Can the Halo be performed under the eyebrow as well, for hooded eyes?

It all depends on your degree of skin issues and skin type. Posting photos will get you better results and an in patient consultation is best of all.Properly trained physicians can insert special laser eye contact lenses (don't worry, it doesn't hurt!) allowing the entire eyelid to the lashes and Halo can even be used for sun damage within the brow without hurting hair growth.Halo alone can be done from very light to quite dense: light improves crepiness and fine lines, dense gives some tightening and more wrinkle improvementTRL (full field) resurfacing has about 10-14 days downtime and gives more lift and tightening and can improve some degree of hoodingHalo and TRL can blend in one session for an intermediate result Laser can be done in customized patterns over the eyebrows to get a bit of brow lift which also improves hooding.If you have a lot of hooding though, your best best is a surgical blepharoplasty or 'eye'job'.For either, when working around the eyes, make sure that you are being treated by a very experienced physician, PA, NP or highly trained nurse to avoid complications and get your best result.

Usually if someone has extra skin and hooded eyes, they will not get the correction they want with the downtime and cost they are willing to spend without surgery. Lasers like Halo are great for total face resurfacing and improving the quality and texture of the skin. They cannot, in my opinion, deliver the results that an upper blepharoplasty or eyelid lift can for the eyes. The downtime and pain is very similar, cost may be different but a Halo treatment that doesn't work for the eyelids may cost you that and the cost of surgery. Best, Dr. Ali

The Sciton Halo laser can be used under the eyebrow for skin improvement but will not really correct a hooded upper eyelid. For mild upper eyelid skin excess the Sciton TRL (tunable resurfacing laser - a full field erbium laser) will give improvement but for more severe hooding a surgical blepharoplasty is required
