What is Fractional CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Fractional CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing is the latest innovation for micro-ablative skin rejuvenation. Using advanced laser technology, a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser for skin resurfacing precisely removes outer layers of damaged skin to reveal the softer, smoother, and younger looking underlying skin. The CO2 laser is one of the most commonly used laser skin resurfacing treatment options.

​

Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing is perfect for:
Acne scars
Fine lines and superficial wrinkles
Sun damaged skin
Hyperpigmentation
Skin discoloration/brown spots
Skin laxity and rough texture

What can I expect from Acne and Scar Removal?*

​

Fractional CO2 Laser is your single-treatment solution for beautiful, younger-looking skin with very little social downtime expected. During the procedure, a high-energy beam of laser light is used to smooth out lines, wrinkles, and scars, remove brown spots and other irregularities, and tighten the skin. This procedure also stimulates the formation of new underlying collagen that continues to improve over time.

With the Fractional CO2 Laser Treatment, only a fraction of the skin’s surface is treated by the laser, leaving small “bridges” of untouched skin. This technique makes the healing process much faster and enables you to get back to normal activities sooner.

​

Is there any discomfort with the Fractional CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing?*

​

Patients can expect little to no pain associated with the procedure; most patients say they feel warmth similar to a sunburn. Feel free to ask your provider for a topical numbing agent that may be used prior to the procedure to minimize any discomfort.
