Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .

There are other more appropriate and effective treatments for under eye bags than eMatrix which causes subtle skin tightening in this area. If it is just subtle tear troughs, fillers may be appropriate. If it is prominent fat pads, lower lid blepharoplasty by a plastic or oculoplastic surgeon may be appropriate.BestH Karamanoukian MD FACS
eMatrix has a unique piece which tightens the skin under the eyes and produces new collagen and removes fine lines. However, no laser will remove bags under the eyes since this is fat which needs to be surgically removed. Best, Dr. Green
eMatrix can be used to tighten skin and reduce wrinkles around the eyes. It can make the under-eye area look smoother, but if you have an area that puffs out like a little pillow, the eMatrix will not remove it. Those are called festoons, and surgery is the most effective treatment for that.
eMatrix can tighten skin, however the cause of eye bags are multifactorial. An assessment is need to determined the cause of eye bags- including fat herniation, festoons (wet or dry), volume loss around the area, lax skin, strong eye muscles (hypertrophic obicularis oculi). Most often eye bags are due to a combination of factors, and hence I always address the CAUSE of bags, in some cases lasers can help, in other cases Botox (for over active muscles) or most commonly fillers such as Restylane or Juvederm for volume loss. Hope this answers your question- its not about the device is about the method to treat the cause. Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
The number of tips and pulses depends on the size of the treatment area, and the amount of overlap of pulses (for acne scarring more overlap will generally give better results). It is hard to know exactly how many pulses it will take until you see the patient and start the procedure,...
This is NOT the reaction you should have gotten from the ematrix device. I suggest you see your physician immediately and get on proper wound care so you do not gets scars or hyperpigmentation. Please ensure you see an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.
Very unusual reaction to eMatrix, especially at a very low level. eMatrix is not a laser, but uses RF or radio frequency. At this level, we should only expect swelling for 1-3 days, depending on the over laps. Have you got a base line before photo, as this is always taken by 'laser schools' as a...
