Advanced Skin Resurfacing for Smoother, Healthier-Looking Skin
What Is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?
CO2 laser resurfacing is an advanced fully ablative laser treatment used to improve skin texture, tone, and overall skin quality. The treatment removes damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating collagen production beneath the surface to support smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin over time.
CO2 laser treatments are commonly used to address acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, uneven skin tone, and texture concerns with customized treatment plans based on your skin goals.
What Can CO2 Laser Resurfacing Treat?
CO2 laser resurfacing is commonly used to improve a variety of skin concerns, including:
Acne scars
Fine lines and wrinkles
Sun damage
Uneven skin texture
Age spots and discoloration
Enlarged pores
Skin laxity
Rough or damaged skin
By resurfacing the skin and stimulating collagen production, CO2 laser treatments can help restore smoother, healthier-looking skin with long-lasting results.
How CO2 Laser Resurfacing Works
CO2 laser technology works by delivering controlled laser energy into the skin to remove damaged surface layers while triggering the body’s natural healing response.
As the skin heals, new collagen production is stimulated beneath the surface, helping improve firmness, texture, and overall skin quality. Because CO2 laser resurfacing works both on the surface and deeper within the skin, results continue to improve gradually during the healing process.
What to Expect After Treatment
Recovery time after CO2 laser resurfacing can vary depending on the intensity of the treatment and the areas treated. Patients commonly experience redness, swelling, dryness, and peeling as the skin heals.
Downtime is expected with fully ablative CO2 laser treatments, and your provider will review aftercare instructions and recovery expectations during your consultation. Protecting the skin from sun exposure during the healing process is especially important following treatment.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
The number of treatments recommended depends on your skin concerns, treatment goals, and the condition of your skin. Some patients may see noticeable improvement after a single treatment, while others may benefit from additional treatments for more advanced concerns.
Your provider will create a customized treatment plan during your consultation to help determine the best approach for your skin and desired results.
