What Is an Eye Refresh?

The Eye Refresh treatment is a non-invasive rejuvenating treatment specifically created with the delicate eye area in mind. By combining two proven techniques – microneedling and chemical peels – Lucy is able to target fine lines, wrinkles, crepey skin, and overall dullness around the eyes.

  • Microneedling is a collagen-induction therapy that involves creating micro-injuries on the skin's surface. This process stimulates the body's natural healing response, prompting the production of fresh collagen and elastin. These two proteins are essential for maintaining the skin's firmness, elasticity, and refreshed appearance.

  • Chemical peels gently exfoliate the top layer of skin, removing dead cells and encouraging the growth of new, healthy skin. When used as part of the Eye Refresh treatment, the peel prepares the area for microneedling, enriching the overall efficacy of the procedure.

  • The Eye Refresh treatment is designed to:

    1.) Address crepey, sagging skin around the upper and lower eyelids.

    2.) Smooth fine lines and wrinkles for a refreshed appearance.

    3.) Brighten dark circles and improve dullness.

    4.) Stimulate collagen and elastin production for firmer, healthier skin.

    5.) Enhance skin texture, tone, and tightness around the eyes.

  • The Eye Refresh treatment is designed to be both straightforward and highly effective, focusing on delivering noticeable results with minimal downtime. It begins with a thorough consultation, during which Lucy carefully assesses your concerns and crafts a bespoke treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

    On the day of your treatment, a gentle chemical peel is applied to exfoliate the skin, removing dead cells and preparing the most vibrant layers for the next step. After the skin has been treated with the peel, microneedling is performed to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, rejuvenating the skin from within.

  • Lucy offers the Eye Refresh treatment to patients looking for a non-invasive way to reinvigorate the eye area. With myriad benefits to the Eye Refresh treatment, patients can expect:

    1.) A natural collagen boost thanks to microneedling stimulating the production of collagen and elastin to firm and plump the skin.

    2.) An improvement in texture as a result of the combination of peeling and microneedling, helping to smooth the skin and manage rough or uneven patches.

    3.) A brighter, more awake appearance with reduced dark circles and an ageless under-eye glow.

    4.) Very little downtime when compared to surgical or more invasive alternatives.

    5.) A bespoke treatment plan that is custom-built to address your unique skin requirements and deliver the results you are hoping to achieve.

Eye Refresh Before and After

Eye Refresh, Marylebone

Step 1: Comprehensive Consultation

When you come into the clinic for the first time, you will sit down with Lucy to have a detailed discussion about your beauty goals. You will share everything you love about your look and discuss the areas where you would like to see some improvements. Lucy will assess your skin, and together, you will curate a bespoke treatment plan based on Lucy's professional expertise and your goals.

Step 2: Skin Preparation

On the day of the treatment, Lucy will begin by gently cleansing the treatment area to remove any impurities. She will then apply a specialised chemical peel to the area to exfoliate dead skin cells and prepare the area for microneedling.

Step 3: Microneedling Treatment

After numbing the area, Lucy uses a medical-grade microneedling device to create microchannels in the skin. This process triggers the body's natural healing response, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin.

Step 4: Aftercare Guidance

You'll receive detailed aftercare instructions to help protect your skin and enhance the results. Avoid picking or squeezing the skin to prevent irritation. Stay away from direct sunlight, tanning beds, intense workouts, hot showers, baths, spas, and saunas. Refrain from swimming in chlorinated pools or the ocean, using spray tans or self-tanners, and any tattooing.

Lucy will also be available to answer any questions as your skin heals and transforms.
