Does the halo laser help with festoons?

Thank you for your question.  The halo laser is a wonderful procedure, that we will help with the texture of your skin, help brighten the skin, and help with pigment irregularities.  It certainly can help the appearance of festoons.  However, I would not necessarily say that this would be the first treatment.  Lower eyelid festoons most often are best treated with a lower blepharoplasty, with a Halo treatment either before or after.
I would consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon who specializes in facial rejuvenation.  Here you will have a full evaluation and be able to discuss your goals.
I hope that this helps!

Halo laser helps improve facial skin but will not completely correct festoons.  I would consult with a board certified plastic surgeon regarding the festoons as well, as you may benefit from a combination of therapies and sometimes surgery is indicated for festoons.  HALO is a very elegant effective laser that will improve the quality and texture of the skin

Great question! Very aggressive Halo (higher settings, more downtime) can help with moderate festoons, especially in lighter skin types. It causes skin thickening as well as greater elasticity / 'snap' as your skin grows more collagen. If you go this route, you will likely look worse before you look better as Halo can also cause swelling around the eyes for the first few weeks - antihistamines help.Festoons get their best improvement with either deep, full-field laser resurfacing (not fractional) or a blepharoplasty.
