The EyeTrek Trio® is an advanced surgical procedure designed to address the most common signs of aging around the eyes, offering a comprehensive solution for under-eye rejuvenation. Developed by Dr. Tagani and her colleagues, this technique combines three advanced procedures to deliver natural, youthful, and long-lasting results. Whether you are looking to smooth under-eye bags, tighten loose skin, or restore lost volume, the EyeTrek Trio® is tailored to meet your needs with precision and artistry.
What Does the EyeTrek Trio® Address?
- Under-Eye Bags: Weakening of the orbital fat structures can result in herniation, creating puffiness and shadowing under the eyes, often mistaken for dark circles.
- Skin Laxity and Texture: The thin skin around the eyes loses elasticity with age, becoming crepey and contributing to sagging lower eyelids and droopy upper eyelids.
- Volume Loss: Facial aging leads to a reduction in sub-brow and orbital volume, deepening hollows (tear troughs and lateral areas) and causing midface descent, which exacerbates a tired, sunken appearance.
The EyeTrek Trio® Procedure
This transformative approach combines three cutting-edge techniques into one seamless operation:
1. Lower Blepharoplasty with Fat Repositioning and Canthopexy
- Removes or repositions herniated fat to eliminate puffiness, lifts the canthus for structural support, and tightens loose skin under the eyes.
2. Nano Fat Grafting
- Uses processed fat from the patient to restore lost volume under the eyes and surrounding areas, creating smooth, youthful contours.
3. Ablative Laser Resurfacing
- Tightens the skin, improves texture, and reduces fine lines for a refreshed, radiant appearance.
Who Is the Ideal Candidate?
The EyeTrek Trio® is ideal for patients who:
- Experience under-eye bags, puffiness, or loose skin.
- Have visible hollows or volume loss around the eyes.
- Seek a more youthful, smooth, and lifted periocular appearance.
- Are in good general health and have realistic expectations for results.
Preparation for the Baby Eye® Technique
To ensure the best results, preparation is key:
- Lifestyle Adjustments: Avoid alcohol and smoking for at least one week before the procedure.
- Skin Health: Maintain good skin care, avoid excessive sun exposure, and consider pre-procedure skin treatments if recommended.
- Medications: Discuss any medications or supplements with us during your consultation to ensure compatibility.
- Medical History: Provide a complete medical history to confirm suitability for the Baby Eye procedure.
Anesthesia and Recovery
Our process is simple and patient-focused:
- Anesthesia: Typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation for optimal precision and patient comfort.
- Recovery: Expect mild swelling and bruising for 1-2 weeks, with most patients returning to work in 5-7 days. Eye packs, Arnica, and Bromelain are recommended to reduce swelling and bruising.
When Can I Exercise?
Light walking is allowed after a few days with sun protection, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for 2-3 weeks.
When Will I See Final Results?
Initial improvements are visible within the first week, with 60-70% of results apparent after the first month. Full outcomes typically take 3-6 months, depending on individual healing.
Fun Fact
The name EyeTrek Trio® reflects the collaboration between Dr. Tagani and her two colleagues, all plastic surgeons, who developed this technique while addressing common under-eye concerns in younger patients. Inspired by their teamwork as a trio and the three distinct steps in the procedure, the name represents both their partnership and the innovative, comprehensive approach to rejuvenation.
