Treatments for Eye Imperfections
In the past, surgical intervention was considered to be the only way to correct cosmetic conditions of the eye, and restore a youthful look to the area. Today’s advances in aesthetic technologies provide methods of correcting unwanted conditions in this area through lower cost, non-surgical methods.
Topical Formulas
Almost every skincare line has an eye cream in its midst! Designed to reduce conditions of the aging eye, there are some preparations that target specific imperfections more than others. The over all desired effect is to produce some tightening of the skin underneath the eye, and provide hydration to the area. To some degree under eye puffiness and dark circles may be reduced, and the skin tone can become more even.
Launched as the next generation of skin tightening, this non-surgical treatment is especially well suited to correct imperfections such as fine lines underneath the eyes. In addition it also creates a tightening and lifting of the entire eye area.
By far the most effective, safe process of restoring a younger, more refreshed look to the eye, this procedure can produce remarkable improvement by tightening and lifting the skin around and on the eyelid area. This is a non-surgical treatment that involves no downtime.
The Use of Injectable Fillers
Small amounts of Restylane® or Juvéderm® can be injected into the hollow area beneath the eye which is also called the tear trough. The restoration of volume removes the appearance of darkness, or a shadow beneath the eye. Botox® is commonly used to remove peripheral imperfections in the eye area such as crow’s feet. It can also serve to lift the eyebrows and produce an opening of the eyes when used by a skilled physician injector.
Latisse® by Allergan
