Understanding Fractional CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing

Experience remarkable results with minimal downtime. CO2 laser technology has a rich history, offering effective treatment for a range of skin concerns. By emitting infrared radiation at a specific wavelength, CO2 lasers target water within the skin, vaporizing damaged tissue to reveal fresher layers beneath. Traditional CO2 lasers, while effective, often entailed extended recovery periods due to widespread tissue removal. However, fractional CO2 technology revolutionizes the process. By creating micro-columns of tissue injury interspersed with untreated areas, fractional CO2 lasers deliver exceptional results with shorter recovery times. Experience the power of rejuvenation with fractional CO2 laser skin resurfacing at AR Aesthetics.

Our Fractional CO2 Laser Procedure:
Renew Your Skin from Within

Preparation Before Treatment

Dr. Ibrahim, our provider of CO2 laser resurfacing in Tampa and Melbourne, Florida, will craft a personalized pre-treatment regimen tailored to your skin type and medical history. This regimen includes topical skincare products to condition your skin and may involve oral and topical medications to ensure a smooth recovery process. Detailed instructions will be provided on how to care for your skin at home before the laser treatment. It’s crucial to follow these instructions diligently to ensure a safe and comfortable recovery.

Day of Your Procedure

Patients are advised to arrive at our clinic approximately one hour before their scheduled laser treatment. Upon arrival, your skin will be thoroughly cleansed, and a numbing cream will be applied. After one hour, the cream will be removed, and you may also be offered an oral sedative medication to help you relax during the treatment. Special goggles or lenses will be used to protect your eyes, and then the laser treatment will commence. Typically, two passes are required, and the entire procedure takes around 20 to 30 minutes to complete. Dr. Ibrahim prioritizes your comfort throughout the session.

After Laser Treatment

Following the treatment, your skin may appear whitish or pinkish, and there may be areas of pinpoint bleeding. A thin layer of emollient will be applied to the treated areas, along with a cool compress to soothe the skin. It’s advisable to arrange for a designated driver to take you home after the procedure. To reduce swelling, patients are encouraged to sleep on their back with their head elevated. Adhering to all post-laser aftercare instructions and continuing the prescribed medications are vital for a safe and effective recovery. Patients will return to the office the next day for a follow-up visit to go over post laser care instructions.

Recovery

Your recovery duration is tailored to match the intensity of your fractional CO2 laser treatment. While some patients seek a gentle refresh of their skin texture, others with extensive sun damage may require a more intense treatment depth. As a result, recovery times typically range from 5 to 10 days, with rare cases needing up to 2 weeks for full healing. Your skin may feel warm to the touch post-treatment, and applying cool compresses can offer soothing relief.

Results

Fractional CO2 laser skin resurfacing effectively addresses a range of skin concerns, including skin laxity, scarring, discoloration, and photoaging. Following a single treatment session, patients will notice improvements in fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation issues, and overall skin texture. Deeper wrinkles and scars may require multiple treatments for optimal results.
Visible improvements are evident once the healing period concludes. Expect smoother, refreshed skin that feels softer to the touch. Thanks to the collagen remodeling stimulated by the CO2 laser, ongoing enhancements in skin tightening, tone, and complexion continue for up to 6 months post-treatment. When complemented with a robust daily skincare routine, the results can be truly remarkable. Capture your skin’s beauty with fractional CO2 laser skin resurfacing.
