What is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?

Co2 Laser travels deeper than any other laser, breaking the dermal barrier which targets specific areas of the skin for a smoother, more even and youthful complexion. This treatment is perfect for those who struggle with ageing skin, pigmentation, scarring, stretch marks or loose skin, and for those who simply want to look fresh-faced and rejuvenated. This is a highly effective treatment with minimal downtime.

How Does CO2 Laser Work?

The Co2 Laser has many variables that can be tailored accurately and individually to each client’s needs. Perfectly controlled energy pulses are generated and directed to the treatment area. The pulse provides rapid and short bursts of controlled heat, which leads to micro-ablation. This is followed by a low-energy thermal effect that produces shrinkage and triggers collagen and elastin production. Co2 Laser Resurfacing generally requires a number of treatment sessions with rapid recovery time.

What can Co2 Laser be used for?

• A highly effective anti-ageing treatment that stimulates the production opf collagen, improving skin elasticity
• Neck Tightening whilst enhancing the texture and appearance of the skin
• Stretch mark reduction, scar reduction (including acne scars, surgical scars, ice pick scars) 
• Post-pregnancy stretch marks and loose skin
• Treatment of uneven skin texture, large pores and sun damage
• Hand or neck rejuvenation
• Sagging knees
• Loose skin on upper arms

Preparing for your treatment:

Most people are suitable for the treatment, but we recommend a consultation and a patch test to determine a suitable treatment plan for you. Before your Co2 laser appointment, avoid sun exposure for 4 weeks and ensure there is no false tan in the treatment area.

FAQs

How long do Co2 Laser Resurfacing results last? 

Co2 Laser Resurfacing is a permanent treatment and the benefits of the treatment can last for many months/years if the correct skin care is followed and the application of a high quality SPF 50 on a daily basis. Results can be seen from the first treatment, depending on the issue that we are treating.

How many sessions are usually needed? 

Typically clients undertake a course of either 3 to 10 sessions. This will depend on the area and the severity of the issue we are treating.

How is CO2 different to traditional Fractional Laser? 

The CO2 laser penetrates the skin much deeper than a traditional Fractional laser and uses smaller columns of heat that are closer together which makes the healing process quicker and far more comfortable.  

Is there any downtime? 

On average the downtime is about 5 to 10 days depending on the area treated. Most people are fine to go about their day as normal, swelling and redness will typically have settled by 3-5 days.  

How soon will I see a difference? 

You will see a difference after one treatment, however, a course is recommended to get optimal results.
