Struggle with excess eyelid skin that makes you look older? Wish the skin around your eyes were tighter? Aventis in the Cayman Islands can make it happen with a simple, 45-minute procedure.
At Aventis, we offer several treatment solutions for sagging eyelids and can provide a tailored approach depending on the severity of your sagging and its underlying cause.
Common and popular eyelid tightening treatments:
The type of treatment you need will depend on the cause and severity of your excessive eyelid skin. In moderate to advanced cases, upper blepharoplasty is typically recommended as it delivers the most effective and long-lasting effects.
Patients who are suitable for eyelid tightening typically experience:
Surgery is often the most recommended option when there is a functional impact, such as vision obstruction, or when the excess skin is moderate to severe, where skin tightening or regenerative treatments won’t produce the expected results.
It’s usually the best choice for patients seeking a long-term correction, as results from surgeries such as upper eyelid blepharoplasties are typically permanent.
A consultation will determine your available options and the best route to achieve your goals. At Aventis, we offer free consultations to assess your excess eyelid skin and learn what’s possible and what isn’t in your case.
Results vary depending on the treatment chosen, but patients typically notice:
Results from surgery are long-lasting, while non-surgical treatments may require maintenance or more frequent sessions to see progression.
