New technologies are important in the advancement of any field. Two such advancements in blepharoplasty and brow lifting include use of the PlasmaBlade and fractionated CO (2) laser resurfacing. The PlasmaBlade uses pulsed radiofrequency energy with a highly insulated blade to assist with incision and dissection during eyelid surgery, resulting in minimal bruising and edema. This article describes specifically how the PlasmaBlade can be used and its typical settings. Fractionated CO (2) laser resurfacing is also a powerful tool that can significantly enhance eyelid rejuvenation. This resurfacing can address fine lines in the periocular region with limited downtime. Use of these technologies can help to improve results and shorten the recovery time traditionally associated with blepharoplasty and periocular resurfacing.
新技术对任何领域的发展都很重要。在眼睑整形术和提眉术中的两项此类进展包括使用PlasmaBlade和分次二氧化碳激光换肤术。PlasmaBlade使用带有高度绝缘刀片的脉冲射频能量,在眼睑手术期间辅助进行切口和解剖,从而使瘀伤和水肿最小化。本文具体描述了PlasmaBlade的使用方法及其典型设置。分次二氧化碳激光换肤术也是一种强大的工具,可以显著增强眼睑年轻化效果。这种换肤术可以在有限的停工期内解决眼周区域的细纹问题。使用这些技术有助于改善手术效果,并缩短传统上与眼睑整形术和眼周换肤术相关的恢复时间。
