CO2 FRACTIONAL LASER

CO2 fractional is revolutionized laser technology in the field of dermatology and cosmetic surgery. CO2 fractional lasers use carbon dioxide (CO2) gas as the medium for laser energy emission. These lasers are highly versatile and are utilized for a wide range of skin treatments, including skin resurfacing, scar revision, crow’s feet, sun damage, wrinkle reduction, and more.

Procedure Time: The procedure time for CO2 fractional laser treatment typically ranges from 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the size of the treatment area and the specific concerns being addressed. Larger areas or more extensive skin issues may require longer sessions.

Number of Treatments: For mild to moderate concerns such as fine lines, mild wrinkles, and uneven texture, patients may have to undergo 1 to 3 sessions scheduled several weeks apart. However, for more severe concerns such as deep wrinkles, pronounced scars, or extensive sun damage, additional sessions may be necessary to achieve desired results

Duration of Results: The duration of results from CO2 fractional laser treatment can vary depending on factors such as the individual's skin condition, lifestyle factors, and skincare routine. In general, patients can expect to see noticeable improvements in skin texture, tone, and appearance within a few weeks to months following treatment. If you consistently maintain your skincare routine and wear sunscreen, these results should last for several months to years.

BENEFITS:

CO2 fractional laser treatment offers a comprehensive solution for skin rejuvenation, boasting multiple benefits in a single procedure.

Reduced Wrinkles and Fine Lines: CO2 fractional lasers can effectively minimize the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by stimulating collagen production and promoting skin tightening.

Improved Skin Tone and Texture: The precise targeting of CO2 fractional lasers helps to resurface the skin, reducing the appearance of uneven pigmentation, sun damage, and rough texture.

Scar Reduction: CO2 fractional lasers are highly effective in reducing the appearance of scars, including acne scars, surgical scars, and traumatic scars.

Sun Damage Reversal: CO2 fractional laser treatment can help reverse the effects of sun damage on the skin, including sunspots, age spots, and uneven pigmentation. By targeting damaged skin cells and promoting cellular turnover, these lasers reveal healthier, more radiant skin.

Stimulated Collagen Production: One of the primary benefits of CO2 fractional laser treatment is its ability to stimulate the body's natural collagen production process. Increased collagen levels lead to firmer and more elastic skin

FAQs

Q1: How co2 fractional laser works

A1: CO2 fractional lasers utilize advanced carbon dioxide (CO2) technology to deliver precise, controlled microbeams of laser energy to the skin. These microbeams accelerate the formation of collagen and promote quicker healing by forming microscopic columns of treated tissue while sparing the surrounding regions.

Q2: Is CO2 fractional laser treatment painful?

A2: Patients may experience some discomfort during the procedure, but topical numbing creams or anesthesia are typically applied to minimize pain.

Q3: Can I go into the sun after a treatment with the CO2 laser?

A3: Since sunlight promotes skin aging, we generally recommend regular application of a suitable sunscreen. After the laser treatment, direct sunlight should be avoided for at least 4 weeks. We recommend using sun protection factor 50 plus and higher several times a day.

Q4: How long does a CO2 laser treatment take?

A4: The exact time depends on the area that is being treated; However, typically it takes two hours or less to complete. This timeframe includes an additional 30 minutes for topical numbing to be applied prior to treatment.

Q5: What is the downtime after CO2 fractional laser treatment?

A5: Downtime can vary depending on the intensity of the treatment and the individual's skin type and response. Typically, patients experience redness, swelling, and peeling for a few days to a week after treatment.
