EYELID LIFT USING ERBIUM LASER.

Eyelid surgery with the Erbium laser is a gentle and precise method to tighten and visibly rejuvenate the skin in the eye area. Without any surgical intervention, the Erbium laser ensures a fresher and more radiant appearance.

ADVANTAGES.

Eyelid surgery with the erbium laser offers numerous advantages for those who want a gentle but effective skin tightening procedure. Since the procedure is minimally invasive, the skin is only treated superficially, which significantly reduces the risk of side effects. The treatment itself is almost painless, since the erbium laser only removes the top layers of skin without putting any strain on the surrounding tissue. Another major advantage is the natural stimulation of collagen production, which ensures lasting tightening and smoothing of the skin.

TREATMENT PROCESS.

The treatment process for an eyelid lift with the erbium laser begins with a detailed consultation in which the doctor discusses the condition of the skin and the patient's individual goals. Before treatment, the skin will be cleansed and a local anesthetic may be applied to numb the area.

During the procedure, the erbium laser is precisely applied to the skin of the eyelids. The laser specifically removes old, damaged skin cells and stimulates collagen production, tightening and rejuvenating the skin. The treatment usually only takes around 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the extent of the procedure.

After treatment, the eyelids are lightly cooled to minimize swelling and redness. The patient can usually go home the same day, but should bring someone with them to accompany them.

AFTERCARE.

After an erbium laser eyelid lift, redness, swelling, and mild pain may occur, which usually resolves within 48 to 72 hours. Hematomas and crusting are also common and usually resolve within one to two weeks. You may also experience temporary dryness or irritation in your eyes.

The downtime is usually one to two weeks, during which physical exertion and direct sunlight should be avoided. Complete healing and the final result are usually visible after 4 to 6 weeks.

In the first few days, it is advisable to avoid strong sunlight and to protect the eye area with a high sun protection factor (at least SPF 50) in order to protect the sensitive, regenerating skin. In addition, make-up or other cosmetic products should be avoided in the treated area for about a week to avoid irritation. Gentle, moisturizing care supports the healing process and ensures that the skin remains soft and supple.
