A skin pinch is a precise lower eyelid refinement that removes excess crepey skin without changing eye shape or expression. When paired with Vertical Restore®, it completes the result with natural-looking detail.
What a Skin Pinch Addresses
A skin pinch is a targeted lower eyelid technique designed to improve loose or crepey skin without disturbing muscle, fat, or the natural shape of the eye. It is especially effective for patients who feel that fillers, lasers, or skincare alone can no longer address textural changes under the eyes. A skin pinch may be appropriate for patients who notice:
- Fine wrinkling that persists despite non-surgical treatments
- Crepey or excess skin beneath the lower eyelids
- Mismatch between refreshed cheeks and aging lower eyelids
- A tired or heavy appearance around the eyes
When thoughtfully incorporated into Vertical Restore, the skin pinch helps ensure the eyes reflect the same vitality as the rest of the face.
