EYE
Cosmetic Options
General information — it’s intended to help you think of questions before your consultation or revisit details afterward
Eye Normal Aging process
- Bone volume decreases
- Supporting structures (fascia, ligaments) prolapses down
- Muscles which pull down overactivated
- Fat redistributed – less in upper face, more in lower face
Muscles of face are working in coordination with each other, moving fat pads into certain directions, and muscles are overlapping each other. Therefore it is important to tailor individual plan for each person.
*Eye area is very gentle and dangerous therefore rejuvenation is a slow process, step by step, although some results will be seen after each treatment. Similar like you going to gym, we same slow re-stretch and re-shape your eye area with non-surgical procedures. More advanced situation and age – longer it will take.
If underlying cause of cosmetic concerns is overactive muscles – muscle relaxant anti-wrinkle cosmetic injections
This case on the right is an example. By targetly relaxing muslces pulling down and folding skin, more lifted upper eyelid, eyebrows, effect of larger eyes and less wrinkles can be achieved in suitable cases. At VISTA Clinic Australia Melbourne cosmetic doctors use very fine needles to minimize pain and bruising.
Wrinkles relaxation and eyelid lift effect lasts from 2 to 7 months (depends on how fast nerves regeneration rate of a person. Intense sunbath, exercises, sweating, vitamins group B – all contribute into shorter action of muscle relaxant injections.
Please, consult with an experienced cosmetic doctor free of charge about costs, types of cosmetic injections and alternative treatments.
If volume deficiency – special type of filler can be used
Dermal fillers are based on a natural moisturising ingredient, hyaluronic acid, which all our body tissues contain. Hyaluronic acid is stabilized by a special cross-linking process of it’s molecules to ensure that filler lasts longer.
Around eye area, hyaluronic acid fillers are used to fill in eye wrinkles, lift up eyebrows, provide support for eyelids, fill in upper eyelids hollow areas, tear troughts.
Cosmetic injections around eyes are considered advanced level of filler injections and usual fillers, designed for more thick areas, are not suitable for eyes.
Individual consult is important to address possible contributing lack of bone support around the area, and what type of anatomy, lympatic drainage, skin quality and other contributing factors to ensure we unitilise safer options 1st.
Most common side effect is bruising (around every 5th patient, as per our clinic audit), which can be masked by concealer make up. There are possible more serious complications, which VISTA Clinic Australia cosmetic doctor in Melbourne will discus with you during the counsult.
In this case on the left, skin quality (tightening, lightening) was combined with under eye filler, same day photos.
Skin Quality Improvement around eyes – in this case, Peel + Biorevitalisation
Eyelid skin is thin and getting thinner, less elastic, loose and wrinkles with age. Less ingredients are delivered via micro circulation blood vessels to “build” stronger eyelids skin. Biorevitalisation (or skin booster) is delivery of natural moisturiser in the most organic form on non- crosslinked hyaluronic acid via multiple injections, creating a depo of “bricks”, from which your eyelid skin will be built. Fine cosmetic injections are perceived by your body as trauma and growth factors stimulate regeneration of eyelid skin. The active prescription only medications are injected inside the skin, to the most metabolically active layer.
VISTA Clinic Australia cosmetic doctor, Dr Larissa Miller, is a trainer and presenter for biorevitalisation, but the procedure is a spectrum and can be both medical (if deep injections) and not medical.
Biorevitalisation effects goals are more glowing, lighter and rejuvenated skin appearence. In reasearch, 3 procedures were recommended, but usuallt results afer 1st and plan is determined individually.
