As we age, the muscles beneath our eye lose 3-8% of their tone every decade, leading to sagging eyelids. Sagging eyelids often lead to inefficient blinking by preventing the lids from fully closing. This creates gaps that affect hydration to the eye. 60% of people who suffer from dry eyes also suffer from impaired lid closure. 2.2x individuals with loose and saggy lids are more than twice as likely to develop eyelid-related issues.
Why is lid function important?
When the muscle tissues around the eye lose mass and tone, it leads the eyelids to lose muscular support. Blinking mechanics become impaired, which results in a decrease in tear film stability, dry eyes and other conditions may develop.
What is OptiLIFT?
- Powered by Lumenis’ proprietary non-invasive technology, OptiLIFT tones and stimulates the muscles under the eye to address lower eyelid function and impaired blinking.
- The treatment uses electrical pulses to trigger nerve signals, activate facial muscles and induce contractions.
- It tightens the periorbital area by targeting the natural sagging that comes with aging
- It’s clinically proven to enhance blinking efficiency by 70%
- Improvement in tear breakup time
- Enhanced meibomian gland function, which improves the signs of Dry Eye Syndrome
- 4 Sessions with 1 week between each delivers impressive and visible outcomes
- 14 minutes per session
- Gentle, non-invasive approach results in a lifted appearance
- No downtime
