Fractional CO2 Laser treatments are performed in a single visit with minimal downtime. During the procedures, a high energy beam of laser light interacts with the skin’s surface, causing the upper layer to peel off and regenerate a layer of new, healthy skin. The laser also stimulates formation of new, underlying collagen, which results in continued improvement in skin texture over time.
The Fractional CO2 Laser targets:
Fine lines and wrinkles of the face, especially around the upper lip, cheeks, and forehead
Crow’s feet or wrinkles around the eyes
Pucker marks (“smoker’s lines”) and frown lines
Brown spots and uneven skin tone
Coagulation of soft tissue
Scars, especially acne scarring
This laser can also be used to treat acne scarring on the back, stretch marks, and to tighten the skin around the neck.
