Non-surgical resurfacing for crepey or hooded upper lids — tightening the skin itself rather than removing it.
CO2 fractional laser on the upper eyelids resurfaces crepey, loose-looking skin, stimulating collagen so the lid tightens as it heals. It is the non-surgical route for people who do not want, or are not ready for, a blepharoplasty.
It has limits, and we will be straightforward about them. Laser tightens skin; it does not remove it. If your hooding is substantial, surgery may be the honest answer and we will say so rather than take a booking that will disappoint you.
CO2 laser is one of the more involved treatments we offer. Downtime is expected — expect redness, swelling and flaking while the skin recovers — and a course may be recommended depending on your concern. We will be specific about both at your consultation rather than after you have booked.
Welcoming clients from Lichfield, Sutton Coldfield, Four Oaks, Mere Green and Little Aston.

Redness, swelling and flaking while the skin heals. Tightening builds over the following weeks.
For mild to moderate crepiness, it can be. Laser tightens skin rather than removing it, so if your hooding is substantial we will tell you that surgery is the treatment that addresses it.
Expect redness, swelling and flaking. The eyelid area often swells more visibly than elsewhere for the first day or two.
A course may be recommended. We will be specific at consultation.
