How does it work?
The CO2 Fractional Laser uses an incredibly precise laser beam that penetrates deep into the epidermis targeting the damaged and old skin cells. It instantly helps trigger the production of new collagen enhancing skin cell regeneration. This procedure helps remove damaged or pigmented skin, revealing a more youthful, brighter and more even complexion.
When are results noticeable?
You will notice after your very first session. Maximum results will be visible within 3 to 5 months as collagen renews in the months following your last session.
For best results, we generally recommend 4 to 6 treatments scheduled four weeks apart. Your specialist will assess and recommend the ideal treatment plan for your individual needs.
procedure step-by-step
The first step is a complimentary consultation with one of our medical aesthetic consultants. We will review your medical history, discuss your concerns, and ensure that the CO2 Fractional Laser is right for you. We will then explain the treatment thoroughly, and book your treatment or spot test, if necessary.
Before your treatment, your skin must be clean, without lotion, oils, creams or fragrances.
Your specialist may recommend a spot test 3 to 5 days before the treatment to ensure that you are a good candidat. You will also be informed on the pre-treatment requirements to ensure you are prepared.
Your specialist will thoroughly cleanse your skin prior to the procedure and apply numbing cream to the treatment areas for more comfort. The laser will precisely target a fraction of your skin at a time leaving the rest of the surrounded tissue untouched. This process will kick start your skin’s natural healing process promoting new collagen.
You should expect redness, sensitivity, and a sunburn sensation. The next few days following the procedure, your skin will start to scab and fall away, shedding all of the dead cells and replacing them with brand new ones. You will be advised to follow a specific homecare regimen after the treatment.
