Redefining Your Natural Beauty

At the Eye Care Center of Colorado we offer specialty aesthetic services to not only help rejuvenate, redefine, and replenish your skin, but to manage dry eye symptoms as well.

Envision features in-office procedures designed for delicate areas. A non-surgical device, Envision combines multiple programmable technologies to help deliver precise and effective treatments, like:

  • Forma-I: Uses bipolar radiofrequency (RF) to help stimulate and tighten the skin.
  • Lumecca-I: Employs intense pulsed light (IPL) to help target and improve skin tone and texture.
  • Morpheus8: Features minimally invasive fractional technology to help enhance skin rejuvenation.

Envision’s compact applicators and precise depth control can help enable safe and highly effective treatments in the sensitive, subdermal layers around the eye. By offering non-drug therapies, Envision helps us enhance patient quality of life through advanced, targeted care.

Lumecca

InMode Lumecca is an intense pulsed light treatment (IPL) that works to control the inflammatory process, helping to reduce the need for medications. IPL can treat ocular rosacea, meibomian gland dysfunction, and inflammatory dry eye. It has also been shown to decrease demodex and bacteria around the eyelids. The powerful bursts of light can also close off blood vessels that release inflammation in ocular rosacea. 

Lumecca IPL also has aesthetic applications. Our patients have noticed significant improvements in their overall complexion and the clarity of their skin after treatment.

What Is Lumecca-I?

Lumecca is a powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment designed to help treat pigmented and vascular lesions. Lumecca-I uses photothermolysis, which provides a photo facial through the delivery of a comfortable light treatment. IPL has been FDA-approved for more than 15 years to remove superficial skin lesions.

Lumecca-I creates tissue heating, which helps reduce inflammation. During treatment, there will be a bright flash of light and a sensation on your skin that feels like a light snap from an elastic band. Redness and a slight warming of the skin are normal after treatment and usually subside within an hour.

If you have chronic dry eye caused by ocular rosacea, Lumecca can help decrease the inflammation causing your symptoms.

All treatments are performed right in your physician’s office. As a result, there is no general anesthesia, no incisions, or downtime. Most clients find the treatments very comfortable. 

Your provider will discuss in detail the specifics of your customized treatment plan and how it can address your individual condition.

These treatments are recommended for patients seeking noninvasive procedures to address their symptoms. The small applicators allow for treatment in small and delicate areas. IPL is usually a safe and effective procedure, designed to be used on all skin types.

Forma

InMode Forma radiofrequency treatment (RF) uses radiofrequency energy to generate heat that is applied to the skin around the eyes. Heat stimulates collagen formation, bringing white blood and stem cells to the skin around your eyes to help reduce inflammation. 

RF treatment can aid in opening up clogged meibomian glands, allowing for improved tear production and secretion.

In addition to its aesthetic benefits, Forma is also an effective dry eye treatment if your dry eye is caused by meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).

IPL and RF can help reverse the signs of ageing by stimulating collagen production to smooth wrinkles and eliminate dark spots for younger-looking eyes.

How Does Forma Work?

Forma heats the skin using radiofrequency and thermal energy to help stimulate healing within the deep layers of your skin tissue. This gentle treatment can be used to address the signs of aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, and skin around the eyes that has lost its firmness.

Forma feels like a warm massage in the eye area, helping to improve your blood circulation. The small-size applicator and precision RF depth control allow for treatment in small and delicate areas.

To treat MGD, Forma uses the same heating method to release any debris from the clogged meibomian glands, helping to manage the symptoms of your dry eye at the source. Forma can be an effective treatment for chronic dry eye and can help decrease your need for other remedies such as warm compresses and artificial tears.

Your provider will recommend the ideal number of sessions based on your personal condition. Treatment times and frequency will be specifically tailored to help obtain the optimal results.

Most patients do not experience any side effects, and any skin reaction typically resolves within a few hours. There is no recovery period or downtime associated with these procedures.

Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is a skin rejuvenation procedure that pairs micro-needling with radiofrequency energy to reform and revitalize the skin around and under the eye. In as little as three treatments, this procedure can improve the appearance of under eye bags, dark circles, and fine lines or wrinkles.

Banish Under Eye Bags with Morpheus

As we age, the collagen and elastin underneath your eyes can become weak, leading to sagging or puffiness. Unfortunately, this can result in stubborn under-eye bags. In the past, only surgeries could treat under-eye bags, but Morpheus8 offers a new way to relieve the negative effects of aging and genetics in this area.

Morpheus8 can tighten the skin under your eyes, helping to lift it and reduce bags. It can also make the skin in this area a bit thicker, reducing puffiness and dark circles.

Our optometrists will develop a fully customized plan for achieving your goals. While some people see excellent results after just one session, several sessions may offer the best benefits.

This procedure is a minimally invasive treatment that uses tiny needles to deliver radiofrequency energy deeply and precisely into the underlying layers of your skin. This triggers your body’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins that are essential for tight skin.

In addition to improving under eye bags, Morpheus8 can be used on any small hard-to-reach and facial soft tissue revealing a more youthful and radiant appearance. Some of the other issues Morpheus8 can address include:

  • Acne scarring
  • Large pores
  • Sun damage
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Irregular skin texture
  • Lines & wrinkles
