FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
CO2 laser resurfacing uses ablative laser resurfacing to target damaged skin cells for overall skin rejuvenation. It works by using a high-energy beam of light to remove layers of damaged or aged skin, prompting the body's natural healing process to promote the growth of new, healthy skin cells.
-
The laser energy ablates or vaporizes the top layers of the skin, removing damaged skin cells. This process also stimulates the production of collagen, a protein that helps maintain skin elasticity and firmness. In addition to ablating the skin, the CO2 laser also generates heat within the deeper layers of the skin. This heat promotes collagen remodeling and contraction, resulting in tighter, smoother skin with improved texture and tone.
-
Many individuals experience significant improvement after just one session. The number of treatments required may vary depending on the severity of the skin concern and individual goals.
