Duke Eye Center offers laser cosmetic surgery with the latest fractional CO2 lasers to reduce facial wrinkles, acne scars, sun-damage blemishes, and dark circles under the eyes.
Cosmetic laser eye procedures tighten the skin, smooth the surface, and provide a more youthful appearance. The effects are more dramatic than chemical peels. The laser stimulates growth of new collagen that reverses the skin’s aging process.
Treatment usually takes 20 to 60 minutes, depending on what areas of the face are resurfaced. This new type of laser allows for more rapid healing than older CO2 lasers. Patients can often return to their normal activities in less than one week.

The laser can apply a very light treatment allowing for a five-day recovery, or a deeper treatment for more result and an eight-day recovery period.
The skin will be slightly pink for a few weeks after the procedure. The patient may wear makeup after five-to-eight days.
