Most patients experience significant improvement in the appearance of skin imperfections, including smoother skin, reduced sunspots, and diminished acne scars. The collagen remodeling triggered by fractional CO2 laser treatments also helps tighten loose skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing is a highly effective and non-invasive procedure that belongs to the family of Fractional Laser technologies. Designed to treat a wide range of skin imperfections, this treatment is ideal for addressing acne scars, sun damage, age spots, and deeper wrinkles. This advanced laser technology utilizes fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) to remove damaged skin cells and stimulate collagen production.
During the treatment, a specialized laser delivers beams of light in columns, targeting the superficial and deeper layers of the skin. These microscopic columns of laser energy create controlled injuries, encouraging the skin’s natural healing process while stimulating collagen growth. This results in smoother, tighter skin with improved texture and tone.
Fractional CO2 laser is known for its effectiveness in addressing various skin concerns, including uneven pigmentation, acne scarring, and the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles. The procedure is suitable for all skin types, though individuals with darker skin tones may require customized treatment plans to ensure safety and minimize risks like scarring.
During your consultation, one of our experienced providers will assess your skin type, medical history, and skin concerns to develop a tailored treatment plan. This ensures that your fractional CO2 laser treatment is both effective and safe.
The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the treatment area. While some numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort, patients may feel mild heat or tingling during the treatment. A cooling device or ice pack may be used to further enhance comfort.
CO2 Laser is a deep acting treatment that will require some recovery time while your skin heals. Patients usually report a mild sunburn-like sensation immediately following treatment. Within 2-5 days, your skin will begin peeling, revealing new skin underneath. Most patients report full recovery taking 7-10 days with the potential for mild redness. It’s essential to follow aftercare instructions, including the use of broad-spectrum sunscreen, to protect your skin and promote healing.
The cost of fractional CO2 laser resurfacing depends on the size of the treatment area and the number of sessions required. For an accurate estimate, we recommend scheduling a consultation with one of our expert providers.
Post-treatment results begin to appear as your skin heals, with significant improvements in texture and tone within 2-4 weeks. The full effects of the fractional CO2 laser resurfacing treatment will be visible after several months, as collagen production continues. To maintain results, regular follow-up treatments are recommended. Your provider will guide you on a maintenance schedule suited to your skin type and goals.
Active Infections: If you have an active infection, such as cold sores or bacterial infections, the treatment may need to be postponed. Pregnancy or Breastfeeding: Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should avoid this treatment. Certain Medical Conditions: Individuals with autoimmune diseases or a history of keloid scarring should consult with their healthcare provider before proceeding.
