Background The periorbital region is among the first areas to be affected by the process of aging, which is influenced by genetic and constitutional factors. As the region plays an important role in overall facial appearance, rejuvenation of the area has immense cosmetic benefit and various treatment modalities have been used to achieve the same. Aims This article reviews commonly used non‐surgical and minimally invasive modalities for periorbital rejuvenation. Methods The literature research considered published journal articles (clinical trials or scientific reviews). Studies were identified by searching electronic databases (MEDLINE and PubMed) and reference lists of respective articles. Only articles available in English were considered for this review. Results Autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP) is increasingly used in dermatology for skin and hair conditions. The use of PRP is rapidly growing in popularity as a modality to achieve skin rejuvenation. The mechanism by which PRP leads to skin rejuvenation is by increasing the dermal fibroblast proliferation, expression of matrix metalloproteinase and collagen synthesis. Conclusion The evidence discussed in this article indicates the increasing importance of minimally invasive modalities in periorbital rejuvenation and a promising role for PRP as solo therapy or in multimodality regimens.

“…Skin changes, including rhytids, photodamage, thinning, laxity, and a decrease in dermal collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, are also a part of the facial aging process. 27,39 Optimal periorbital rejuvenation should treat these skin changes and not just the soft tissue and osseous changes. Various therapies have been described to stimulate dermal collagen synthesis and to improve the appearance of rhytids and dyschromia.…”

“…Options for treatment include 20 to 50% glycolic acid, 10 to 30% trichloroacetic acid (TCA), and Jessner solution (resorcinol, salicylic acid, and lactic acid in 95% ethanol). 39 These agents act primarily on the epidermis and result in mild improvement of rhytids and dyschromia.…”

The periorbital region is a focal point on the face. Dermatochalasis, fat herniation, blepharoptosis, brow ptosis, deep tear troughs, and malar fat pad descent are all age-related changes that occur around the eyes, and successful rejuvenation involves addressing all of these changes. Restoring a youthful, vibrant appearance to the eyes and periorbital areas can often only be accomplished with a combination of surgical and nonsurgical interventions. Facial plastic surgeons should have a comprehensive knowledge of all of these options and their applications to ensure good patient outcomes and satisfaction.

“…Microdermabrasion is more often used prior to laser treatment [29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. There are more than thirty chemical peels for dermatology and cosmetology, and more than ten of them are applied together with lasers [36][37][38][39][40]. Diffusion through skin may be enhanced by sonophoresis (phonophoresis), electrophoresis (iontophoresis), external pressure, and massage [20,[41][42][43][44][45][46].…”

Clinical applications of photoacoustic (PA) flow cytometry (PAFC) for detection of circulating tumor cells in deep blood vessels are hindered by laser beam scattering, that result in loss of PAFC sensitivity and resolution. We demonstrate biocompatible and rapid optical clearing (OC) of skin to minimize light scattering and thus, increase optical resolution and sensitivity of PAFC. OC effect was achieved in 20 min by sequent skin cleaning, microdermabrasion, and glycerol application enhanced by massage and sonophoresis. Using ~0.8 mm mouse skin layer over a blood vessel in vitro phantom we demonstrated 1.6-fold decrease in laser spot blurring accompanied by 1.6-fold increase in PA signal amplitude from blood background. As a result, peak rate for B16F10 melanoma cells in blood flow increased 1.7-fold. By using OC we also demonstrated the feasibility of PA contrast improvement for human hand veins.
