ABSTRACT:
An adhesive tape and method for use thereof in non-surgically taking a tuck in loose skin such as that comprising the upper eyelid. When applied to a drooping upper eyelid by stretching the skin of the eyelid away from the ciliary margin, applying the tape to the eyelid, and then folding the skin of the upper eyelid down to be attached to the other side of the tape and then back upon itself, a pseudo upper blepharoplasty is effected, which can be left in place for extended periods of time, thus avoiding surgery. The adhesive strip has a backing and adhesive such as to make the strip very thin, very soft and pliable, strong, tear resistant, easily conformed to body contours, non-irritating and water resistant.
