Is the nonsurgical eye lift procedure painful?

The actual treatment takes no more than 15-20 minutes, and it is generally a painful but well tolerated procedure. We will numb the areas being treated to minimise any discomfort. A local anaesthetic cream is given 30 minutes before to treatment to numb the eyelid. Some patients experience a minor tingling/burning sensation, although it is normally well tolerated with pain relievers and numbing lotion.

How many sessions are required for nonsurgical eye lift treatment?

First and foremost, you will have a Plexr - plasma pen consultation with one of our doctors who specialises in this treatment. This allows us to assess your appropriateness for therapy while also providing you with an opportunity to ask questions and discuss your therapeutic goals. You will be in clinic for approximately one hour on the day of your treatment. You will then be given aftercare instructions and scheduled for your next treatment in 4-6 weeks should you require it.

Where Can I Have Hooded Eye Treatment?

Plexr treatment is available at Elite Aesthetics in Greenhithe, Kent. Just 20 minutes from St Pancras Station.

Why is Plexr So Popular?

According to recent data, people no longer want to go under the knife because of the perceived risk of anaesthesia, the worry of permanent after effects from surgery, and the prolonged downtime. With non-surgical alternatives now available and producing good results, demand for surgical procedures has decreased in the UK over the previous decade, while demand for non-surgical therapies has surged considerably.

Can Plexr Treat Other Areas of the Body?

This same therapy can be used to reduce upper lip lines (smokers lines), deep lines elsewhere on the face, scars (acne scars and white surgical scars), and skin tags. It can also be used to treat stretch marks on the body in general.

How Long do Non Surgical Eye Lift Results Last?

When used to treat hooded eyes or extra skin around the face, the results are permanent once the excess skin has been removed (just as they would be with surgery); nevertheless, as a natural consequence of getting older and the passage of time, you will develop more lax skin over time (usually after 5 years). This is a natural process associated with becoming older and has the same effect as surgically removing the skin (blepharoplasty). In the event that additional sagging skin reappears over time, you need to undergo additional plasma IQ treatments. When applied to scars or lines on the lip, the benefits are long-lasting.

Hooded Eye Lid Treatment — Before and After Hooded Eyelid Treatment

Hooded Eyelids, What Are They?

‘Hooded eyelids’ are a frequent facial feature characterised by the presence of extra skin on one or both eyes, just under the brows. Extra skin can be seen folding downwards from the brow bone to the lash line. As a result, the eyes appear smaller than usual. Some patients may also have difficulty applying makeup, such as eye shadow. The form of your eyes and eyelids, like attached earlobes or hair colour, is one of the numerous distinguishable inherited facial traits. With growing age, the condition becomes more noticeable.

What Causes Hooded Eyelids?

Age – As we become older, our skin loses elasticity and becomes more slack, resulting in the appearance of excess skin on the eyelid. Our brow position tends to decline as we age, which might result in hooded eyes or make existing hooded eyes appear more prominent.

Hooded eyes or the potential to develop hooded eyes are a genetic trait; if one or both parents have hooded eyes, you are more likely to develop this attribute.

Medical Causes – Incorrectly administered Botox injections can cause the eye brow to droop and produce the appearance of hooded eyes. In rare situations, medical disorders can provide the appearance of hooded eyes; this is due to a droopy eyelid, known as ptosis, and should be investigated by your doctor.

How To Fix Hooded Eyelids

You can choose between surgical (cutting away excess skin on the lid – blethoplasty) and nonsurgical treatment, plasma pen to burn away excess skin on the lid. Yes, I did say burn away, but don’t worry, it’s not as painfull as it sounds as we’re only touching the very top most layers of your skin.

Elite Aesthetics specialises in non-surgical treatments that provides Plexr (medical plasma pen treatment), which is an effective therapy for hooded eyes. It reduces and tightens upper eyelid skin, providing a non-surgical eye lift without the need for hooded eye surgery.

Hi, Alex here,Just had my Lichen treatment today with Dr Shirin,The whole team at elite are very friendly, comforting and understanding, and did everything they could to give me a wonderful and welcoming experience.

They are also super responsive on the phone and email, so I know they care about thier patients, and I'm very well taken care of, (as with other clinics I have been to, its often difficult to get them to respond to questions), but this clinic is the most responsive I have ever seen!This is a beautiful and wonderful place and I highly recommend it, and I will be recommending it to all my friends as well.

Yesterday I had a 'body sculpt' session, to help lymphatic drainage. I was zipped into a suit up to my waist. This massaged and lightly squeezed my feet, ankles, calves, thighs and abdomen. I was breathing oxygen rich air via nasal tubes. It was very relaxing and I slept really well last night. Thank you Elite Aesthetics.
