CO2 Laser Resurfacing: The Gold Standard for Dramatic Skin Rejuvenation
CO2 Laser Resurfacing: The Gold Standard for Dramatic Skin Rejuvenation
If you’re looking for the most powerful way to rejuvenate your skin, look no further than fractional CO2 laser resurfacing. This treatment is ideal for those who want dramatic improvement in texture, scars, wrinkles, and pigmentation.
What is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?
CO2 lasers work by removing the top layers of damaged skin while also stimulating collagen production in deeper layers. Fractional technology targets a grid of micro-columns, leaving surrounding tissue intact for faster healing.
What Conditions Does it Treat?
-
Deep wrinkles and fine lines
-
Acne scars and surgical scars
-
Sun damage and age spots
-
Rough skin texture
-
Large pores
What to Expect from the Procedure
A strong numbing cream (and sometimes oral sedatives) is applied before treatment. The laser session takes 30–90 minutes. You’ll experience redness, swelling, and peeling for 7–10 days.
Recovery Timeline
-
Day 1–3: Swelling and oozing
-
Day 4–7: Peeling and flaking
-
Day 8+: Redness fades gradually

How Many Sessions?
One session often delivers major results, but some patients with deep scars or severe damage may benefit from a second treatment.
