Tags: eyes
hello there! i had electrolysis treatment 10 months ago, and I'm left with tiny atrophic scars (very shallow), i've seen dermatologist for laser removal and she said that it is not possible or not safe to treat that area with laser and I'm very sad, becouse it's bothering me so much!
And yet I'm a little bit confused, because i've seen pictures on the internet about laser removal of wrinkles around the eyes, and I don't know why did she said that this is not possible! i can't leave it like this! please tell me what to do!!

Laser for scars around the eyes
Your problem is very common. I agree with your dermatologist. Do not do laser around the eyes for scars that have resulted from electrolysis. It will not work and there are risks associated with it.
