Abstract:
:Cosmetic eyelid surgery has benefited from the use of the carbon dioxide laser. The short pulsed laser cuts through tissue with limited surrounding thermal damage, resulting in incisions that heal with minimal scarring comparable to traditional cold steel methods. The laser provides excellent hemostasis, which shortens surgical time, and lessens postoperative bruising and swelling.
