Over time, I have received a few questions here about the plasma jet, and patients want to know whether the result of an incisionless blepharoplasty surgery with the plasma jet is the same as that of a traditional surgery.
Incisionless blepharoplasty: learn about the plasma jet technique
As for this “incisionless blepharoplasty” surgery, I consider the name rather inappropriate, because it is not a surgery as such, but it ends up giving patients the idea that it is a solution similar to traditional surgery.
Plasma jet blepharoplasty
In fact, what this plasma jet device does is a subtle tightening of the skin in the eyelid area. It does not treat bags, it does not treat the tendon; it is a surface surgery with a subtle result.
To stay true to the question that was asked, the answer is no. A so-called incisionless surgery, in this case the plasma jet, produces a subtle tightening of the skin and the eyelids and does not compare with traditional blepharoplasty surgery.
In my treatments, I have been proposing traditional blepharoplasty surgery, even for young patients, with the use of a chemical peel or fractional CO2 laser to tighten the skin and make the result even more beautiful.
