Fractora on Eye Area - 5 Months on Skin is Loose and Wrinkled

I had Fractora done around eyes 5 months ago. As soon as swelling went down I noticed skin in eye socket area was a lot looser. Now all skin that was treated seems to have lost elasticity - my skin was quite good before now it looks 10 years older, and not in a natural way. My surgeon told me that this was a normal part of healing process, that collagen gets destroyed and remodelled so it may be worse before it got better. He suggests using SmartXide to speed up healing. Is any of that right?

Hello

The procedure that will give you the best and longer lasting results would be the blepharoplasty (eyelid lift). You do have other options but it all depends on what kind of results you are looking for.
