Bumpy, chicken skin-like texture under eyes? Treatment for Sebaceous Gland Hyperplasia

Agnes Treatment for Periocular Sebaceous Gland Hyperplasia

The Agnes treatment for periocular sebaceous gland hyperplasia differs from simply applying a single shot to each lesion.

The periorbital area has thin, sensitive skin, so the size, depth, and distribution of the lesions, as well as skin thickness and eye line, must be meticulously considered.

Using Agnes insulated radiofrequency microneedles, we precisely target problematic sebaceous glands and delicately improve the bumpy skin texture appearing under the eyes.

1. Scatter Pattern Design Tailored to Sebaceous Gland Distribution

Sebaceous gland hyperplasia often appears not as one or two isolated bumps under the eyes, but as multiple small protrusions scattered or clustered together.

Therefore, instead of merely targeting bumps visible to the naked eye, we meticulously analyze the extent and direction of sebaceous gland distribution to plan the treatment with a scatter pattern that encompasses from the center to the periphery of the lesion.

Beyond the outwardly bumpy areas, we also consider the surrounding sebaceous glands, aiming for an even smoother skin texture under the eyes.

2. Adjusting Needle Depth and Radiofrequency Output for Each Periorbital Area

Among facial areas, the skin under the eyes is particularly thin and sensitive.

Excessively deep or strong treatments can increase risks such as redness, swelling, hyperpigmentation, and skin texture damage.

By carefully assessing the size and depth of each lesion, as well as the thickness and sensitivity of the periorbital skin, we set appropriate needle lengths and radiofrequency output values for the treatment.

The energy intensity and delivery time are adjusted differently for each individual lesion, and even in cases requiring repeat treatments, the needle position is finely tuned to prevent excessive stimulation to the same area, ensuring precise treatment.

3. Agnes Treatment with Selective Coagulation of Problematic Sebaceous Glands

In cases of sebaceous gland hyperplasia, simply removing dead skin cells from the surface may not lead to fundamental improvement.

Agnes utilizes insulated radiofrequency microneedles to deliver energy directly to the problematic sebaceous gland area, minimizing damage to the skin surface.

This method precisely targets sebaceous gland lesions to coagulate the excessively proliferated sebaceous glands. This can help delicately smooth out the bumpy protrusions under the eyes that resemble goosebumps.

Various methods can be used to treat sebaceous gland hyperplasia, such as laser, electrocautery, and radiofrequency treatments, which aim to reduce the lesions themselves.

4. Real-time Feedback-Based Treatment Confirming Lesion Temperature Response

Agnes radiofrequency treatment precisely delivers thermal energy to problematic sebaceous glands, locally coagulating the affected area.

If heat delivery is appropriate, the lesion area may slightly swell or show color changes during the procedure, and these responses can be used to monitor the treatment progress.

By closely observing these real-time responses, we reinforce necessary areas and carefully avoid excessive thermal stimulation, approaching periocular sebaceous gland hyperplasia delicately.

After the treatment, we jointly inspect the treated area and conduct a re-check to ensure no areas were missed.

5. Delicate Finishing Process Considering Periorbital Skin Texture

Treatment for periocular sebaceous gland hyperplasia goes beyond simply removing bumps; it prioritizes the overall natural refinement of the skin texture under the eyes.

The area around the eyes can react sensitively to minor stimuli or color changes. Therefore, a comprehensive approach considering the depth of each lesion and the surrounding skin texture is essential to ensure adequate treatment without excess.

Beyond the central part of the lesion, we consider a natural blending with the surrounding skin, performing the treatment so that the bumpy skin texture under the eyes is smoothly refined.

6. Soothing Care Using Jaungo Modeling Pack

The periorbital area has a sensitive characteristic, prone to redness or a sensation of heat even with minor thermal stimulation.

Immediately after Agnes treatment, a Jaungo modeling pack is applied to help soothe the skin.

This is a post-treatment care process designed to quickly alleviate any thermal stimulation that may occur and help the skin under the eyes recover comfortably.

Provision of post-treatment soothing care using Jaungo modeling pack

To help manage sebaceous gland issues, we can use devices like Potenza RF, Elysion RF, and Agnes.

For the hygiene and safety of our patients, we only use sterilized, individually packaged tips.

This treatment may be beneficial for individuals experiencing the following skin concerns.

Those with bumpy under-eye skin that resembles goosebumps.

Those who thought they had milia but find that nothing comes out even after attempted extraction.

Those who attempted to remove what they thought were milia, but the bumps persist.

Those whose under-eye skin texture is not smooth, making makeup appear uneven.

Those who notice multiple small bumps that are skin-colored or yellowish.

Those concerned about potential scarring or pigmentation after treatment on the sensitive under-eye area.

Those who are looking for a more active approach than topical medications or general skincare routines.

Individuals who experience recurrent bumpy lesions in the same area.

Those who require an accurate diagnosis to determine whether their symptoms are syringoma, milia, or sebaceous hyperplasia.

Treatment Process

STEP 01. Personalized Consultation

We assess if the bumpy lesions under your eyes are sebaceous hyperplasia and carefully examine their size and distribution.

STEP 02. Preparation of the Treatment Area

After thoroughly cleansing the under-eye skin, we precisely plan the areas that need treatment.

STEP 03. Application of Anesthetic Cream

To minimize any discomfort in the sensitive under-eye area, we apply a topical anesthetic.

STEP 04. Agnes Treatment

Considering the location and depth of your sebaceous glands, we adjust the needle depth and radiofrequency energy output. This allows us to precisely target the problematic glands.

STEP 05. Soothing Care with Jaungo Modeling Mask

To soothe any post-treatment heat sensation or redness, we apply a Jaungo modeling mask as a finishing touch.

Important Post-Treatment Instructions

ㆍRedness, swelling, or warmth may occur after treatment, but these symptoms usually subside naturally over time.

ㆍTiny scabs may form under the eyes. Do not remove them forcibly; allow them to fall off naturally.

ㆍOn the day of treatment, avoid rubbing or pressing the area around the eyes.

ㆍWhen washing your face, cleanse the treated area gently with light touches.

ㆍResume eye makeup such as eyeshadow or concealer only after the treated area has sufficiently recovered and stabilized.

ㆍAvoid saunas, hot baths, swimming, alcohol, and smoking for about one week after treatment.

ㆍUse sunscreen carefully when outdoors and keep the area well moisturized.

ㆍDepending on your skin condition, temporary breakouts, itching, or redness may occur.

ㆍIf discomfort persists, please contact our clinic.

ㆍDepending on individual skin condition and response, sebaceous hyperplasia may require multiple treatments.
