Non-invasive Radio Frequency Treatment for Droopy Eyelids : Non-invasive radio frequency treatment stimulates the body’s collagen production by penetrating into the dermis in a high-density dot pattern. The procedure promotes a rapid healing response due to the presence of stem cells in the surrounding untreated areas, which will promote new collagen growth in the treated area. The procedure takes about 15 minutes.
Why Get an Eye Lift?
Excess skin and fat around the upper eyelid can add years to our appearance, look puffy, and even block our field of vision. As well as medical motivations, it’s also possible to improve the contour of the eyelid aesthetically by adding or removing fat from around the lower eyelid to correct sagging and improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
Double eyelid surgery is also available and is performed to enhance or create the appearance of a sharper upper eyelid crease. This procedure is popular among those looking to achieve a more ‘Westernised’ look. Good candidates for eye lifts are those in good health.
