CO2 Laser Resurfacing Around Eyes
The Best Non-Surgical Fix for Fine Lines and Eye Bags
Why CO2 Laser Resurfacing Around Eyes Is a Game-Changer
The skin around the eyes is incredibly delicate up to 10 times thinner than the rest of your facial skin. Because it has less collagen and fat, and even fewer oil glands, it's more vulnerable to sun damage, pollution, and the natural breakdown of collagen and elastin.
This area also never rests: blinking, squinting, and making expressions mean constant movement, which leads to both dynamic lines (wrinkles from motion) and static wrinkles (those that remain even when your face is still). Effective treatment needs both strength and precision to protect such a fragile zone.
Blepharoplasty, the traditional eyelid surgery, removes excess skin and fat to smooth droopy or puffy lids. But it does not address issues like pigmentation, crepey texture, or fine surface lines.
This is where fractional CO2 laser resurfacing, like Lumenis, shine.It precisely targets thin, damaged skin around the eyes to:
-
Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
-
Improve pigmentation and texture
-
Stimulate collagen repair and regeneration
The CO2 Resurfacing system offers multiple fractional modes to adapt treatment depth while minimizing heat, discomfort, and downtime Recovery is often faster than with traditional CO2 lasers, yet results are significant, often noticeable after just one session.
A Closer Look at Eye-Area Laser Rejuvenation
Our CO 2laser system represents the cutting edge of fractional ablative CO2 technology. It delivers ultra-short, high‑energy pulses deep into the skin, vaporizing damaged tissue while triggering the formation of new collagen. The result: firmer, smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
Key features include:
-
Extreme precision with deep impact: Using our machine can reach up to 3.5–4 mm depth in a single pulse, ideal for treating deep wrinkles or thick scars,
-
Ultra‑short pulse durations and exceptional ablation/coagulation ratio: These features minimize excess heat, reducing collateral tissue damage, discomfort, and downtime.
-
Advanced scanning and cooling technologies: improves comfort by limiting thermal buildup, while delivers a blended scan pattern to avoid visible demarcations
-
User‑friendly interface
In summary, or system combines depth‑capable power with refined control. It precisely eliminates damaged skin, encourages collagen growth, and transforms texture and tone—often with dramatic results after just one session.
