Skin Resurfacing

What is CO2 FSR?

The EXELO2 CO2 Fractional Skin Resurfacing (FSR) procedure is used for visible skin correction. This procedure is German engineered, making it a safer, dependable and more efficient laser. It is able to tighten skin, improve scars and stretch marks, repair sun damaged skin, reduce age spots, blemishes and large pores, blend uneven skin tone, and treat melasma and syringoma.

About the Procedure

For a full face laser skin resurfacing procedure, a topical anaesthetic is needed and most patients experience between 5 – 10 days of downtime. The CO2 laser skin resurfacing system offers the integration of the Zimmer Cryo 6 Chiller to supply the optimal amount of cooling (down to -30° C) to the epidermis, dramatically increasing patient comfort and decreasing the potential of side effects occurring during treatments.

Much like the Pixel Fractional Laser, the EXELO2 Fractional laser skin resurfacing creates thousands of microscopic ablative thermal channels (perforations) in the skin’s surface that stimulate the body’s natural healing process.

Unlike the Pixel, which uses a wavelength of 2940nm, EXELO2 goes much deeper with a wavelength of 10,600nm to focus on the stimulation of collagen in the skin to reduce wrinkles. The EXELO2 was designed exclusively for fractional skin resurfacing to create the optimal balance of depth and thermal zones, which increases results while decreasing pain and recovery times.

Benefits

The Cosmetic Medical Clinic is a leading provider of the CO2 laser procedure in Sydney. With its 10,600nm wavelength, the EXELO2 Fractional CO2 laser procedure is used for visible skin rejuvenation through the treatment of wrinkles, scars and pigment changes. EXELO2 combines micro-fine ablation zones for skin renewal and intense thermal stimulation for neo-synthesis of collagen. This leads to an optimal balance of good clinical and aesthetic results and faster healing with minimal side-effects.

FAQS

What can this procedure do for me?

It also reduces wrinkles whilst tightening the skin, repairs sun damaged skin, reduces age spots and large pores, and finally treats dark skin discolourations.

How long will it take to heal?

Following the CO2 Fractional Skin Resurfacing procedure, most patients will need to experience between five to seven days of downtime in order to allow the skin to heal.

Is it safe for every skin type?

Yes it is, one of the main benefits of the laser is that it is safe for all skin types and colours.

How long until I begin to see results?

I had severe acne for several years, skin had scars and dark coloured marks, and I went to CMC and started my acne treatment 6 months ago. Because I work in the city, it is really convenient for me. I did not see much change with the first three treatments; I started seeing result after the fourth and fifth treatment. However, I had acne breakout again, I felt like I was on a roller coaster. So, I decided to get another package with a session of skin resurfacing. Now, my acne has stopped, skin is not oily and smoother without any dark patches, large pores and most of my scars. I feel like a new person. I have learned how to look after my skin now. It’s completely different to my understanding before. I should have done this long time ago, really appreciate the way CMC looked after my skin. Thank you CMC!

Had two skin tags removed. The whole process was quick and virtually painless. Staff was friendly and professional. I found it to be reasonably priced as I don't have any insurance here being a visitor. If I need anything else done this is where I will go.

I was looking around for treatment for my acne as I have been getting a lot of 'cyst acne' on my face. I found the CMC clinic online and went on their website to find some treatment options that were available. I booked in for an appointment and had the Genesis and the CoolView treatments, which were recommended. After the treatment my skin looked tighter, fresher and even looked more smooth. It was a very comfortable and non invasive process. (Didn't hurt at all) My skin was less oily immediately and felt much smoother and clearer the next. My pores were also smaller and the skin itself looked more vibrant and clean. I am now going back each fortnight until the package is finished. I am happy to finally find a clinic which can help with my acne and facial problems. I am now in my 30's and have tried numerous lotions, scrubs, facial cleaners etc ALL my life. So thankful to have found CMC and the treatment I have received for my acne. Very happy with the results and professional approach taken!Sarah :)

Got the acne treatment done at CMC. I have acne rosacea since when I was a teenager and people used to call me “red face” for how red my face was all the time so I decided to contact CMC after reading all the great reviews. I was recommended to take the treatment using the Coolview and Genesis laser. It was non-invasive, pain free (thank God), no downtime and no one could tell that I had any treatment done to my face. It didn’t solve my problem in one go however after a few treatments I could really see a huuuge difference. Normally after taking a shower or being under the sun for even a short time, my skin used to go really red and blotchy for hours. After having the treatments done, my face looked “normal” and didn’t go red anymore after showers and I couldn’t be more happy to see that! As a bonus, the texture of my skin was much smoother, the pore size got smaller and even the blackheads I very much hated also became much less visible that I don’t need makeup to cover them anymore. This means I no longer have to put harmful chemicals on my skin and save my time in the morning which is great. I really would recommend CMC to anyone with acne/rosacea or those who just want smoother and more beautiful looking skin. They are very professional and I could tell they really wanted to help solve my skin problem. Definitely give them a go!

Jenner and her team at CMC are friendly and excellent all-around. I had two separate packages in order to treat my acne and pigmentation, and Jenner has gone above and beyond to provide treatments that would best suit my skin type and provide astounding results. My skin has definitely improved in both texture and appearance since having said treatments.You can tell that CMC truly values their clients and their quality of service is of a high standard of which all other cosmetic clinics should aspire to. I highly recommend them and will be referring all my skin treatment concerns with Jenner from now on.

Acne scaring has been a major issue for me ever since I was 16 years old. Soon to be 25, the shame, insecurity and self consciousness had been stuck to me. My confidence level has never been very high as I’ve battled with severe acne during my teenage days. It had left large, pitted scars that gave me a reminder of those memories. I had spent months researching on acne scar removal along with trying home remedies but none of which were effective. With graduating University, money and affordability has been a major problem in participating in any acne scar removal procedures and treatments. Months later, after doing TONS of research and going through many laser clinics that have extremely overpriced treatments, I came across the ‘Cosmetic Medical Clinic’. Location is very convenient as it took me about 5 minutes to walk from central station to the clinic. At first I was worried that it will be the same discussions, same prices, same procedures blah blah blah as other clinics but I was surprised. I entered the clinic and was kindly greeted by their friendly staff members. Filled out some quick details and they sent me off to see Jenner. Jenner showed great honesty, kindness and was very responsible. She is very experienced, personal and cares for what her patients feel which was something that I haven’t really received from other clinics. Jenner is very passionate about her work and is very professional with what she specialises in. I was highly informed with the procedures that was recommended for my acne scar removal process and compared to other clinics, it was much more affordable. She is very experienced and knowledgeable. This was when I knew this was the right clinic and decided to go ahead with the procedure.I went ahead with a session of Co2 Fractional Skin Resurfacing treatment along with 5 LED lighting skin treatments. I felt very comfortable putting myself in her hands. After the first session of Co2 Fractional Skin Resurfacing, my skin was pink and tender. It looked like a light sunburn. Jenner informed me greatly of the care processes after that first treatment e.g. no moisturiser or products, no direct sun exposure, no alcohol or intense exercises as it may affect the healing and increase swelling. This was followed by a session of LED lighting which wasn’t painful but it will improve healing results. I followed all that was instructed. After a couple of days, I was impressed to see great improvement in my skin colour and texture. I noticed major improvements in my acne scars and was happier by the day with the results. Every other day, I would be appointed back to the clinic and have another LED lighting session till my 5 sessions were complete. It has been 3-4 weeks since my first consultation and I can say my confidence, happiness and security level with my skin has skyrocketed. I feel fresh, clean and brand new. Finally out of my shell and away from the bad memories. This procedure along with the great help from Jenner and her wonderful team have helped me come out of my shell and I couldn’t thank them enough! Jenner was here for me the whole journey and has definitely made it worth while. I share my experiences to help another person that maybe going through what I went through with hours of dreaded research, trying to find the right place. I didn’t know what to do or who to trust with my skin but I finally made the right decision.I would like to say a MASSIVE ‘Thank You!’ to Jenner and her ‘Cosmetic Medical Clinic’ team for being here for me and improving my condition from start to finish. I couldn’t thank you or your team enough for what great help you guys have been for me. I would highly recommend this clinic to everyone and will definitely be coming back if I would like future treatments - no doubt.Kind regardsJay

I am grateful to have Jenner as my therapist. Jenner is very kind, personable, and knowledgeable. She is passionate about her work, she has a great professional attitude, and she knows what is best. I really appreciate what Jenner did for me. I have been struggling with my acne scar problems for 15 years. I have tried Microneedle Therapy System (MTS), and a variety of peelings, and there has been only slight improvement. Finally, I decided to give laser treatment a try. I came to see Jenner, and she recommended me to do Co2 Fractional Skin resurfacing. The pain was bearable for me, and it requires some downtime, and the result was impressive, my skin feels fresh and new. My scars have faded, this treatment delivers a more dramatic improvement of acne scarring than all other treatments I have had before. I also did Q-switch, and Coolview and Genesis treatment, I notice there was fewer breakouts and blackheads, my skin becomes smoother, and it effectively shrink my pores, which makes my skin looks clear. I am thrilled with the result. Thank you Jenner and her whole team, they are very friendly and helpful. The clinic location is very convenient, it only takes 5 minute walk to Central Railway Station. Highly recommend to everyone.

I can’t thank Jenner more for what she did for my and for my mum’s skin. I found Jenner for a mole treatment through google search due to those good review and found out she has been even more helpful than what I can expected. Me and my mum had laser resurfacing and Q switched laser. The result is amazing. She is really care of your skin and your feeling. And give all to help you to see the true improvement on your skin condition! This is something I never received in any cosmetic clinic before! Thank you Jenner and your team! Truely appreciated!

By far the best laser clinics I've been to! Jenner is absolutely amazing, I received laser treatment from her and she followed up with my skin condition and treated my skin like her own. Highly recommend this clinic and Jenner, thank you for such a great experience!

Im glad to leave this review finally after a long wait! Ive finished my last LED light therapy about 2 weeks ago after the fractional laser. Ive been suffering (emotionally) from acne scar which made me feel hopeless since the scar doesn’t get disappeared with any cream or medication. It was hard for me to decide to try this laser therapy due to its high costs (As a student, its not easy at all to pay more than $2000 for the whole therapy). Jenna takes a plenty of time to explain about the therapy and for any questions I had. She doesn’t rush through. Overall, I’m happy with the results although I wouldn’t say Ive got all the scar removed for 100%. Its been about 3 weeks since the laser and I still have redness in my cheeks but overall the acne scar is a lot milder. It really helped with boosting my confidence. I wanna get it done again next time if I have enough savings. All the staff are very nice and kind too! Thanks a lot!!

I had a single large skin tag at the back my leg. Jenna Chan at CMC Clinic has done the removal and all done by laser procedure in less than one hour, very quick and hassle-free. She’s very gentle and making sure the whole process run as smooth as possible. I didn’t feel any pain and there are no bleeding at all. Thank you CMC.

After alot of research and scepticism regarding ultherapy treatment. I finally placed my trust and face into the hands of practitioner Jenner Chan at CMC. Not knowing whether or not I was going to be a good candidate for the ultherapy treatment, I decided to go ahead with the treatment because I felt at ease and confident with Jenner Chan’s, experience, honest and detailed professional expertise and advice.The results of the ultherapy treatment have excelled my expectations and I am confident to say that I am a fresher, tighter and younger looking me instantly.I would like to thank Jenner Chan and the team at CMC clinic at Hay market Sydney for such great results and look forward to continuing a relationship with CMC regarding the future of maintaining a healthy skincare plan to make my skin and face, a New Confident Me..Kindly Samantha

I have been to this clinic a number of times for skin rejuvenation and have got great results. Jenna is a highly skilled therapist, she is passionate about getting the best outcome for her clients, she puts me at ease with her personable and down to earth manner. I have also found other staff in the clinic to be very friendly and helpful, the clinic itself is modern, clean and spacious. It will be my go to place for future treatments.

I can't recommend Jenner and the CMC highly enough! I’ve had a number of treatments over several years (Q switch laser and C02 spot treatment) and have always had fantastic results. Jenner is incredibly passionate about skin care. She really cares about her patients and is dedicated to achieving the best results. I had a horrible skin condition that doctors and dermatologists couldn’t help me with, but Jenner sorted it out in only a few weeks and helped me get my life back on track. Can’t thank her enough! There’s also complete consistency of care at CMC over the years, unlike random beauty parlours where staff are always coming and going. Jenner remembers her patients, learns about their skin and always knows what to recommend. There’s also no selling of beauty products, which often make your skin worse. If you have the best treatments with the highest quality lasers you don’t need them. So great to find a place that is practical and down to earth!

I visited Cosmetic Medical Clinic to get the scar on my face removed. Being dark skinned, getting laser on my face was a big concern as I was aware of the possibility of pigmentation. The specialists in the clinic, especially, Jenner who treated me was absolutely amazing, she fixed the scar on my face and even though I have some LED light therapy pending, I can already see the results, which is amazing. I highly recommend this clinic and would never go anywhere else. Guys, don't be afraid to pay them a visit, you wont regret it!!

Today I had the Q Switch treatment, last time I had this treatment was 2 years ago. I was surprised by the photos Jenner showed me of my skin 2 years ago compared to today. I couldn't believe my skin texture was cleaner and fresher and better looking.The results from the last treatment is still evident today. This treatment is extremely effective and doesn't need to be done a lot. Great experience and service. Also had LED Light afterwards, and am happy there's no down time!

Absolutely love this clinic!!! Very professional, welcoming and helpful team. Jenna has a very good knowledge of the industry. I can say that I'm happy with the results after 2 Q-switch laser treatments. My face is brighter, smoother and my pigmentation scars started to fade. Can't wait to see you on my next visit ☺️Merci CMC!!

I have had 2 treatments so far at CMC and have bought an additional package of 5 - Q-Switch laser. I had a great consultation with Jenner before recommending what I needed - she took some photographs of my skin and then walked me through her recommendations. It was important to her that I knew what I was going to be signing up for. I have searched many years and tried many things to improve my skin. Various treatments and countless skin care brands with little to no results. Some of it made my skin worse. I have always preferred to use natural products but I haven't had much luck finding any that improved my skin (my skin is not bad - I've had acne and a lot of sun but nothing too bad - but it is something I have attention on fixing. I usually wear makeup every day - foundation, powder, blush, concealer, to make it look nicer. With Jenner's help she is working with me to stop using all the makeup and chemicals and help me to feel comfortable in my own skin - no make up! She is honest and realistic with what she tells you and that gives me confidence. Her treatments are relatively pain free and she ensures you are comfortable. After 2 sessions my skin is looking much better and I am very to see how it progresses after more sessions - she takes photographs each time to show me the progress. The machines she uses are the best of the best and the clinic is very clean and modern which is great - not like some of the dingy beauticians and laser clinics I have visited in the past. This is worth the money - especially since I wont have to buy all the beauty products and make up like I have in the past. I do not usually write reviews on here but I have been so happy with it so far, I though I should share so others can get help too!
