Non-surgical treatments for lower eyelid

Otto Joseph Placik, MD answers: Laser resurfacing or non-surgical procedures to tighten under eye area?

I had upper eyelid surgery about 4 years ago and fat removal and laser resurfacing as well. I would like to further tighten the skin under my eyes. Can I do that with more laser resurfacing or other non-surgical techniues? I prefer not to be under anesthesia again.

Yes, laser resurfacing may be useful and/or skin peels.

Fillers to the tear trough may also be used to soften the deep groove between your eyelid and cheek which may help to give the illusion of a tighter lower lid.
