Modern medicine: Rejuvenate eyelids without surgery

“The eyes are the windows to the soul” is a phrase that we have heard a thousand times and it has some truth since the gaze is the center of our expression. We show whether we are sad, scared or happy through our eyes. That is why it is so important to give them the time they deserve so that they are healthy and reflect what we feel. Beyond aesthetics, bags can create a sad or tired appearance that does not match the way we feel and that is why aging in the eyelid area usually bothers us so much.

Luckily there is a solution, and it is not always necessary to undergo surgery.

Although eyelid surgery is the treatment par excellence to rejuvenate your eyes, more and more people are looking for aesthetic treatments that do not involve a scalpel, especially when it comes to the eye region.

Science has been making great progress in this direction, and today we can offer alternatives with very good results.

The treatment that generates the greatest changes in skin rejuvenation is the CO2 laser. This is an outpatient procedure that generates inflammation for 3 to 5 days and requires strict sun care. The results can be seen from the third week and last approximately one year.

Similar treatments, although gentler and requiring less aftercare, may be fractional radiofrequency or the application of biostimulant substances. All of these techniques stimulate our own skin cells to produce collagen and tighten.

The treatment of dark circles with hyaluronic acid is also widely used, an outpatient procedure in which the dark circle groove is filled and the skin is also hydrated.

Of course, the technique par excellence to reduce periocular wrinkles and other regions of the face is botulinum toxin, a widely used tool that we cannot fail to mention.

These are some of the alternatives that exist to rejuvenate without surgery. Choosing one over another or combining several depends on the anatomy and intentions of each patient. The important thing is to consult with a qualified professional who uses safe products and has the necessary knowledge.

Regarding the periocular area, we cannot conceive of the eyelids without thinking about their primary function in protecting the eye. Within ophthalmology there is a specialty that is exclusively responsible for the eyelids, both the aesthetic and functional and restorative parts; this specialty is called Oculoplasty.

If you are looking to rejuvenate your look without surgery, there are options for you and consulting with a specialist ophthalmologist can make a difference.
