Fractionated CO2 for Eyelids
In addition to the incredible Fractionated CO2 lasers results for the face, I have achieved excellent results for my patients using the laser in the periorbital areas including crow's feet and upper eyelids as well. We use the Lumenis UltraPulse system which is highly versatile and powerful to get specialized results such as these. Skin is tightened, lines are mimimized all with the diminished downtime of fractionation. I even did this on my wife! I also combine long term Neurotoxin...

Wrinkles around your eyes
The carbon dioxide laser is still the Gold Standard for the treatment of facial Wrinkles. Treatments vary according to whether the beam is "fractioned" into small pulses spread apart or scanned across the surface. When broken up into small dots you get less result in return for less time for healting. When scanned across your skin, you get more result and more time for healting.The two options are available to suit the needs of the individual patient. A busy business person may...

CO2 is best for wrinkles, give fractional a try for shorter downtime!
It is well proven that the carbon dioxide laser is the best for wrinkles and skin tightening, but as others have pointed out, the "downtime" is often too much for busy Americans to handle. The fractional CO2 works unbelievably well around the eyes, and depending on how aggressive I am with the treatment, the recovery can vary from 4 days to 2 weeks. I use the Smartxide DOT Therapy and have been thrilled with the results.

Lasers for eyelid lines, creases, wrinkles and rejuvenation
The gold standard for skin rejuvenation with a laser for the best result with one treatment is the carbon dioxide (CO2) laser, non-fractional, ablative. This is uncommonly done because of long standing redness and a higher risks than the newer fractional ablative CO2 laser, Fraxel Repair. Remember that lines around the eyes, especially the sides (crows' feet) will return as the muscle moves and the skin creases above it. Botox is a great adjunct for this treatment. Fraxel...

Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing best for eyelid wrinkles
Almost everyone who is concerned about eyelid, periorbital wrinkles would benefit from Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing. However, a comprehensive approach must be considered to achieve the best cosmetic outcome. Often times, Botox or Dysport may be needed to minimze dynamic wrinkles brought on my involuntary contraction of orbicularis oculi muscles. In addition, hyaluronic acid fillers may be injected to provide volume and minmize laxity along lower eyelids.

Best laser for eyelid wrinkles
There are a number of lasers that are used for eyelid resurfacing.
In my experience, eyelid resurfacing is accomplished well with fractional erbium laser. To my knowledge there is no treatment available that will perform the entire correction in one treatment session. The first treatment session is always a combination of treatment and determination how your skin responds to it, and needs to be conservative.
Overly aggressive treatment increases the risk of adverse...

Best laser for my problem
It is impossible to know which laser is best for your specific problem - in this case your eyelid wrinkles - since you haven't stated your needs and goals. For instance,Do you want to have any downtime? Do want gradual improvement or rapid improvement,? Can you tolerate a minor risk of discoloration? In addition prior history is important. Have you failed any previous procedures. .? Is there any history of keloids? In general I like the Pixel laser ( fractionated CO2)for more dramatic...

Lasers for eyelid wrinkles
To answer your question, there is really not one single laser that is best for a single area but there are lasers that are more effective for addressing certain conditions such as wrinkling, excess oil, redness, etc.
For lines around the eyes, I use the Lumenis Encore Fractional CO2 laser. Because the skin around the eyes is so delicate, I often treat twice just to be safe but am very pleased with the results so far.
My recommendation for you is to not only look...
