Is there any way to treat malar festoons? They're really noticeable on my cheekbones now. I'm curious about different laser treatment options, especially CO2 laser resurfacing. I've heard it's pretty effective. Could you also let me know about the costs involved?

Malar festoons can be treated with CO2 laser resurfacing. This treatment is known to be very effective in reducing the appearance of malar festoons. The cost of CO2 laser resurfacing can vary depending on the location and the provider, but it typically ranges from $2000 to $4000 per session. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.
