Skin Tightening Laser Procedure in Mouth and Eye Areas?

I am considering some laser surgery in the face to tighten skin around the mouth and under the eyes; but I have received mixed information from 2 doctors. One says it does not work and another says it does. I had some allergy to Restylane before, so a filler is not an option. Is laser the answer before a surgery, which is too drastic right now?

A: CO2 laser for wrinkles around the eyes and the mouth

The newer fractional CO2 lasers can offer a nice improvement in the appearance of the fine lines around your eyes and your mouth. Remember that skin resurfacing such as a fractional CO2 laser is not the same as surgery and often times they are not interchangeable. What this means is that they can treat two different things.  The laser is excellent for the very fine lines and wrinkles, where surgery such as a facelift treats the drooping jowels and the hanging neck.  Consult with a qualified physician with experience in all of these modes of treatment in order to get a better idea as to what is best for you.
