Y ou have probably heard it before: "The eyes are the window to the soul." Your eyes may reveal who you are inside, but they can also reveal signs of aging or lack of sleep. If you want to look younger, fresher, and more awake, check out these options, and call Gateway

Aesthetic for a consultation to find the perfect eye treatment for you. Sagging eyelids Many people suffer from sagging eyelids, usually because of genetics or aging. Most often, this is simply a cosmetic problem, but it may also impair vision. Everyone is familiar with the embarrassing situation when someone asks, "You sure look tired! Are you feeling all right?" when the person in question has had a perfectly sufficient amount of sleep. Fortunately, this situation doesn't have to happen to you. Blepharoplasty, or laser eyelid surgery, is the perfect solution for sagging eyelids, and it is becoming increasingly popular at Gateway Aesthetic and across the nation. In the past, the majority of blepharoplasty surgeries were performed with a scalpel and scissors. Today, Gateway Aesthetic uses a pulsed laser to remove skin and fat, resulting in significantly less bleeding, bruising, post-treatment pain, and risk of scarring. Blepharoplasty can be performed without hospitalization or general anesthesia. Local anesthesia and oral sedation are used instead, providing great results with less risk and less downtime.

Tear troughs and bags

Both tear troughs and bags contribute to a tiredlooking appearance. Tear troughs refer to the indentations that appear from the corner of your eye and across your cheek, where tears typically fall. Bags refer to puffiness below the eyes.

With these and other similar conditions, the best solution would be dermal fillers such as Restylane and Perlane. With a treatment of fillers, the skin can look smooth and refreshed. Fillers can also improve the appearance of hollow-looking eyes and even out other areas of the face.
