I saw my plastic surgeon. He said that it's too early since collagen still is forming. He also said I am dehydrated. I moisturizer 2x daily. Can I expect improvement or was this a waste of money?

Results Following CO2 Laser Under Eyes

  Hi and thank you for your question! The optimal results following CO2 laser treatment can take a couple of months to appear. However, due to the gradual nature of improvements, it might be difficult to spot them without comparing current pictures with pictures taken at baseline prior to the laser treatment. I hope it helps and good luck!
