What is CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing?

CO2 laser skin resurfacing is a treatment used to improve the surface quality of the skin. The laser removes thin layers of damaged skin, allowing new skin to form during the healing process.

As the skin heals, textural irregularities and superficial wrinkles may gradually improve.

What Happens During the Treatment?

The following overview explains what typically happens during CO2 Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing treatment and the recovery process.

About Laser Skin Resurfacing

For a full CO2 Fractional Skin Resurfacing (FSR) treatment on the face, a topical anaesthetic is required, and most individuals experience around 5 to 7 days of downtime.

The CO2 FSR system offers the integration of the Zimmer Cryo 6 Chiller to supply the optimal amount of cooling (down to -30° C) to the epidermis, significantly increasing client comfort, and decreasing the potential of side effects occurring during treatments.

The CO2 Fractional Laser creates thousands of microscopic ablative thermal channels (perforations) in the skin’s surface that stimulate the body’s natural healing process. This Italian engineered system acquires both radio frequency and CO2 such that radio frequency enhances the effects of CO2 laser treatment by remodelling tissue in-depth, toning the skin’s flabbiness and stimulating fibroblast activity to produce new collagen.
