Will CO2 laser help remove under eye bags?

Hello and thank you for your question.  A photo would be best in order to give better direction and advice for your case, however I can give you some information on your options.  Resurfacing lasers, such as the CO2 laser, are used to improve fine lines, deep wrinkles, scarring, age or sun spots and other such superficial skin changes.   Those who complain of "under eye bags" are usually referring to one of two things; deep tear troughs from loss of volume, or fat pad herniation causing a bulge.  In either case, both can be corrected with either fillers or surgery and generally will not get much improvement from resurfacing lasers.   Fillers are injected to help replace volume loss or to camouflage the uneven appearance from the fat pad, giving a smoother transition from under eye lid to cheek.  Results from filers are temporary and can last you anywhere from 8 months to 2+ years.  If, however, you are looking for a more permanent result, surgery can be a great option. It may be a good idea to get a second opinion.  Be sure to seek an experienced facial aesthetics injector or facial plastic surgeon for best direction.  Good luck!

co2 laser is an excellent modality to improve under eye lines and skin changes known as dermatochalasis.   It will not correct under eye bags.  Often lower transconjunctival blepharoplasty from the inside of the eyelid can remove or reposition the fat and co2 laser can be performed at the same time to enhance the overall result. This is an excellent option in treating most lids and avoids an external incision and reduces the chances of eyelid malposition after conventional external blepharoplasty. 

Thank you for your question!CO2 or Erbium Laser resurfacing are excellent modalities of treatment for fine line wrinkles of the lower eyelids.  However, neither will do anything for "under eye bags".  The bags you are seeing in the mirror are actually from fat in the eye socket that have prolapsed, or protruded out past the bony rim of the eye socket (orbit).  Once they are at a higher point than the bony rim, light reflects off this higher point, and creates a shadow which looks like a dark circle below this fat.  Typically, this easily and permanently addressed with a transconjunctival lower lid blepharoplasty, in which the incision is hidden behind the eyelid.I hope this helps!
