For a long time, sagging skin on the upper eyelids could only be treated through a surgical procedure that required anesthesia and often a difficult post-operative recovery. This procedure is called an eyelid lift.
Aesthetic medicine offers a non-invasive solution to treat the eye contour area and proposes a treatment plan using fractional radio frequency to reduce the folds of the eyelid skin that appear due to age and the genetic heritage of each individual.
This treatment, called medical blepharoplasty, allows the patient to obtain smooth eyelids, and less wrinkled skin, creating a generally more open look and a less tired appearance–in just two sessions. The idea is to intervene locally and therefore specifically to tighten and smooth the skin in order to remove wrinkles on the upper eyelids. The results of this technique are visible from the first session but in general two to four sessions are required to obtain a more lasting result. The number of sessions depends mainly on the severity of the folds on the eyelid to be treated.
