Fractional CO2 Laser
WHAT IS FRACTIONAL CO2 LASER?

Fractional COâ‚‚ laser is a highly effective skin resurfacing treatment that uses controlled laser energy to create microscopic channels in the skin. These tiny thermal injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing response, triggering collagen production and cellular renewal from within - without damaging the surrounding skin.

This cutting-edge treatment delivers powerful results with precision, improving skin texture and tone while reducing visible signs of aging.

WHAT DOES IT TREAT?

Fractional COâ‚‚ laser treats a range of skin concerns including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, surgical scars, enlarged pores, sun damage, and overall skin laxity. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, it helps reveal a firmer, smoother, and more evenly toned complexion over time.

PRE-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS

  • Avoid sun exposure for at least 7 days prior to your treatment. Use SPF 30+ daily.

  • Discontinue retinoids, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and any exfoliating products 5–7 days before treatment.

  • Avoid in-office treatments (like chemical peels or microneedling) at least 2 weeks prior.

  • If using Accutane, you must wait at least 6 months before undergoing COâ‚‚ laser.

  • Do not schedule Botox or fillers within 2 weeks before or after the laser treatment.

  • Inform me of any recent skin treatments, medications, or medical conditions.

POST-CARE INSTRUCTIONS

  • Expect redness, swelling, and a sunburn-like sensation immediately after treatment - this is normal and part of the healing process.

  • Use only gentle, non-active products for the first 7–10 days:

  • Soothing Cleanser

  • Thermal Spring Water Spray or Mist

  • Barrier Repair Moisturizer

  • Avoid sun exposure completely for 7–10 days. After that, apply broad-spectrum SPF 50+ daily.

  • Do not pick, scratch, or rub the treated area - allow any flaking or peeling to occur naturally.

  • Avoid exercise, saunas, or anything that causes sweating for 3–5 days.

  • Avoid makeup for at least 5–7 days, or until skin is fully healed.

  • Do not use retinoids, exfoliants, or active ingredients for 10–14 days post-treatment.

  • Continue using calming, hydrating skincare to support your results.
