Eyelash Lengthener

Lush eyelashes are the ultimate fashion statement. Youthful, flirty, and sexy, it’s no wonder that for women, mascara is the most used cosmetic product. But it can be tiring to put on everyday, making sure it’s clump and smudge free. Gunky lashes are a definite turn off, but how else can you get that long and thick fringe?
Don’t go for the falsies. Try MD Lash Factor, an eyelash conditioner that has proven to make the appearance of your eyelashes thicker, lusher and fuller. A lit bit on the eyelash line once a day, and you’ll have beautiful lashes in a month.
MD Lash Factor is available now at Toronto Cosmetic Clinic. Drop by or order online to purchase.
A Little History
Blepharoplasty has been around for a long time. In fact, surgical treatment of the eyelids has been around since Ancient Rome. In the first century, there are records of surgery performed by the Roman, Aulus Cornelius Celus, who attempted to relax the upper eyelids.
Today, blepharoplasty is the technical term for surgery targeting defects of the eyelids, whether it be cosmetic or functional. Excesses of fat or muscle may also be targeted, as long as they are related to the appearance or functionality of the eyelids.
What Eyelid Surgery Can’t Do
Eyelid surgery is designed for sagging around the eyes and droopy eyelids. It can also create a “double eyelid” (a crease in the upper eyelid). However, blepharoplasty does not correct the following problems:
crow’s feet
dark rings around the eyes
sagging around the eyebrows.
These problems are better treated with other cosmetic procedures. Crow’s feet can be treated with Botox and sagging around the eyebrows can be treated with a forehead lift. Unfortunately, dark rings around the eyes from pigmentation is a difficult problem to correct. Some physicians suggest a chemical peel.
Whatever the problem, always seek the advice of a medical professional before deciding on the course of treatment.
