CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing treatment is a fractional ablative laser that resurfaces the skin. How exactly does this work? The laser works by removing microscopic amounts of skin and heating up the dermis layer. This will allow for stimulation of new collagen, and we all know collagen is a great thing for our skin!
Essex MedSpa would recommend this treatment if you are looking to treat one or multiple of these skin issues:
- Fine, medium, and deep wrinkles
- Age spots
- Sunspots
- Mild to moderate acne scars
- Enlarged pores
- Many, many others
Is a CO2 laser treatment painful?
If you are curious about the CO2 laser treatment being painful you can put that curiosity to rest! Dr. Sohayda and her team are expertly trained in making your experience comfortable with minimal pain. Topical anesthetics, numbing cream and a cooling unit are commonly used, but if you have other questions be sure to call and ask!
After your CO2 laser skin resurfacing treatment, you can expect the full healing process to take 7-14 days and just remember, redness/itching is common. Your Essex MedSpa Doctor and Team will give you detailed instructions for post-treatment care and should be followed closely.
