I was diagnosed with mild Rosacea 3 years ago. After being on a low-dosage Isotretinoin for 9 months my skin stabilised. I have some sun damage and brown spots/patches, I have several broken capillaries around my nose, my pores are enlarged and skin looks rough. I am currently using Obagi Nu derm with Tretinoin 0.05 which seems to even out the skin tone but I would like to get treatment for the redness and roughness. Which is safest: Sciton BBL or Pulsed Dye Laser?
Pulse dye lasers or IPL treatments are great choices for your condition. Keep in mind that multiple treatments are usually recommended for optimal results. I like telling my patients that, on average, they will need 3 to 5 treaments, usually 2 to 4 weeks apart.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

I'm 42 and about to undergo laser resurfacing of my lower eyelids to improve some crepiness of the skin. My surgeon uses the eCO2 laser,which brings me to my question. I've read a few posts from patients expressing concern that this particular laser caused damage to their Malar Bags.Is this a complication that is more likely with a full face resurfacing procedure,or is it a complication to be concerned about at all? Looking for a clarification on the topic.
If you have malar bags under your lower eyelids, you may likely need surgery to remove or reposition the fat in order to improve the contour. If you also have excess skin, some of the skin may also need to be removed. A laser can help tighten the skin of this area and can work-if you only have some mild loose skin. Sometimes the combination of laser and surgery is the best approach. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon for more information on this topic.
Best wishes,

I'm a 30-year-old female with fair, slightly freckled skin. I have been very unhappy with the skin around my eyes lately: it is puffy above the eye and slightly droopier on one side, and below the eye, the skin puffs up when I smile and there are some wrinkles forming. Are eye/eyebrow lifts the only ways to solve the eyelid problem? The botox did nothing. Perhaps I didn't get enough? I have been recommended laser resurfacing for under-eye wrinkles. Will this work?
The photos provided show excess skin of the lower eyelids that can easilly be removed with a lower lid skin pinch. The upper eyelids are quite full and both eyebrows are low in position. A Brow Lift would be required to raise the eyebrows, into the proper aesthetic position, which would decrease the upper eyelid fullness. At 30 years of age, it's unlikley that much, of the observed upper eyelid fullness, is really excess upper eyelid skin which typically appears later in life. For this reason, the Brow Lift may very well eliminate all the excess upper eyelid fullness.
