Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing is designed to treat the advanced signs of damaged skin caused by chronic exposure including wrinkles and lines, dark spots, uneven skin tone, dilated blood vessels and rough texture. This may cause you to appear older and/or unhealthy. Laser skin rejuvenation is a go-to solution to reverse and reduce these signs. by correcting tone, firmness and texture while reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
CO2 lasers are the gold standard for skin rejuvenation. Traditionally CO2 lasers commonly left people’s faces looking raw, red and irritated. The lasers ablated the entire surface of the skin, causing longer healing time, discomfort and prolonged redness.
Fractional CO2 laser therapy describes a treatment that exposes only a fraction of the skin to the laser beam in a pattern of tiny holes in the skin. Columns of damaged tissue are selectively removed, leaving surrounding skin intact. The process removes tissue and then stimulates the growth of healthy, new skin, full of fresh collagen. Fractional CO2 laser plumps the skin from below, repairing photo damage, lines, scars and other skin imperfections by approximately 50%. The recovery time is about 5-7 days.
Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing provides more significant results than non ablative fractional systems while achieving shorter healing times and fewer complications when compared with full ablative systems. The tradeoff of these lasers compared with full-field ablative lasers is the need for multiple sessions to achieve similar results.
