Drooping Eyelids
Over time, factors such as aging, genetics, and environmental stressors can contribute to the gradual sagging and drooping of both the upper and lower eyelids. The skin here is significantly thinner, hence it is more prone to damage and stress. These concerns can diminish the youthful allure that frames your gaze.
Factors Leading to Eyelid Ageing:
01
The Ageing Process
As time passes, the skin loses its elasticity and firmness, leading to a natural aging process. The delicate skin around the eyes is particularly susceptible to these changes, resulting in the formation of wrinkles, fine lines, and a gradual descent of the eyelids. Collagen and elastin, crucial proteins responsible for skin elasticity, begin to diminish, leaving the eyelids prone to sagging.
02
Genetics
Your genetic makeup plays a pivotal role in determining how your facial features age. If your family history includes a predisposition to eyelid drooping or excessive skin laxity, you may find yourself facing similar concerns.
03
Environmental Factors
External factors such as prolonged sun exposure, pollution, and lifestyle choices can expedite the aging process. UV rays and environmental pollutants contribute to collagen breakdown and skin damage, exacerbating the appearance of drooping eyelids.
04
Muscular Atrophy
The muscles supporting the eyelids can weaken over time, diminishing their ability to provide adequate support. This weakening can result in the gradual descent of both upper and lower eyelids, creating a tired or aged appearance.
Eye Treatment
We offer a personalised eye treatment regime, designed to lift, firm and resurface both the upper and lower eyelid, along with the surrounding areas. We combine advanced HIFU technology with radiofrequency microneedling or laser skin resurfacing. This promotes collagen and elastin production in the skin, healing and epidermal resurfacing, resulting in a lift, tightening and smoother skin.
