Until now, the only truly effective way to correct skin laxity in the eyelid area has been with surgery in the form of an eyelid lift or blepharoplasty. However, where possible, patients prefer to avoid a surgical procedure with its potential complications and lengthy recovery period. Now, Maisam Fazel can offer a non-surgical solution to the blepharoplasty, known as the Plasma Eyelid Rejuvenation.
Plasma Eyelid Rejuvenation corrects:
Maisam Fazel’s Plasma Eyelid Rejuvenation technique is performed in clinic with topical anaesthetic cream. The hand held plasma pen sublimates the excess skin to produce an instant lifting effect, while at the same time stimulating collagen and elastin production, so there is a further rejuvenation and tightening of the skin over the following weeks and months.
Unlike a surgical blepharoplasty, there are no incisions, resulting minimal downtime after a Plasma Eyelid Rejuvenation. Patients can return home immediately after treatment.
The procedure needs to usually be performed twice 6 weeks apart to provide a lasting result. Thereafter a maintenance treatment needs to be performed every 2 years.
Patients experience some redness and swelling around the upper eyelids, but this usually only lasts a few days. A carbon crust will immediately form over the area treated. This crust should not be touched until it falls off (usually within 10 days). During this period the crust can be easily camouflaged with a mineral make-up recommended by Maisam Fazel. Thereafter, the area needs to be protected with SP50 sunblock for 6 weeks.
For men and women that are experiencing mild to moderate sagging of the skin of the eyelids, the Plasma Eyelid Rejuvenation can be an excellent alternative to the surgical blepharoplasty. If patients have a significant degree of skin laxity or bulging fat pads under the eyes, then a lower or upper eyelid surgical lift may be required.
Most people see a lifting and tightening of the skin almost immediately after treatment, although the results continue to improve over the next few weeks as collagen and elastin production is stimulated. A further treatment is required after 6 weeks to obtain lasting results.
Topical anaesthetic cream is applied to the eyelids about 30 minutes before the procedure to numb the area, rendering the procedure comfortable. Occasionally patients may request a stronger local anaesthetic injection.
The results are permanent but, as with a surgical procedure, it is not possible to stop the ageing process entirely. Maintenance treatment is recommended every 2 years, and Maisam Fazel can recommend other skin rejuvenation treatments to help promote optimal skin health.
