When people look to begin erasing the signs of aging from their faces, they usually start with the eyes. Skincare products for years have claimed to do the same as more expensive treatments, like Botox but many have failed to produce quick results, disappointing people all over the world. Today, with advances in technology providing eye treatment creams like Obagi Elastiderm Eye Creams for fine lines and wrinkles and Latisse for filling out eyelashes, the dream of classically beautiful eyes can be achieved.
What Obagi Elastiderm Eye Cream Does
Like most eye treatment creams on the market, it promises to create a renewed and youthful appearance around the eyes by stimulating the production of elastin and collagen proteins in the skin. What makes it different from a lot of the others is the quickness of the results. Most patients who use this eye treatment report seeing signs of wrinkles and fine lines disappearing in less than two weeks from the initial treatment.
Elastin is the protein responsible for providing elasticity to the skin. While it is always present in the skin, it usually stops being produced regularly around the time you go into puberty. Collagen, another protein, is responsible for creating that full look to the skin and is often injected during cosmetic treatments to fill in acne scars and depressions left behind by severe illnesses. Treating the area around the eyes with Obagi means that, unlike other products, not only is production of these proteins restored, it also binds those proteins into insoluble fibers containing both, making them last far longer than other products.
What Latisse is Primarily Used For
Latisse, as a cosmetic treatment, is primarily prescribed for sufferers of hypotrichosis, a condition where you have thin or brittle eyelashes. Use of this product will increase the number of eyelashes present, as well as making them appear fuller and longer. Some patients who have taken the Obagi treatment for removing lines and wrinkles around they eyes may want to complete the look by having Latisse treatment to fill out their eyelashes if they are wanting in appearance.
The only side effects from using Latisse to filling in and thickening your eyelashes that have been reported is occasional eye irritation, and a rare pigmentation appearing primarily on the eyelids. However, if you want to add a Latisse treatment to the schedule with the Obagi Elastiderm Eye Cream treatments, you may want to check with your dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon before combining the two immediately. It may be possible to do one before the other, but every case is different, and a consultation should be done for safety reasons.
