Which laser is more effective in treating wrinkles around the eyes and why is plasma therapy good? We explain why peptide bioreparative and chemical peels are effective in combating skin wrinkles in the periorbital zone.
laser therapy
The procedure is suitable for patients of all ages. Laser therapy has a strong stimulating effect at the cellular level, which leads to a reduction in macro- and micro-relief. The result is a visual reduction in wrinkle depth. The number of procedures is determined by the cosmetologist depending on the severity of the problem. The course of treatment is from 1 to 3 sessions (with a frequency of 1 time per month).
Two lasers are most commonly used to correct wrinkles in the periorbital region: erbium and CO2. The laser beam acts on the skin, causing active cell regeneration. In general, laser therapy is aimed at improving skin quality and fighting wrinkles. Before laser rejuvenation, your doctor may recommend preparatory procedures: for example, plasma therapy or biorevitalization with hyaluronic acid-based preparations.
During the procedure, the doctor must apply anesthesia to the skin. After laser therapy, you should not go to the bathroom and sauna for about two weeks, apply peels and treatments with alcohol and retinol in the composition, be sure to use products with SPF (the bigger the better).
Contraindications for laser rejuvenation are the same as for other physiotherapeutic procedures: worsening of chronic skin diseases, acute somatic conditions, pregnancy, oncological diseases.
Chemical peeling
For the correction of wrinkles in the periorbital region, we recommend chemical TCA peeling using a 20% (or more) solution of trichloroacetic acid. This is a medium peel that can be done 1-2 times at any time of the year.
The procedure takes about 30 minutes. In this process, the doctor applies a solution of trichloroacetic acid in layers (the number of layers depends on the thickness of the skin).
Immediately after peeling, hyperemia (increased blood flow) appears on the skin, after 1-2 days the place of impact takes on a bronze hue, and 3-4 days peeling of the microplate appears. It is very important to follow all the doctor's recommendations after the procedure. The specialist must give the patient a protocol of the rehabilitation period.
The result of TCA peeling is the correction of small wrinkles around the eyes. Such peeling is also good for reducing wrinkles on the forehead, cheeks, around the lips and in general for improving the condition of the skin: it becomes smooth and even. Important: after peeling, do not wash the affected areas with water for one day, use regenerating creams and thermal water. During rehabilitation, be sure to use products with SPF (from 30 and more).
The procedure has contraindications: herpes, inflammatory processes, deep pigmentation, allergies, pregnancy, breastfeeding, malignant tumors.
Plasma therapy
Plasmagel is produced by heating the patient's plasma in a special centrifuge and injecting. The procedure is good for restoring volume and correcting wrinkles on the skin.
Plasma is injected using an atraumatic cannula, which completely eliminates the risk of hematoma. The advantage of plasma therapy is fast rehabilitation compared to other procedures. You may feel redness, which will disappear after a few hours.
With Plasmogel therapy, the effect intensifies, so we advise you to do it on a course - 3 procedures once a month and after six months - another session. The result will be noticeable: firm, elastic skin and visibly reduced wrinkles around the eyes.
Fillers
Another common injection procedure is to correct wrinkles around the eyes. Fillers are preparations based on hyaluronic acid, which help to compensate for the lack of subcutaneous fat. If you need to solve the problem of wrinkles in the periorbital area with the help of fillers, the specialist will use contouring preparations. During the procedure, anesthesia is not needed in most cases, because the preparations already contain a local anesthetic. If there is no anesthetic in the composition of the medicine, the cosmetologist applies anesthesia.
You must repeat the procedure according to the doctor's testimony - the frequency depends on the degree of biodegradation of the filler itself. When you work with a fixed space, it is likely that the next visit to the doctor is waiting for you only after 2-3 years.
If you have an inflammatory process or a viral disease just before the procedure, it is better to delay the introduction of fillers. Also, be sure to talk to your doctor about the risk of an allergic reaction to the drug's components.
Peptide bioreparant injections
This is an injectable drug used to correct the eyelid area and the area around the eyes. The basis of the drug is a DRMC complex of hyaluronic acid and trace elements that moisturize and tighten the skin.
For a noticeable result, we recommend that you take a course of 3 procedures at intervals of 14 days. Then the effect can be maintained every six months. One procedure does not last more than 20 minutes, taking into account the preliminary treatment of the area around the eyes with anesthetic and antiseptic.
