Eyes reveal a lot about a person. In a recent survey in which more than one thousand people participated, both men and women agreed that eyes are the most important facial feature in a potential partner.
One of the most obvious signs of aging is wrinkling around the eyes. As the human body ages, the skin around the eyes starts to sag and eyebrows start to droop. Sun, stress, and pollution further enhance the aging process. It not only makes a person look old, but it also makes him or her look sad and tired. Eyes are the windows to the soul and if there are wrinkles and skin covering the eyes, it can get difficult for individuals to express themselves and look their best. The Madonna eyelift, created by Dr. Bruce Katz, is one of the greatest innovations of the decade in the world of laser skin resurfacing. It helps people achieve a younger and more youthful appearance without going through any kind of surgery.
The Madonna eyelift gets its name from Madonna, the celebrity. Many people wonder how the ageless pop star managed to get such a wide-eyed look without undergoing a traditional blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery. The Madonna eyelid lift utilizes a fractional laser that reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and lifts the eyebrow to give a youthful look to the eye. This tool has been used to perform a variety of functions, including skin resurfacing and the treatment of acne scars. Now it can give men and women a younger look by focusing on the eyelids and the rest of the eye area.
During the skin resurfacing procedure, the fractional laser beam is broken into microscopic columns of light, which strike the surface of the skin. They remove old, damaged elastic fibers and collagen so fresh new tissue can grow into these channels. Wrinkles and pigmentation are eliminated and the skin is tightened. The benefit of using a fractional laser is that only the affected area of the skin is worked upon. Therefore, the healing period is short and virtually painless.
Other than treating wrinkles around the eyes, loose eyelid skin and drooping eyebrows, the Madonna lift can also be used to treat Crow’s feet and dark circles. It is suitable for people of all skin types. People from the ages of 30 to 80 have successfully received this treatment.
Patients who receive Madonna Eye lifts experience mild pain which quickly subsides and swelling or redness, which goes away in a few days. Although not highly recommended, make-up can be applied immediately after the treatment, which allows the patients to resume their normal daily activities right away. The whole procedure takes only a few minutes and requires three to five sitting, which is spaced about 4-8 weeks apart.
