Patients and surgeons today have access to a number of exciting new technologies for cosmetic surgery as well as non-surgical cosmetic treatments, according to experts speaking at the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery.
Dr. David Goldberg, a skin laser surgery specialist, explains that the gap is closing between what surgeons try to do and what patients want to see.
A high-energy plasma skin regeneration process used to firm the skin around the eyes was a featured treatment at the event.
In one study of a clinical trial of the new procedure, patients reported a 64 percent improvement rate, says Dr. Brian Biesman of the Nashville Centre for Laser and Facial Surgery.
Dr. Biesman had a positive take on changes in the cosmetic surgery industry. He believes that plasma treatments for the eyelid are an exciting and workable procedure that will add to the cosmetic surgeon’s total box of tools.
