We often hear this complaint in our office: “I am not ready for eyelid surgery but have noticed slight aging changes in the skin around my eyelids, so what alternatives are there to freshen up my look?”
Fraxel non-ablative laser resurfacing is an excellent option for patients who would like to achieve a renewed look without surgical intervention.
Fraxel is FDA approved for skin resurfacing and for treatment of melasma, periorbital (eyelid) wrinkles, and acne scars. The treatments are done in two week intervals, with a total of 4 sessions indicated for best results.
Topical anesthetic is used to numb the eyelids before they are treated with a special treatment tip designed by Fraxel made specifically for this application. The eyelid tissue will heal within 2-3 days.
We’re still running specials for Fraxel through the end of summer – contact us for details and pricing information.
