The Way back to an Alert and Youthful Look

The most efficient methods to effectively correct drooping eyelids in adherence with individual characteristics. An excess of skin on the upper eyelid can be the cause of so-called drooping eyelids which always make one look tired and worn out or even unfriendly. If the underlying musculature slackens in the course of skin aging, the drooping eyelids become more pronounced or may then even start to develop. Several methods are now available to correct this. In the case of slightly drooping eyelids, a new, non-invasive procedure with atmospheric plasma, which does not require the use of a scalpel, can be applied. The energy is transferred to the skin surface by the device in the form of a plasma beam, creating micro-wounds on the skin. These stimulate the wound healing process, resulting in a visible tightening of the skin. Usually only one outpatient treatment is necessary – the result can already be seen after seven to ten days. During this time, however, one must expect the treated area to become incrusted. If the skin of the upper eyelid is more slack, however, only the scalpel can help. The Darmstadt Rosenpark Klinik’s Dr. Stefan Kalthoff explains how a classic eyelid lift works. What causes drooping eyelids? Drooping eyelids are often inherent in the patient’s own genes. In addition, skin elasticity decreases with age. People who have always had drooping eyelids find that they are no longer able to see everything. The drooping upper eyelid literally robs them of their sight and severely restricts their field of vision. At what age does it usually begin? The process of skin aging is genetically programmed and takes place in the dermis, the thick layer of living tissue below the epidermis. This skin layer consists of connective tissue cells and connective tissue fibres such as collagen and elastin which give the skin its elasticity and resilience. With increasing age, the skin tissue loses collagen and elastin. The skin becomes thinner, water and fat content decrease. Most people first show signs of skin ageing from around the age of 35. Due to the loss of elasticity, genetically created drooping eyelids become even more pronounced. This affects both women and men. What is done during the procedure? During upper eyelid lifting, excess skin is reduced and any sagging muscles and protruding fatty tissue are removed. The fine eyelid skin is then closed with the thinnest suture material. This creates only a very fine scar in the crease of the eyelid.… weiterlesen
