What is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?

Beauty That Beams

This technique encourages new skin cell growth and collagen remodeling, resulting in a smoother, firmer, and more even complexion. Ideal for addressing significant skin issues, CO2 laser treatments penetrate deeper than other methods, offering substantial long-term improvements.

A Smooth Path to Luminous Skin

CO2 Laser Recovery

Healing time varies with treatment depth. Generally, expect visible recovery signs like redness, swelling, and peeling to last around 5 to 10 days.

Protecting your skin from the sun and following your provider's aftercare plan is crucial during this phase. While the surface heals quickly, deeper enhancements occur over the next few weeks as collagen regenerates beneath your skin. This ongoing process contributes to a smoother, rejuvenated appearance, ensuring you achieve optimal results from your procedure.

Bright Confidence

CO2 Laser Results

Expect to see changes within a week after your treatment. Over the next 3 to 6 months, as collagen rebuilds, improvements will continue. Many patients experience brighter, tighter, and more youthful skin even after just one session.

If in doubt, consult with your practitioner for personalized advice tailored to your specific treatment and skin type.
