Aging Skin & Eyes
Restore what time has taken away—with medical-grade and science-backed care.
Aging around the eyes and face is one of the most common aesthetic concerns, but also one of the most multi-dimensional. The visible signs—wrinkles, hollowness, skin laxity, and loss of contour—often stem from changes occurring at several layers: skin, fat, muscle, and even bone.
At Cutis Medical Laser Clinics, we address aging with a holistic, layered approach using medical technologies and doctor-led planning. Our suite of medical treatments includes injectables, collagen-stimulating therapies, and device-based solutions, all selected to match your facial structure, skin quality, and goals.
Medical Treatment Options for Aging Skin & Eyes
Botulinum Toxin
Relax overactive muscles that contribute to dynamic wrinkles.
(U.S. FDA certified)
Botulinum toxin is a purified protein that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for expression lines. It is used to treat forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines, and lower face concerns such as chin dimpling or downturned mouth corners.
Botulinum toxin is a widely performed aesthetic procedure due to its versatility and effectiveness. It works by interrupting the nerve signals that cause muscle contraction, helping the skin appear smoother and more rested.
At Cutis, we commonly use it to treat the upper face—forehead lines, glabellar frown lines, and crow’s feet—but also to soften the jawline, correct chin puckering, reduce neck bands, or lift downturned corners of the mouth.
When carefully dosed and placed by experienced physicians, botulinum toxin can refresh the face without altering its natural expressiveness.
Results typically appear within 3 to 7 days and last about 3 to 4 months. Patients often return for regular maintenance every quarter.
Collagen Stimulators
Gradually rebuild skin structure by activating your own collagen production.
(U.S. FDA certified)
Collagen stimulators are injectable biostimulants that work beneath the surface to enhance firmness, elasticity, and skin density over time. Rather than filling lines or folds directly, they improve the overall structure of the skin.
Collagen is a key protein that gives skin its firmness and elasticity. After age 25, production declines rapidly, leading to thinning, laxity, and visible aging.
Collagen stimulators are injected into the deeper layers of the skin to reawaken fibroblasts—cells responsible for collagen synthesis. Over several weeks, this results in stronger, firmer skin with improved tone.
These treatments are especially effective for larger, diffuse areas like the cheeks, lower face, and jawline. Unlike dermal fillers, they don’t add bulk or volume, but instead work naturally over time.
A typical plan includes 2–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, with visible effects that continue to improve over 2–3 months and can last up to two years.

Dermal Fillers
Replenish lost volume and enhance natural contours of the face.
(U.S. FDA certified)
Dermal fillers are injectable gels used to replace facial volume lost through aging. They can be used in multiple areas including the cheeks, lips, temples, jawline, and tear troughs to restore definition and symmetry.
The face loses volume with age due to shrinkage in fat pads, bone, and muscle. This leads to hollowness under the eyes, flattening of the cheeks, jowling, and thin or deflated lips.
Dermal fillers are designed to replace this lost volume and restore youthful proportions. At Cutis, they are used not only to “fill” but also to lift, contour, and create subtle enhancements based on individual anatomy.
All filler treatments are conducted by experienced doctors who assess facial structure and movement patterns to ensure results look natural and proportional.
Depending on the area and product, results can last from 9 to 18 months. Regular maintenance is often part of a long-term facial harmonization plan.
Fractional Plasma
Skin resurfacing for delicate, aging skin around the eyes and mouth.
Fractional plasma is a non-invasive treatment that uses plasma energy to create controlled thermal micro-injuries, stimulating skin renewal and collagen production. It is highly effective for crepey skin, fine lines, and superficial laxity—especially around the eyes.
Fractional plasma technology generates a grid of tiny, controlled injuries to the outermost layer of the skin, prompting the body’s natural repair process.
Unlike lasers or RF, plasma energy works via sublimation—turning a solid (the skin) into gas without going through a liquid phase—which allows for treatment on fragile areas like eyelids, under-eyes, or above the lip.
This treatment is ideal for patients seeking visible skin tightening and texture refinement without injectables or surgery.
Downtime is mild to moderate and usually includes redness, flaking, and temporary dots or crusts in the treatment zone. Final results are seen over 4–6 weeks as collagen production increases.
RF Microneedling with Erbium Glass Laser
Refine, tighten, and smooth skin—especially around the eyes—with a dual-action system.
(U.S. FDA-cleared)
Radiofrequency Microneedling with Erbium Glass Laser helps tighten and smooth aging skin, with a focus on delicate areas like the under-eyes. It remodels collagen, refines texture, and rejuvenates skin from within.
RF microneedling with Erbium Glass Laser is a skin rejuvenation treatment that pairs two technologies to target skin at multiple levels.
The microneedles penetrate the dermis and deliver RF energy to stimulate collagen and elastin, while the erbium laser resurfaces the epidermis to refine texture and tone.
This combination is safe for use around the eye area and is especially effective for fine lines, early laxity, and crepey skin.
Most patients experience minimal downtime—usually mild redness or flaking for 1–2 days. Best results are seen after 2–3 sessions, each spaced about a month apart.
Monopolar Radiofrequency (RF)
Non-invasive thermal tightening for the face and delicate eye area.
Monopolar RF is a gentle yet effective radiofrequency therapy that promotes collagen remodeling through contact-based deep heating. It is safe for use around the eyes and helps to improve skin firmness and tone.
Monopolar Radiofrequency (RF) is a contact-based RF handpiece that delivers consistent, comfortable heat into the dermis, encouraging fibroblasts to produce new collagen.
This treatment is often recommended for patients with early signs of skin laxity, particularly in the lower face, jawline, and under the eyes.
It is one of the few RF devices gentle enough to be used on the upper eyelid and periorbital area, making it an excellent choice for those not yet ready for lasers or surgery.
Most patients require a series of 4–6 treatments spaced 1–2 weeks apart, with no downtime and a noticeable improvement in tone and elasticity.
Ultherapy PRIME
Lift, sculpt, and firm—especially the brows—with microfocused ultrasound energy.
Ultherapy PRIME is a non-invasive skin lifting treatment that uses focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen production at deep tissue layers. It is particularly effective for lifting the brow, improving under-eye support, and redefining the jawline.
Ultherapy PRIME delivers micro-focused ultrasound energy into the SMAS layer, the same layer addressed in surgical facelifts. This triggers neocollagenesis (new collagen formation), resulting in gradual skin lifting and tightening.
What sets Ultherapy PRIME apart is its real-time ultrasound imaging, which allows doctors to see exactly where energy is being delivered. This ensures treatment is safe and targeted.
The brow is one of its most requested treatment areas—it helps lift hooded eyelids, open the eyes, and improve the overall upper-face contour.
With minimal to no downtime, Ultherapy is ideal for patients seeking a natural-looking lift without injectables or surgery. Results develop over 8–12 weeks and can last 12 months or more.
