenses. Although side effects are rare, some patients may experience temporary stinging, irritation, dry eyes, or blurred vision.
Most patients will see a noticeable difference after using Upneeq® for the first time. However, if you aren’t satisfied with the effects, Dr. Asaadi would be happy to discuss alternative options for treating drooping eyelids.
### THE IMPORTANCE OF CHOOSING A HIGHLY EXPERIENCED UPNEEQ® DOCTOR
It is important that you choose a doctor that is knowledgeable in the anatomy of the eyelids as well as the causes and treatment of ptosis. Dr. Asaadi stresses the importance of choosing a qualified, experienced, and board-certified plastic surgeon when considering surgical or non-surgical eyelid treatments.
### HOW CAN I GET STARTED WITH UPNEEQ® NON-SURGICAL EYELID LIFT?

### PATIENT TESTIMONIALS
Dear Dr. Asaadi,
I have always had bags under my eyes, but as I became older, they seemed to get worse.  Every time I looked in the mirror, all I saw were those bags.  At least once a day at work, someone would ask me if I was tired. So, when my daughter announced her engagement, I thought it was time to do something. I made an appointment with Dr. Asaadi to see what my options were. My surgery was scheduled for August of 2012.
I was scared and apprehensive, but it was the right decision. I feel like a new person.  No one asks me anymore if I am tired and I don’t shy away from having my picture taken.  Dr. Asaadi and his staff have been terrific, so caring and professional.  I only took one week off from work, and the bruising was minimal.
I probably would still have the bags if my daughter didn’t get married.
But, I am so thankful I had the surgery.  And I was the proud mother of the bride.  - M.W.
I have known Dr. Asaadi for fifteen years.  I first met him in my fifties. I look tired and worn out and looking for a more youthful appearance. In meeting Dr. Asaadi he presented a picture of a very sincere and up standing person.
He took the time to go over my goals and together we outlined what was needed. I had rhinoplasty and eye corrective surgery. Down time was minimal and the results perfect.
Several years later I had a face lift and again was completely satisfied.
Presently I am 69 years old looking way better than when I first met with him. Let me add that since my surgery Dr. Asaadi has maintained my youthful appearance by using injectable fillers. He is a true genius and a very honest person whom I highly recommend.
Also his staff is the best - A.E.
Just a short note to tell you how happy I am and to thank you for your wonderful work. As soon as I walked out the door from our first consultation, I had this “feeling” and I knew you were the one I could put 100% trust in. Thank you for your attention to detail, the care you’ve shown me, and your warm personality. I count myself luck to know you.
Thanks and all the best to you!

“I am so very grateful for the tummy tuck that Dr. Asaadi performed on me. Dr. Asaadi has proven to me to be a meticulous artist of the body. I felt that the office and staff compares to no other. It has been 5 years since my surgery, I am 42 years old and I am feeling and looking just as good if not better since surgery. I am more confident putting on my clothing, especially bathing suits. Dr. Asaadi gave me my belly back from 20 years ago (pre-babies)."
I not only feel better in the way in which my body looks, but most important it changed the way I view myself inside and out.

My name is Paula and about a month ago you gave me some botox injections. I had recently finished nine months of very tough treatment for a stage III breast cancer and I was neither feeling nor looking my best. My hair had just begun to grow but I still was showing way too much forehead for my comfort zone so I thought perhaps a little botox would give me a "lift".
Well, I cannot say enough about my results. I feel fantastic about the way my skin looks. In fact, the other evening I bumped into some friends at a restaurant. The first thing they said to me was "your skin looks fabulous! Even better than before your diagnosis." Now that's amazing. Since seeing you, I have received numerous compliments about how alive I look. Well, I do have a great attitude but I have to say that your skillful work has really made me feel confident.
Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication. I wish all women who have been through treatment could feel as good as I feel. Thank you Dr. Asaadi.
Best regards,
P.F.
“After 10 years of hearing comments about how tired I appeared, I decided that the time had come for me to take action which required more than just getting extra sleep!!!
I did my research and decided that Dr. Asaadi was the best choice upon seeing the results of past patients and the unique technique that he uses.
Now, close to two years later, I couldn't be happier! Not only do I look 10 years younger, but I now feel refreshed and vibrant. No more comments about how tired I appear.
This surgery not only restored my youth, but it greatly improved my confidence level. As a salesperson and a single girl, this is incredibly Important!!! Whereas prior to the surgery, I couldn't even think about walking out the door without makeup, now I am completely comfortable with it. No more trying to conceal or detract attention from the severe bags under my eyes!!! Friends and relatives, and even sometimes I, cannot believe the difference this surgery has made! One of the best parts is that it looks incredibly natural. No one would ever know I had anything done unless I had told them. A yearlong spa getaway would not have produced such results!"
It was hands down the best money I ever spent!!!!! I feel like I'm a walking billboard for Blepharoplasty.

“Once I decided to undergo a tummy tuck procedure, I knew my appearance would change for the better. What I did not anticipate is what a profound effect the results would have on my overall way of life. Along with giving me the body I wanted, the transformation gave me a great sense of confidence, reassurance, and security with myself. I now walk upright and confident, as opposed to slouched and submissive. I enjoy shopping for clothes and wearing two piece bathing suits on the beach.
If anyone is contemplating having this procedure done, I strongly encourage them to do so."
Thanks to Dr. Asaadi I have the perfect body and a better life. - CT
Thank you - the phrase is simple and the words are few, but behind them lies a world of appreciation. Special people like you make the world a brighter place.
Thank you for helping me get better. Also to improve day by day my special future. I pray God bless your hands to help the life of others.
Love,
A.P.
On May 12, 2010 Dr. Asaadi performed a bilateral reduction mammoplasty, CORE AbdominoplastySM, repair of diastasis recti, VASER® LipoSelection of the back, flanks, upper inner thighs, pubic area, lateral chest walls, and a small area of the upper arms. I was very sore for the first week, but after that I could see improvement every couple of days. The more I walked the better and stronger I felt.
In exactly six weeks after the surgery I went with my daughter, son-in-law, and their 13 month old son to a destination wedding feeling great. My daughter was nervous that I wouldn’t be able to take care of the baby like I needed to ( her and her husband were in the wedding), but I had so much more energy and strength than I did in years. I felt so wonderful in my new clothes, and I can’t begin to express how many compliments I received.....especially in my “Tankini”!!!
I now look forward to getting up in the morning and picking out a nice fitting outfit for the day, and not some loose fitting shirt and baggy pants. Thank you, Dr. Asaadi....you gave me my self-confidence back!!!!”
Thank you, Dr. Asaadi....you gave me my self-confidence back!!!!”

Thank you for all your professionalism and time spent going over the procedure. I am pleased thus far; I can only imagine my gratitude in the months ahead, as I see my nose transforming. I put my face in the hands of a true sculptor and have nothing but praise and recommendation. Your staff are a wonderful representation of your reputation on being a true caring practice. Many Thanks.
Fondly,
