Fraxel is unlikely to cause dermatitis around the eyes and mouth. Typically this condition can be treated with oral anti-antibiotics and topical rosacea.
Fraxel® laser can thicken the under eye skin, so if your under eye darkness is because the skin is thinning and the under eye dark blood vessels are showing through, then Fraxel® should help. Depending on your individual eye area, the number and frequency of maintenance treatments.
Thank you for your question. It would be best to pre treat with Valtrex or Lysine to prevent any breakout. Sometimes heat or stress can trigger cold sore breakout. I hope this helps!
