Lunchtime Eye lift

A non-surgical alternative to eye lid surgery for eye bags & puffy eyes

Bags, puffiness, crêpey skin or dark shadowing under the eyes is a common complaint among many ladies and men as they age. This often makes them look tired and worn out. Eyelid or eye surgery called blepharoplasty is a surgical option to correct this aesthetic problem. For many who are afraid of surgery in this area there may be an effective nonsurgical option to reduce the appearance of the bags, puffiness & lax skin under their eyes.

The appearance of the eye bags or puffy eyes is due to the sunken trough under the 'bags' Some of the powerful non surgical options offered by the doctors at Dermedica to treat this condition include:

• Thermage - to tighten the loose skin under the eye region
• Dermal fillers - an effective non surgical option to fill in the 'valley' or trough to decrease or smooth out the appearance of the eye bags
• Wrinkle relaxer to relax the small muscles in this region that often bunch up when you smile giving you that 'puffy' look in the eye region.

There are some people who are not suitable for some of these treatments. The experienced cosmetic doctor at Dermedica will be able to advise you whether you are suitable & if not then we may refer you to a surgeon who specialises in this area if you wish to explore those options.

If you are considering cosmetic surgery but feel that you should explore the non surgical options first, please contact the medical staff at Dermedica on 08 9205 1995 or email us.
