Non-Surgical Blepharoplasty
What Is Non-Surgical Blepharoplasty?
The delicate skin around the eyes is one of the first areas to show the signs of aging. As the years pass, fine lines and wrinkles appear in this region. The veins beneath the eyelid skin become more visible. The brows and outer corners of the eyes begin to droop. Non-surgical blepharoplasty is one of the options patients ask about when they want to refresh the eye area.
The most effective way to reverse these changes is blepharoplasty, also called eyelid surgery. Some patients are wary of going under the knife, so they look for a non-invasive alternative. In most cases, this phrase refers to the laser-based eyelid treatment. This method is also more affordable than the surgical blepharoplasty cost.
What is laser blepharoplasty?
The laser-based eyelid lift is a rejuvenation and tightening of the eyelid skin. In essence, it is a smoothing of the upper and lower eyelid skin. Human skin is made of proteins. Any protein contracts when exposed to heat. We have all seen how the skin of a piece of chicken tightens when it is heated.
Heating the skin alone is not enough, however. It also has to be perforated so the surface area shrinks and the rejuvenation and repair process can begin. This is called fractional laser resurfacing. A focused beam of light penetrates the skin and essentially burns tiny micro-channels. Where the laser hits, the tissue and interstitial fluid vaporize, producing a lifting and skin-tightening effect.
It also triggers the body's natural regeneration processes. This high-temperature laser contact lets us reduce the original upper-eyelid skin area and lessen its drooping. When there is already too much excess skin, the laser is too weak to do the job. In that case, the skin must be trimmed away surgically.
How the Procedure Is Performed
How is the laser eyelid treatment performed?
Modern aesthetic medicine most often uses a fractional contact technique for rejuvenation procedures. During the treatment, the laser beam moves point by point across the skin rather than in a single continuous line. Microscopic holes are created, leaving a fine white dot pattern visible on the skin. These dots are the remains of vaporized skin proteins: collagen and elastin.
Heat makes the skin contract. At the contact points, the body starts regenerating fresh skin structures. In effect, brand-new young skin rebuilt with collagen and elastin takes its place.
Surgical vs. Laser Blepharoplasty
Is surgical or laser blepharoplasty the better choice?
As an experienced doctor and plastic surgeon, I can tell you something important. Laser blepharoplasty is never as effective or as long-lasting as a surgical blepharoplasty. Patients who want a professional result turn to plastic surgery, and to nothing else.
A patient who wants a professional outcome should see a plastic surgeon who has mastered the craft. That surgeon should also have years of experience behind them.
