We use a state-of-the-art fractional CO₂ laser as part of our skin resurfacing treatments. This advanced laser technology enables us to provide a higher quality of care and treatments that produce beautiful results.

Fractional CO₂ lasers work by targeting deeper layers of skin to stimulate collagen production and create firmer, smoother, younger and healthier skin. They also target aging and damaged skin to trigger the body’s natural healing process and create new cells to rejuvenate and tighten the skin. Fractionalized lasers utilize microscopic laser columns, allowing our doctors to target specific areas of skin without affecting the surrounding tissues. This minimizes your discomfort and circumvents the need for incisions or needles in your procedure.

Our doctors may use a fractional CO₂ laser to treat a number of cosmetic problems, such as:

• Deep wrinkles
• Scarring
• Loose skin
• Sun damage
• Blotchiness
• Textural changes in the skin

Treatments with a fractional CO₂ laser typically take about 45 minutes. You may experience some swelling in treated areas for up to seven days after your procedure. The duration of your results will depend on the condition being treated.
