Effects of ageing skin gradually creep up. You feel good but the mirror tells a different story! Women and men believe the body part that most reveals their age is the eye area, followed by hands and facial skin.
Surgical treatments such as blepharoplasty can tighten loose eyelid skin but like any surgery can have risk of complications such as scarring. Lower eyelid blepharoplasty is a tricky procedure, even in expert hands. In addition too much fat removal can give a ‘hollowed-out’ look.
Another revolutionary technique has been tear trough rejuvenation with Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers such as Restylane. New injection methods now allow us to achieve excellent results without any bruising or downtime. Results such as these are typically achieved and can be combined with use of the CO2 laser for overall improvement.
Fat injections are also making a comeback and fat is an excellent filler to provide volume even in eyebrows and temporal hollows. It is especially attractive for patients who are considering liposuction. Suctioned fat can be used to provide a volumetric lift to facial areas or for the whole face.
