CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing

Why CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing?

CO2 laser is one of the most widely used lasers within dermatology. Treating the skin with CO2 laser can help a variety of skin concerns, including, scarring from acne breakouts and premature ageing. Not only can this treatment be used on the face, but you can also treat areas on the body.

What is CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing?

CO2 laser energy is absorbed in water. As skin contains a very high water percentage, CO2 laser is ideal. The fractional delivery of CO2 laser to the skins surface is attracted to the water molecules in the skin. This absorbs the laser energy creating heat. This process allows the skin to reach a temperature of irreversible thermal trauma. This thermal trauma promotes collagen formation. As a result, production of new skin is stimulated within the Dermis and Epidermis, creating a smoother skin surface and rejuvenation.
