What Is a Laser Eyelid Lift?

A laser eyelid lift, sometimes called laser blepharoplasty or laser eye lift, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses focused light energy to tighten and revitalise the skin of the upper and lower eyelids. Unlike surgical blepharoplasty, no incisions or stitches are required. Instead, controlled laser pulses gently heat the deeper layers of skin, promoting collagen contraction and new collagen production. This leads to firmer, smoother skin and a subtle lifting effect that brightens the eyes and reduces the appearance of fatigue.

How Does Laser Eyelid Lift Work?

Fotona SmoothEye (Non‑Ablative Er:YAG Laser)

Fotona SmoothEye is an advanced non‑ablative Er:YAG laser treatment that delivers precise, controlled heat to the periocular region. The laser energy penetrates the skin without vaporising the surface, stimulating collagen remodelling and tightening loose tissues. It can be used on the upper and lower eyelids and even inside the lower lid when appropriate. Sessions typically last 15–30 minutes, and a series of three to six treatments spaced several weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. With no incisions or needles, discomfort is minimal and downtime is limited to mild redness or swelling that resolves within a day or two.

Fraxel Fractional Laser Resurfacing

Fraxel Fractional laser resurfacing and CO₂ or Erbium lasers remove microscopic columns of skin, triggering a healing response that leads to smoother, tighter skin. By targeting only a fraction of the tissue at a time, this technique promotes rapid healing while reducing the risk of scarring. Fractional treatments can effectively reduce fine lines, crepey skin and pigmentation around the eyes. Sessions may require 30–60 minutes, and downtime ranges from several days to a week depending on the intensity of the treatment. Protective eyewear and topical anaesthesia are essential to ensure safety and comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Non-Surgical Laser Eyelid Lift?

A Non-Surgical Laser Eyelid Lift is a cosmetic procedure that uses CO₂ and Fraxel laser technology to rejuvenate the eyelids without incisions or surgery. It tightens and smooths the eyelid skin by stimulating collagen production, improving drooping, wrinkles, and puffiness around the eyes.
Ideal candidates are individuals with mild to moderate eyelid sagging, fine lines, wrinkles, or puffiness who prefer a non-invasive treatment. It suits those who are not yet requiring surgery and those seeking minimal downtime with noticeable, natural-looking improvements.
The procedure works by delivering precise laser energy (CO₂ and Fraxel) into targeted areas of eyelid skin, creating microscopic thermal zones. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, which tightens the skin, reduces wrinkles, sagging, and puffiness, resulting in a refreshed, youthful eye appearance.
Before your treatment, avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least two weeks to reduce the risk of pigment changes. Discontinue blood‑thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen) and supplements like vitamin E and fish oil one week beforehand, unless advised otherwise by your doctor. Stop using retinoids and exfoliating agents a few days prior. Arrive with clean skin free of makeup and jewellery, and bring protective sunglasses. Please inform us of any history of cold sores or eye conditions. Pregnant or nursing women should postpone treatment.
Your laser eyelid lift at Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre begins with a personalized consultation to assess your concerns and determine the appropriate laser technology. On the day of treatment, your skin is thoroughly cleansed, and a numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort. The laser device is then used to precisely target the upper and/or lower eyelids, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin. The session typically lasts 30–60 minutes, depending on the area treated and the technology used. Most patients experience only mild discomfort, and you can return home the same day.
