Q: Discolouration And Problems Resulting From Laser Treatement

Hi,

where to start...Well several months ago I had a very bad black-eye. There was a small area where it never properly healed and my doctor recommended getting laser therapy to clear up the remaining discolouration. I went and got this done but the following has occurred -

1) there is a large red stripe now where the original discolouration is, I woke up a week after the treatment and it had appeared on my face. It has now been there for a week.

2) the bags of my eyes do not match anymore. On the affected eye the bags look much less prominent.

Anyways I was wondering if anyone here knows much about the laser procedure, and what advice or information they could give me here. Specifically what is exactly involved and will the two problems above clear up.

Thanks.

Sorry to hear you had problems in the outcome of your laser surgery. How long has it been since you were experiencing these side effects? Have you considered that it might be part of the healing process? In the meantime you can check out a nice product to help the baggy eyes called hylexin. That might decrease some of the darkness under the eyes until you can get an explanation from the doctor as to what is going on. Good luck with this issue!
