Core Tip
Core Tip: Non-surgical procedures represent a valid alternative to surgery in the rejuvenation of the periorbital area. When the problem can be corrected by ‘filling’ more and ‘removing’ less, fillers may be of use. Laser treatment and microsurgical techniques can provide a viable solution when the main concern is based on excess and/or inelasticity of the skin.
