Dry eye disease is becoming increasingly common, affecting millions of people worldwide. This chronic condition can significantly impact your life, making even everyday tasks uncomfortable.
If you have eye pain, blurry vision, or dry and watery eyes, it could be a sign that you have dry eye disease. With treatments like Envision by InMode, we can help manage your dry eye symptoms and get you back to seeing clearly and comfortably.
What Is Envision by InMode?
Envision is the new in-office standard revolutionizing procedures in delicate areas. This groundbreaking, nonsurgical device deploys multiple programmable modalities that work synergistically to deliver precision treatments.
Envision combines two advanced technologies:
- Forma-I: bipolar radiofrequency (RF)
- Lumecca-I: intense pulsed light (IPL)
INMODE Lumecca Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Treatment
The INMODE Lumecca IPL treatment works to control inflammation, breaking the cycle of chronic inflammation and reducing the need for medications. IPL treats conditions like ocular rosacea, Meibomian Gland Dysfunction, and inflammatory dry eye. It has also been shown to reduce demodex and bacteria around the eyelids. Powerful bursts of light close off blood vessels that release inflammatory agents in ocular rosacea.
INMODE Forma Radiofrequency (RF) Treatment
The INMODE Forma RF treatment uses radiofrequency energy to generate heat, which is applied to the skin around the eyes. This heat stimulates collagen production and attracts white blood cells and stem cells to the area, reducing inflammation. The treatment also helps open clogged meibomian glands, leading to improved tear production and secretion. RF is typically followed by a Meibomian Gland expression. IPL and RF also reverse signs of aging by stimulating collagen production, smoothing wrinkles, and eliminating dark spots for younger-looking eyes.
What to Expect
Four treatments are generally recommended, spaced one month apart, for optimal results. Treatments and the time between them may vary depending on individual factors and the severity of the condition. It is best to consult with your provider for a personalized treatment plan.
Improvement in dry eye symptoms is often noticed after the second treatment.
After Treatment:
- There is typically no downtime after Envision.
- Some patients may experience mild redness and swelling around the eye for a few hours.
- Patients can return to normal activity after treatment.
