What Is CO2 Fractional Laser Treatment?

CO2 Fractional Laser Treatment is an advanced laser skin resurfacing treatment that offers relief from a variety of skin concerns. It is considered to make skin smoother, clearer, firmer/tighter, and more evenly toned/radiant.

How CO2 Fractional Laser Works on the Skin?

As CO2 fractional laser light is passed over the skin to be treated, it creates several microthermal zones. These tiny injuries/micro columns allow laser energy to precisely reach the dermis in a fractional pattern. As the laser energy passes through the skin layers, it is converted to thermal energy. Thus, the laser's heat triggers the body’s natural wound-healing response. It activates dermal fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin while promoting cell turnover. This makes the skin free of early signs of aging and environmental damage.

Step-by-Step CO2 Fractional Laser Treatment Procedure

Consultation- An initial consultation with a certified, experienced practitioner is required for a thorough assessment of the targeted area- the skin type and issue, discussion of treatment goals/expectations, and a check for contraindications.
CO2 Fractional Laser Treatment Appointment - First, the practitioner ensures the targeted skin is thoroughly cleansed, then applies a topical anaesthetic. For patient safety the patient is asked to wear an eye shield. On the clean skin, the practitioner hovers the laser handpiece over the targeted areas and delivers energy. Before the laser application, the practitioner performs a patch test with the laser and selects the wavelength that best suits the skin type, ensuring effective operation. Based on the skin type and condition that is to be treated, the depth and intensity of the CO2 fractional laser are adjusted. Overall, the session takes around half to one hour.
Post-treatment- The practitioner cleans up the treated area and applies a soothing, hydrating mask or cooling gel, followed by moisturiser and sunscreen. Finally, the practitioner provides aftercare instructions and gives follow-up schedules.
