What is CO2 Fractional Laser Treatment?

With the help of advanced laser technology, CO2 fractional laser therapy is a cosmetic surgery that targets particular regions of the skin with precise light beams to rejuvenate it. The term “fractional” describes the fractionated pattern of laser energy delivery that produces microscopic thermal damage columns in the skin while sparing the surrounding tissue. As a result, there is a rise in collagen synthesis, skin regeneration, and general skin renewal as the body’s natural healing reaction is stimulated. Smoother, tighter, and younger-looking skin is the outcome of CO2 fractional laser treatment, which is very successful at reducing wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and other indications of age.

Procedure

CO2 fractional laser treatments at Facethetics Skin Clinic are performed by experienced technicians using state-of-the-art CO2 fractional laser devices. Here’s what you can expect during your treatment:

1. Consultation: Before the treatment, you’ll have a consultation with one of our technicians to discuss your skin concerns, treatment goals, and medical history. We’ll assess your suitability for CO2 fractional laser treatment and customize the treatment plan to address your specific areas of concern.

2. Preparation: The treatment area will be cleaned on the day of your appointment, and to help you feel as comfortable as possible throughout the process, a topical numbing lotion might be used. Protective eyewear will be given to you in order to screen your eyes from the laser light.

3. Laser Treatment: Targeted skin areas receive accurate delivery of laser energy beams during the CO2 fractional laser therapy session. By inflicting tiny columns of thermal damage on the skin, the laser energy encourages the formation of collagen and skin rejuvenation. Through this procedure, the texture of the skin is improved, fine lines and wrinkles are reduced, and scars and other flaws are less noticeable.

4. Post-Treatment Care: Your treated region may be slightly swollen, red, or sensitive after the CO2 fractional laser therapy session, but these side effects usually go away in a few days. To reduce discomfort and encourage the best possible healing, our technician will provide you aftercare advice.

Benefits

Reduces Wrinkles and Fine Lines: The application of CO2 fractional laser treatment results in a decrease in wrinkles, fine lines, and other symptoms of aging by inducing collagen formation and stimulating skin renewal.
Improves Skin Texture:CO2 fractional laser treatment aims to enhance skin texture and tone, resulting in smoother, more even skin by directing laser energy towards specific parts of the skin.
Minimizes Acne Scars: CO2 fractional laser treatment is highly effective for minimizing the appearance of acne scars, as it promotes collagen remodeling and skin regeneration in the treated areas.
Tightens and Firms Skin: CO2 fractional laser treatment stimulates collagen production, which helps to tighten and firm the skin, giving it a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.

Side Effects

While CO2 fractional laser treatment is generally safe, some potential side effects may occur, including:

Redness and Swelling: Mild redness and swelling in the treated area are common after CO2 fractional laser treatment, but these side effects typically subside within a few days.
Sensitivity: Some patients may experience temporary sensitivity or discomfort in the treated area, but these side effects are usually mild and transient.
Risk of Hyperpigmentation or Hypopigmentation: In rare cases, CO2 fractional laser treatment may cause changes in skin pigmentation, such as darkening (hyperpigmentation) or lightening (hypopigmentation) of the skin. These changes are usually temporary but may be permanent in some cases.

Aftercare

To promote optimal results and minimize the risk of side effects, it’s important to follow these aftercare guidelines:

Protect Your Skin: Avoid sun exposure and wear sunscreen with a high SPF to protect your skin from UV damage and minimize the risk of pigmentation irregularities.
Keep Your Skin Hydrated: Moisturize your skin regularly to keep it hydrated and promote optimal healing and skin regeneration.
Avoid Harsh Products: Avoid using harsh or abrasive skincare products on the treated area, as these may cause irritation or inflammation.
Follow Up as Directed: Depending on your individual needs and treatment plan, you may need to schedule multiple CO2 fractional laser treatment sessions to achieve optimal results. Follow up with your technician as directed to ensure the best possible outcome.
