Eyes by Thermage TM
An innovative treatment without massive surgery

Eyelid aging
is such an issue today that
blepharoplasty is one of the top three cosmetic
procedures performed every year. That's a pretty
significant percentage of people who go 'under the knife'
to
reduce the effects of aging or simply the effects of
genetics. Unfortunately, sometimes the results are unkind.
We have all seen people who have obviously had an
"eye-job." The Thermage eye tightening procedure avoids
the risk of an over-done surgical appearance.
Nissan Pilest,
Dermatologist and Medical Director of Total Dermatology in
Irvine, CA, provides Eyes by Thermage procedure. It uses
the same successful radio-frequency technology that is
used on the face and body to tighten and induce
collagen, but it has been "finessed" to safely and
gently treat delicate eyelid tissue. The treatment
actually affects the entire eye area, not just the
eyelids. It goes beyond firming loose eyelid skin to
reduce hooding,
under-eye bags, and even
minimizes crow's feet.

Immediately
following the treatment, patients see the first of
what is a
continuing
improvement. Over the following 4 to 6 months,
this improvement continues as new collagen further
smoothes and tightens the eye area.
Dr.
Pilest assures, "Having an option to perk up
heavy-lidded eyes and shrink under-eye bags
without sutures, swelling, bruising or time off
from work is of enormous benefit to busy
professionals. There are no tell-tale signs that
you've done anything. As with the rest of the
Thermage applications, results improve over time.
No one will be whispering behind your back about
your 'secret surgery' nor will you need to hide
out for weeks as is typically
required with invasive surgery."
Granted, the
results are certainly more subtle, but that's the beauty
of it. You'll just look naturally more awake, younger and
vibrant. Pair it with
Thermage for facial laxity and
Fraxel
for sun damage and you'll get lift and refinishing without
any surgery. That said, it won't take the place of
traditional surgery if you have extreme situations. But
most 35 to 60 year-olds can expect to enjoy definite
improvement.
