Why does the Madonna Lift and other similar laser treatments work so well for some, yet so horribly for others?

Fractional Co2 laser resurfacing is not eyelid surgery.  Calling it a lift does not mean that it produced enough of a difference in every one to justify the term "lift."  Many laser marketers like to confuse the public to suggest that these procedure create a result that rivals a surgical result.  Mostly this is marketing hyperbole that leads to disappointment.  Safe fractionated CO2 produces a modest improvement in skin quality and tightness but is not a surgical result.  If something seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Dear sms1175,There are probably several answers to your questionThe first is that maybe the wrong laser was usedThe second is that maybe the person undergoing the treatment was not the right candidateThe third can be that they did not get enough treatmentsSee a reputable doctor who specializes in laser treatments when you are ready, lasers are more complicated than they seem and the settings and type of laser need to be fitted to the patientBest,Nima Shemirani

The use of co2 fractional laser is nothing new and the only new concept is to use it multiple times. The result of any procedure will depend on the skills of the surgeon and patient's tissue. Laser procedures have limitations and complications happen when they used on wrong patient for wrong reason.
