FAQs

Does CO2 laser resurfacing really work?

Yes, CO2 laser resurfacing is an effective treatment for various skin issues. It works by using a carbon dioxide laser to remove layers of skin tissue in a fractionated method (columns of skin are removed, leaving the skin surrounding each column intact to aid in healing). This process helps to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, sun damage, and uneven skin texture, promoting the growth of new, healthy skin.

How long does CO2 laser resurfacing take to heal?

The healing time after CO2 laser resurfacing can vary depending on the intensity of the treatment and the individual's skin type, but generally, the initial healing process takes about 1 to 2 weeks. During this time, patients may experience redness, swelling, and peeling. Complete healing and the full effects of the treatment, including skin tightening and texture improvements, can take up to several months as the skin continues to produce new collagen.

How many sessions of CO2 laser resurfacing?

The number of CO2 laser resurfacing sessions needed can vary based on the individual's skin condition and the desired outcomes. Some people may see significant improvements with just one session, especially if the laser is set to a more aggressive treatment level. However, for those with deeper wrinkles, severe sun damage, or scars, multiple sessions spaced several months apart may be necessary to achieve optimal results. Our expert providers can create a more personalized treatment plan upon a consultation.

Who is not a good candidate for CO2 laser resurfacing?

Individuals with active skin infections, severe acne, darker skin tones (due to the risk of pigmentation changes), a history of keloid scarring, poor wound healing, or those who have recently taken isotretinoin may not be a good candidates for this treatment. However, our expert providers may recommend other effective treatment options that are suitable for your skin during a consultation.
