Which Laser Skin Resurfacing is Safest to Use Around My Eyes? 

Your Premier Vein & Body team offers Tixel®, a highly effective resurfacing treatment safe for use on the eye area and even eyelids. Because Tixel® does not use laser energy, it is the only treatment safe for the eyelids. Tixel® can address concerns such as eye bags, sagging eyelids, and skin laxity around the eyes. This treatment has revolutionized the treatment of the eye area by providing safe, effective resurfacing. 

Along with the eyes, Tixel® can be used to rejuvenate and firm the entire face. Unlike most lasers, it is safe for all skin types and tones. Tixel® is the only treatment to use Thermal-Mechanical Action (TMA)®. It uses heat and motion instead of light pulses like a traditional laser. Tixel® is also effective for treating acne by resurfacing the skin, tightening pores, and controlling oil production. 

How Does Tixel® Laser Skin Resurfacing Work? 

Tixel® does not use light for skin resurfacing. Your Premier Vein & Body provider will move the handpiece over your skin. A small plate covered with tiny titanium pyramids briefly touches your skin, transferring heat energy that creates microchannels. These channels are tightly controlled and customizable enough for use on the eyelids themselves. They trigger collagen production and skin rejuvenation for firmer, smoother eyelids and tighter skin under the eyes. 

Tixel® is often referred to as a non-surgical blepharoplasty due to its ability to lift and tighten your eyelid skin. It makes an excellent option for those who want to see significant improvements around the eyes without surgery. Tixel® triggers new collagen development and tightens existing collagen for a more youthful, bright-eyed look. 

What Can Tixel® Laser Skin Resurfacing Treat?

Most skin conditions around the eyes respond well to treatment with Tixel®. However, this effective treatment has many other uses. Around the eyes, Tixel® can treat:

• Sagging skin
• Crepey eyelids
• Puffy under-eye bags
• Loss of firmness
• A tired or drooping appearance
• Thin skin

Tixel® laser resurfacing leaves the eye area looking healthier and more youthful. This treatment improves the skin’s thickness, tightness, and tone. 

We also use Tixel® for all-over skin resurfacing. Many individuals who would be at high risk of side effects from a laser can benefit from this non-light treatment. Tixel® effectively treats acne, textural issues, hyperpigmentation, and skin laxity.
