CO2 laser treatment at Festoon (malar mound)

The skin around the eyes is one of the first places where signs of aging become visible. Festoons and puffiness are common problems that are often perceived as bothersome. Fortunately, CO2 laser treatment offers an effective solution to reduce these signs of aging.

What are Festoons?

Festoons are swellings under the eyes that are often confused with puffiness. While puffiness usually results from fluid accumulation or fat, festoons result from a combination of loose skin, muscle weakness and fat displacement. Both conditions can cause a tired appearance and affect self-confidence.

How does CO2 Laser treatment work?

A CO2 laser treatment uses fractionated laser energy to rejuvenate the skin. The laser removes the top layer of skin and stimulates collagen production, leading to tighter and smoother-looking skin. This makes the treatment ideal for addressing both festoons but also puffiness or dark circles.
