What are under-eye bags?
The bad news first…you can give a big thank you to your parents for the bags under your eyes. Unlike ‘puffiness’ typically caused by lack of sleep, dehydration or allergies, many women and men experience eye bags because their parents have them and as we get older they become more visible.
Introducing Neotensil™
Now the good news…we are happy to offer our patients a revolutionary solution for under-eye bags—Neotensil Under-Eye Reshaping Procedure.
What is Neotensil?
Neotensil is the first do-it-yourself, non-invasive solution that acts like invisible facial shapewear to visibly compress under-eye bags. It’s transparent, natural looking and you can see results within an hour.
Upon application, it forms a breathable, invisible film that:
- Tightens, compresses, smoothes and re-contours the appearance of eye bags and lax skin for up to 16 hours.
- Is noninvasive, requires no needles, no surgery, no downtime
- Is safe, comfortable, does not cause irritation and is durable enough to be worn all day
- Is designed for daily at-home application
The Neotensil kit is designed for 7 weeks of daily usage and contains:
- Step 1: The Reshaping Base
- Step 2: The Activating Layer
- Neotensil Reshaping Tool
- Neotensil Remover and Neotensil Remover Pads
- Neotensil Skin Prep Towelettes
Optional: Neotensil Under-Eye Coverage Powder available in five shades to match your skin tone and enhance your appearance by providing additional coverage for any skin discoloration/dark circles or to blend with full-face makeup.
The Science
So what makes Neotensil work? Scientifically developed and clinically tested by leading dermatologists, Neotensil uses breakthrough skin technology, Strateris®, a skin-conforming polymer technology that acts like a “second skin” and is wearable, breathable, durable, invisible and adheres to the skin. The Strateris technology intrinsically wants to shrink and become flat, helping to reshape and compress the appearance of bulges and underlying, lax skin.3
The Results – Before & After Photos
The Biesman Anderson Gilchrest Lower Lid Typing Scale™ is used by skin care physicians to determine the severity of under-eye bags. The B.A.G. scale ranges from 1-9; 1 being non-existent or very mild, and 9, the most severe rating, is marked by very prominent under-eye bags with very prominent orbital fat.4 After using Neotensil, 94% of patients in a clinical study saw an improvement of 1 bag grade or greater and 68% with moderate bags improved by 2 grades or more. What’s more, 99% of users demonstrated a positive global aesthetic response, in other words, they felt that their overall appearance was improved. While the primary purpose of Neotensil is to minimize the appearance of under-eye bags, many people will also be delighted with how Neotensil also improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around their eyes.
