What is the best treatment for under eye wrinkles? It is the one that delivers the best results, of course, but there’s more to it than that. It also has to fit your preferences for comfort, downtime, budget, invasiveness and more.
Most nonsurgical procedures come with the advantage of no downtime. In the case of TempSure Envi, it also requires no needles, incisions, or anesthesia, and it produces excellent results. Let’s explore whether you might benefit from the treatment, how it works, and what you can expect.

Candidates for Eye Wrinkle Treatment
Eye wrinkles are about as universal as birthdays; we will all have more of them as time goes on. If you’ve noticed sagging, loose, or crepey skin or wrinkles forming under your eyes, you’re likely a candidate. TempSure Envi gently revives skin’s firmness and natural beauty, making it an ideal initial approach as an under eye sagging treatment.
What TempSure Envi Does
Since TempSure Envi is both nonsurgical and noninvasive—meaning it does not pierce the skin—it relies on radiofrequency (RF) energy to achieve results. We begin the treatment session by applying a gel to the under eye area. This ensures a comfortable experience as the device glides across the skin, massaging in circular motions to deliver radiofrequency energy.
Patients report feeling relaxed and comfortable during treatment, but more is happening under the surface of the skin. Radiofrequency energy encounters natural resistance where the dermal and subdermal layers meet, raising the temperature in the area.
TempSure Envi modulates this temperature increase, keeping it in a target range of 40 C to 42 C (or 104 F to 108 F). Raising the internal temperature to that range stimulates collagen production, which firms and tightens your skin, ultimately leading to a reduction of wrinkles and sagging skin.
Can You Combine It With Other Options?
Yes, TempSure Envi is often combined with other nonsurgical treatments, such as dermal fillers and BOTOX® Cosmetic, for comprehensive rejuvenation.
Your Timeline for Results
Individual results vary, but here is an outline of what you can expect after a TempSure Envi treatment session.
- You can immediately return to your normal activities and go about your day. There is no downtime.
- After 2 to 3 days, you may notice that facial wrinkles in the treatment area are less visible, but the best results will emerge over the coming days.
- By the 7- to 10-day mark after treatment, your skin has begun the work of rebuilding. Your body has sent fibroblasts (cells that support connective tissue formation) to the treatment area, and they’ve started to synthesize new collagen and elastin.
- By 25 to 30 days post-treatment, new collagen fibers form, firming and tightening the skin and decreasing fine lines and wrinkles.
