Post under eye laser resurfacting

It has been four months since I had laser resurfacing under my eyes. The area is still red and sore. How long should it take to heal?

Sorry for your experience. Did you use erbium or co2 laser? What nationality or race are you? Please don't say erbium.........Thanks.

I am caucasion, and I don't know which type of laser was used. I'll call my doctor and find out. I'll let you know.

Hi. I had laser under my eyes in 1997, when lasers were first becoming widely used. I still have some residual redness right at the place where the lasering stopped (bottom of eye area above my cheeks). At one point, the plastic surgeon offered me some sort of ointment to reduce this redness and I regret that I didn't accept it. It is easily covered with makeup so it doesn't really bother me, but you should at least check with your doctor to see if anything can be done before more time goes by.

PS - I had a lot of wrinkles under my eyes in 1997 before the resurfacing and they have never come back!
