Answer: Fraxel Thank you for your questions and photos. Looks like you have some petechia that have developed under your eyes. These are superficial bruising from your capillaries leaking due to the laser treatment. These will resolve on their own within a week and are of no concern. You can use arnica, which is an otc gel on the area which can help resolve bruising quicker.
