What It Is
The CO₂ Eyelid Lift is a non-surgical alternative to blepharoplasty, using fractional CO₂ laser technology to tighten and rejuvenate the delicate skin around the eyes. It effectively addresses hooded eyelids, undereye bags, and periorbital wrinkles.
Who It's For
Patients experiencing early to moderate eyelid laxity, undereye wrinkles, periorbital pigmentation, or those seeking a surgical alternative for eye area rejuvenation.
Key Benefit
Achieves visible eyelid lifting and skin tightening without surgery, general anesthesia, or significant recovery time.
How It Works
Specially calibrated CO₂ laser parameters are used for the delicate periorbital area, triggering immediate collagen contraction and long-term new collagen synthesis for a lifted, rejuvenated appearance.
1
Ultra-precise fractional CO₂ energy targets the ultra-thin eyelid skin with calibrated depth control.
2
Thermal stimulation initiates collagen contraction for immediate tightening and long-term remodeling.
3
Specialized protective eye shields guard the cornea and lens throughout treatment.
Areas Treated
Upper eyelids
Lower eyelids
Undereye area
Crow's feet
Periorbital wrinkles
Brow area
Comfort Level
20–30 minutes for the periorbital area
Treatment Process
Consultation
Thorough eye health assessment and photography for comparison. Dr. Eskandari evaluates degree of laxity and designs a customized treatment plan.
Treatment Process
Protective eye shields are placed. Topical anesthetic is applied. The laser is precisely applied to the eyelid area in a controlled pattern, followed by post-treatment soothing care.
Comfort Level
Minimal discomfort with topical anesthetic. Protective shields ensure complete eye safety. Mild swelling resolves within 2–5 days.
Expected Results
Understanding potential reactions and ensuring safe, informed treatment.
Outcomes
Visibly tighter, lifted eyelids, reduced undereye puffiness, smoother periorbital skin.
Timeline
Initial results visible after swelling resolves (3–5 days); full results at 3–6 months as collagen remodels.
Longevity
Results typically last 2–3 years; maintenance treatments can extend and enhance longevity.
Risk & Side Effects
Understanding potential reactions and ensuring safe, informed treatment.
Temporary swelling and redness around the eye area, typically resolving within 5 days
Sensitivity and mild dryness of the periorbital skin during healing
Eye shields prevent any direct risk to the eyes during treatment
Safety Note
Protective corneal shields are always used. Treatment is only performed by trained professionals with specific experience in periorbital laser treatments.
