So, what are the options for treating this delicate periorbital area? Yes, a surgical eyelift –  blepharoplasty surgery – can reshape the eyelids and reduce fine lines, wrinkles and puffiness but, for those brave enough to go under the knife and be able to afford it, there are consequences to consider. Cosmetic eye surgery might result in scars with possible side effects including swelling and bruising around the eyes that can take weeks to settle down. Patients also need to take up to two weeks off work post-surgery.

Fortunately, there is a simple and safe alternative: the ENDYEyelift with 3DEEP® RF technology. The ENDYMED non-surgical eyelift offers superior results in reducing under-eye bags, smoothing and tightening skin, and lifting the upper eyelid for a more open eye. It combines radiofrequency and fractional radiofrequency to stimulate collagen production. Radiofrequency delivers energy to the skin to stimulate natural wound healing and collagen production for an instant lift, while microneedle dermal remodeling with fractional radiofrequency is used to resurface skin.

The periorbital area is not only delicate but also difficult to reach – not with ENDYMED”s iFine handpiece, however. iFine is specifically designed to treat the fine lines, wrinkles and delicate areas around the eyes for optimum results.

3DEEP® RF technology ensures that dermal heating is volumetric, focused and homogeneous for a minimally invasive treatment without side-effects – or downtime. There is no need “to do that period of social isolation that is usually required with a traditional blepharoplasty,” as Dr. Stefano Toschi, Medical Director at the Angelo Hospital, Italy, remarks,

Dr. Toschi follows a combination protocol for periorbital rejuvenation using Intensif (advanced RF microneedle technology) (1.5mm, 80msec, 11W ) and FSR (fractional skin resurfacing) (20msec, 1-2W) in the same session. Three to four sessions are required, each conducted one month apart, with a topical anesthetic used. Thermal water and skin emulsion are applied immediately afterwards, with Seaprose tablets prescribed and sunscreen advised.

Treatment can be completely customized to suit the patient’s needs and skin impedance and is easily delegated to aestheticians. Dr. Sach Mohan, owner of Revere Clinics in the UK, has found patient feedback to be “fantastic” and advocates, “The key thing about the ENDYEyelift treatment protocol is being able to tighten the elasticity of skin of any color with virtually no downtime or risk. A course of treatment gives undeniable results that last years.”
