CO2 Laser Resurfacing At A Glance
Everything you need to know before your consultation
What Is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?
The fractional CO2 laser treatment is a high-tech skin-renewal treatment that uses a carbon dioxide beam to target aged or sun-damaged tissue. This advanced system works by delivering rapid pulses of light energy that are absorbed by the water within your skin cells, removing the damaged surface layers precisely.
This technology is designed to trigger your body's own natural healing response, which involves the production of fresh, healthy collagen. The end result is a much tighter, smoother, and clearer complexion that looks naturally refreshed and younger.
