They say getting older makes you wiser, but the aging process also takes its toll on your body, especially your eyes. Drooping skin and wrinkles around your eyes are one of the first signs of aging. Our dermatologist offers a few options when it comes to correcting lines and sagging skin in the eye area including the Madonna Eyelift and Eyelid Surgery.
The Madonna Lift
The Madonna Lift is another name for an eyelift and is a non-surgical procedure, which uses laser treatments to rejuvenate your skin and promote the production of new collagen. Dr. Katz uses a fractional laser beam on your skin’s surface in order to get rid of damaged tissue and fibers and stimulate the growth of new ones. This laser eyelift can safely eliminate wrinkles around your eyes and tighten the skin on your eyelids.
To make sure you get the best results possible, we recommend between three and five laser eyelift sessions at our office in Manhattan. Your treatments will be separated by 2-3 weeks to allow your skin to produce newer, firmer skin tissue.
The Madonna Lift can treat:
- Crow’s feet
- Circles under your eyes
- Sagging brows
- Loose eyelid skin
However, an eyelift is unable to get rid of surplus fatty tissue in the eyelids and eye area. If you have excess fat pads in your eyelids or drooping eyelids are affecting your vision, eyelid surgery is most likely your best choice.
Eyelid Surgery
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a procedure used to reverse signs of aging and addresses many common problems including:
- Drooping eyelids
- Obstructed vision
- Puffy, fatty eyelids
- Hollows or dark circles beneath the eyes
The procedure can be performed on both eyelids at once, if necessary, and involves removing fatty tissue and/or repositioning muscles within your eyelids. Eyelid surgery can produce great results and effectively gets rid of sagging skin to renew your appearance and restore your field of vision.
Additionally, other treatments can be used in conjunction with the Madonna Lift or eyelid surgery to fully refresh the appearance of the area around your eyes such as PRP skin rejuvenation for wrinkles, injectables, laser skin tightening and BOTOX® Cosmetic.
Now is the best time to rejuvenate your appearance, and make way for a “New You” in the New Year.
