Given the fact that you are 30 years old, my suspicion is that you are referring to what are described as "crow's feet". Botox is the most effective treatment for this aesthetic issue. If you do have a moderate amount of line related to sun damage, you may want to consider a skin resurfacing option like a TCA peel. Thermage is a device that uses radio frequency to tighten skin. It's a great sounding name, but results have been very equivocal. Affirm is a non ablative laser that might provide some benefit. However, a long line of non ablative lasers such as "Nlite", "Cooltouch", etc have preceded Affirm and have provided less than spectacular results.
The Affirm laser can improve skin quality and Thermage can tighten the skin. Therefore, sometimes both technologies are used on the same person to lead to the best results.
If the choice was between Affirm and Thermage then Affirm will improve the fine line. However, since expression dynamics are the main cause, other measures like neurotoxins (Botox) should be considered.
Definitely Affirm, it’s a new type of laser eyelift. At Juva we have what’s called the Madonna Lift. It utilizes an innovative fractional CO2 laser which creates tiny microscopic channels in the tissue so that new collagen can grow in to rejuvenate the skin. It dramatically reduces the appearance of dark rings and wrinkles while tightening eyelid skin and elevating drooping eyebrows. Botox around the eyes will help to preserve the treatment, it will reframe the muscle from breaking down the collagen that the laser has just rejuvenated.
Actually, neither laser nor Thermage is best for eyeliud wrinkles as these are caused by squinting and smiling. Well performed Botox is the best treatment. Even if you lasered these wrinkles, they would just come back unless you block the muscle function ith Botox. So, skip the expensive laser/Thermage treatment and go directly to Botox.
IPL (intense pulsed light) is not a laser, but rather avery bright light that, shone on the skin, helps even out minor color irregularities - especially red and brown spots. It stays mainly on the surface. The Affirm fractional laser is a concentrated laser that makes pinpoint...
The great benefit here is that you get 2 laser treatments simultaneously. The Fraxel and most similar systems are generally 1540nm wavelength laser that emit fractional energy 800 microns to 1600 microns into the skin. The Affirm emits 2 wavelengths 1 that most of the energy ends up at 300...
Thank you for your question. The Affirm laser is a fractional resurfacing technology to remove wrinkles, improve skin texture and pigmentation. After 10 days of treatment you should see some skin tightening. Please make sure you seek treatment from a board-certified specialist.
