What is TempSure Envi?
TempSure Envi is a safe, non-surgical radio-frequency (RF) laser treatment that treats dry eyes, fine lines and wrinkles. After treatment patient gets rid of dry eye and discomfort in the eye area. Additionally, it treats “baggy eyes” and wrinkles and provides a smoother, healthier-looking appearance.
How Does Dry Eye Clinic Work?
By delivering radiofrequency to heat your skin gently, TempSure increases your skin temperature for a prescribed period of time. This heat triggers the body’s natural reaction to produce new collagen. These new collagen fibers are tighter and denser.
As a result, excess skin in the lower or upper eyelid is reduced and you can say goodbye to fine lines, skin tags, spider veins, and cherry-red spots. If you are suffering from dry eye disease, Envi stimulates clogged tear glands and revives an optimal surface for the eye. After your treatment, we will provide recommendations and supplements for you to improve the quality of their tears further reducing recurrences of dry eye symptoms.
What To Expect?
When you come in for dry eye treatment consultation, One of the doctors from Hickey Optometry will discuss the eye condition and create a custom treatment plan for you, including a complete plan before and after visits.
The benefit of TempSure is that it is a painless procedure with no downtime. During the process, the technician guides you about the simple steps of the method. You will experience a gentle warming sensation around the target area. Your appointment may last between 20 to 50 minutes, and you can go right back to your usual activities when you are finished.
When will I see results?
After the treatment, you see some redness, which goes away quickly. You will see the immediate result after a few hours of first treatment. You feel a natural glow and “tighter” feeling skin. The best part is collagen will continue to rebuild, enhancing your skin appearance over time.
At least 4-5 sessions are usually recommended. The optimum number of treatments can vary depending on age and skin type.

What should I avoid on the day of treatment?
On the day of your treatment, you should avoid cosmetics, facials or lotion, particularly oil-based formulas, as they might influence how RF waves contact the skin.
How long do the results remain?
TempSure’s results can appear after just a single treatment and continue working on before long. Your doctor might suggest follow-up appointments because the new collagen fibers and your meibomian glands are still affected by your age.
