EYE TREATMENTS
The eye contour tends to age faster than the general skin of the face and for this reason it is good to give this area due attention.
Eye treatments are separated into treatment categories’ dependant on the issue. Most people suffer from wrinkled crepey skin, eyebags or dropping brow. There are targeted approach to these treatments but often a multi targeted treatment gives best results. There are also new products being released all the time so please see the generic 'mesotherapy' section for this.
WRINKLED CREPEY SKIN
Vitaran i
Vitaran i is an innovative tissue stimulator based on polynucleotides. Polynucleotides (PN) are small fragments of DNA and RNA nucleic acids, of natural origin. PN repair skin at a cellular level correcting and improving cell replication. Using the action of PN, this scientifically proven method of skin bio-stimulation stimulates the skin to rebuild in a three-way mechanism of action: Lifting, Antioxidation, Hydration. Benefits of Vitaran also include skin revitalisation, improved elastin, crepiness and wrinkles. It is recommended to carry out 3-4 treatments at an interval of 15-30 days

SUMMARY
Plasma Fibroblast
Plasma fibroblast (or "plasma pen") is a non-surgical treatment for hooded eyes that uses an electric arc to vaporize excess eyelid skin. This controlled micro-injury triggers collagen production and causes the skin to instantly shrink and tighten. It is a popular alternative to surgical blepharoplasty but requires about 7 to 10 days of downtime for scabs to heal. This process instantly retracts the tissue, resulting in a lifted and more open-eyed appearance.
Derma Eye 2.0
Derma Eye contains a special composition and combination of biomimetic peptides such as Acetyl Hexapeptide-30, amino acids and natural extracts such as Artichoke Extract and Aescin, the complete cocktail Derma-Eye treatment against bags under eyes, giving more brightness to the eyes. Derma Eye has draining and anti-puffiness effects whilst improving the microcirculation of the periocular area, particularly useful for anyone who suffers from excess water retention around the eyes and visually improves the appearance of eye bags.
EYEBAGS / FLUID RETENTION
DROOPING EYELIDS
Botox (Botulinum Toxin)
Upper eyelid skin sagging or redundancy produces what people call “hooded eyes.” The condition is common, with mild to moderate cases creating merely cosmetic concerns. Botox is a safe, nonsurgical option that works best on mild to moderate eye hooding. In a Botox brow lift, your practitioner gives the eyebrows and eyelids a nonsurgical lift by relaxing the upper facial muscles and obital rim in strategic areas. There are several depressor muscles in the upper face that can cause the brows to droop placing botox in these specific areas can cause the brows to raise instead of depressed.
