Fibroblasting for Non-Surgical Eyelifts: Complete Guide

Fibroblasting has become one of the most sought-after non-surgical treatments for lifting and tightening the skin around the eyes. For clients exploring alternatives to eyelid surgery, it offers a way to achieve a noticeably fresher look using plasma technology—without incisions or extended downtime.

Here’s everything you need to know before booking your treatment.

What is Fibroblasting?

Fibroblasting is a cutting-edge cosmetic treatment that uses a plasma pen to deliver tiny arcs of energy to the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing process, triggering collagen production and skin tightening. It’s a safe, non-surgical option for skin rejuvenation—especially around the delicate eye area.

If you’re looking for a non-invasive way to address eyelid sagging or drooping, our plasma fibroblast service in Hornsby offers noticeable results without going under the knife.

How It Lifts the Eyelids

During treatment, the plasma pen creates a series of small, controlled “dots” along the upper or lower eyelids. These dots cause the skin tissue to contract and tighten immediately while also kickstarting a longer-term regeneration process.

This leads to a lifted, firmer appearance thanks to collagen retraction and dermal remodelling—without cutting the skin.

Who Is It For?

Fibroblasting is best suited for those with mild to moderate concerns such as:

• Hooded eyelids
• Early-stage drooping
• Fine lines around the eyes

It’s not recommended for those with severe ptosis (significant eyelid droop), but is ideal for clients seeking an alternative to surgical blepharoplasty. We always conduct a detailed skin assessment at our Hornsby clinic to ensure the treatment is right for you.

The Treatment Experience

Before the session, a numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort. The procedure typically takes around 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Most clients describe the sensation as a slight heat or mild tingling.

After the session, you’ll notice small crusts where the plasma dots were applied. These are a normal part of the healing process and usually fall off within a week.

• We’ll guide you through aftercare, which includes:
• Using cooling packs for swelling
• Applying vitamin-rich creams
• Avoiding sun exposure and active skincare products for a few days

Results & Timeline

Many clients see an immediate tightening effect after their session. However, full results continue to develop over the following 4 to 8 weeks as collagen rebuilds and the skin lifts.

Results typically last around 2 to 3 years, depending on skin type, age, and lifestyle. For a more detailed breakdown of downtime, healing phases, and what to expect day by day, read our dedicated guide on recovery time after fibroblasting.

Risks & Contraindications

Like any cosmetic procedure, fibroblasting has a few temporary side effects, including:

• Swelling (particularly around the eyes)
• Crusting or scabbing
• Light redness or pigmentation that resolves over time

You should avoid this treatment if you:

• Are pregnant or breastfeeding
• Have active eczema, dermatitis, or skin infections
• Are prone to keloid scarring

We always do a full consultation to determine suitability and avoid risks.

What Else Can Fibroblasting Treat?

Fibroblast treatments are a revolutionary non-surgical lift procedure that drastically reduces wrinkles. These are other conditions that fibroblasting can treat:

• Acne Scarring
• Glabella Lines (between eyebrows)
• Perioral Lines
• Crow’s Feet
• Eyelid Tightening
• Pigmentation/Age Spots
• Smokers/ Lip Lines
• Tattoo Fading
• Skin Tags
• Cheek Wrinkles
• Necklines

How Fibroblast Treatments Work

Fibroblast creates a plasma flash to stimulate tighter skin fibres, increased collagen and elastin.

The principal is to ionise gases in the air to create a small electrical arc – similar to a tiny lightning bolt – with which dermal and epidermal areas affected with wrinkles can be treated without spreading heat to unwanted areas. This simulates instant contraction, which you can see in the photos straight after each treatment. It shortens and tightens the skin fibres, resulting in a reduction of the skin surface.

Most types of skin resurfacing treatments are based on the idea of damaging the skin in a controlled manner, triggering the healing response, which leads to skin remodelling and improvement in various signs of aging. Fibroblast works the same way but with some interesting twists.

Fibroblast is a non-invasive treatment that does not require cuts to the skin or any stitching. Patients report experiencing either no pain at all or only temporary minimal discomfort.
