Can laser resurfacing make under eye bags worse? I heard the after you tighten the skin the bags can be more prominent and more noticeable. My derm says will help. What is the truth?

Answer: Lasers for eyelid and eyelid bags explained Laser resurfacing will help with the fine lines and crepiness of the lower eyelid skin. It will have minimal effect on the actual bags. This should not be confused with lasers used for blepharoplasty (eyelid bag surgery) which is used as a cutting and cautery tool. One can even get a blepharoplasty with a laser to make incisions and remove bags and at the same time a laser to resurface the skin

Answer: Laser Resurfacing Under Eye While laser resurfacing will not remove under eye bags, the skin can be somewhat tightened, especially with a correctly performed treatment, and improve the overall appearance of the lid and lid-cheek regions. It does not take the place of blepharoplasty, but when performed correctly, should definitely not make things look worse.
