Fractional CO2 Laser Treatments
Fractional CO2 resurfacing can erase years from your face and dramatically improve the appearance of wrinkles and pigment.
Procedure:
- Small columns of fractionated energy are used to ablate areas of damage. Tiny wounds are made and the surrounding healthy skin helps with healing.
- By targeting zones deep in the skin as opposed to the entire skin surface, fractional CO2 resurfacing is a one-time, treatment performed with local anesthesia.
Recovery:
- During the first week following the procedure skin will be raw and sensitive.
- Although the skin heals within a month, redness can persist for over 6-8 weeks.
Results:
Significant improvements in:
- Fine lines
- Wrinkles
- Skin laxity
- Discoloration
