Laser Resurfacing or Pinch Excision for Loose Skin on Eyelids?

Nochecita
I have consulted with two surgeons, and they both agree that a transcutaneous lower eyelid surgery is not indicated in my case because of the shape of my eyes, and the resulting risk of lower lid drooping, thus revealing too much sclera. As such, the recommendation is transconjunctival; however, there is concern about loose skin. Which approach will be better between Laser resurfacing and pinch excision?
