CO2 Laser Resurfacing

CO2 Laser resurfacing is a treatment that reduces skin irregularities, such as wrinkles, pores, discolorations, blemishes, scars and acne scars. Also CO2 laser resurfacing tightens the skin and improves laxity.

CO2 laser resurfacing uses very short pulsed light energy (known as ultra pulse) or continuous light beams that are delivered in a scanning pattern to remove thin layers of skin vertically with minimal heat damage.

CO2 Laser Resurfacing delivers energy to both the inner and outer layers of the skin to stimulate collagen and cell turnover. Where the outer layer of the skin is a protective barrier, the inner layer provides structure to keep the outer skin layer firm. Laser resurfacing produces great results because it treats both the inner and outer layers of the skin. Energy pulses produce a warm, sharp feeling. We use topical anesthetics, nerve block and cooling devices to ensure your comfort during and after treatment.

If you have fine lines or wrinkles around your eyes or mouth or on your forehead, shallow scars from acne, or non-responsive skin after a facelift, then you may be a good candidate for laser skin resurfacing.

If you have acne or if you have very dark skin, you may not be a candidate for skin resurfacing. You should discuss whether laser resurfacing is right for you by consulting with the Medical Provider before having the procedure done.
