For significant improvement, hooded eyelids require surgery if there is enough skin. For nonsurgical treatments: Radiofrequency (Thermage or Venus Legacy/Viva), injectable fillers, and a Botox brow lift can help contour the eyebrows and lift the eyelid skin. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer.
Plasma pen can be helpful to decrease hooding of eyelids. Please have this done by a professional and not with a home unit. The home units are weak, but still could leave bad scarring if not correctly done. Please, please do not ty to treat yourself!
Yes, the plasma pen can be used to treat hooded eyelids. You can see results after one treatment, if the loose skin is severe then it may take multiple treatments. You can see a small change on the day of procedure but it will take 8-12 weeks to see the full results from your treatment.I would not trust a non-medical professional or device to perform this procedure. You are breaking the skin & essentially burning the top layers so there is a risk of infection, if the procedure is not done with a sterile tip or proper precautions are not followed, you are greatly increasing those risks...not worth it especially when dealing with the eyelid. This treatment also carries the risk of scaring and skin pigment changes so it is best to be under the care of a trained medical professional for this procedure to avoid these adverse events.
