under eye bags or hollowing
The area under our eyes has very thin skin and typically no fat which allows the muscle underneath to make the skin appear darker or purplish. This often results in a “tired” or aged appearance. In some cases, fat under the eyes builds up over time and we get undereye “bags”. Various treatment options are available including Exilis Radiofrequency skin tightening, RF microneedling, PRFM injections, and/or dermal filler.
It’s important to know where the deficit is that causes shadowing under the eyes in order to correct it properly. Sometimes the dark shadows are caused by hollowing under the eyes due to loss of fat and thinning of skin. But other times, the shadow is caused by increased fat under the eye creating “bags” with the transition below where there is sagging of ligaments and loss of fat in the mid cheek. It may be necessary to correct the mid cheek volume loss to create support under the eyes. Meet with the providers at Rejuve Medspa for a complete assessment and to learn about the options best for you.
exilis nonsurgical eyelift
EXILIS combines Radiofrequency and Ultrasound to build collagen and tighten skin. It is a great nonsurgical, comfortable treatment for undereye bags with no downtime. The treatment feels like a warm massage. Typically 4 sessions spaced 7-10 days apart are recommended.
NATURAL therapy
Your own blood has the the incredible power to recruit growth factors that stimulate collagen formation. Selphyl creates a matrix (PRFM), gel-like substance that lasts for 7 days to help recruit your own body’s growth factors to help stimulate collagen production. This results in healthier, thicker skin, reduced fine lines and wrinkles. May require 2-3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. Full results won’t be seen until about 6 months after treatment because it takes time for your body to build collagen and elastin.
Genius, PRFM + HEALITE
Combination treatments can be helpful to address multiple concerns and speed results. This lovely patient received Genius RF Microneedling, PRFM, followed by HEALITE on the same day. 3 weeks later, we can already see skin tightening, plumping of the skin, reduced shadowing, improved skin texture and tone. This is expected to continue to improve over the next 6 months.
