FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Fractional CO2 Laser work?
The laser emits thousands of microscopic light beams that penetrate the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries while leaving healthy tissue around them intact. This immediately triggers cellular repair mechanisms and new collagen formation, renewing the skin from the inside out.
Is the procedure painful?
To ensure patient comfort, a high-potency topical numbing cream is applied approximately 30 to 45 minutes before starting. During the treatment, a perfectly tolerable heat sensation or slight tingling may be felt.
How many sessions are needed to see results?
Changes in skin texture and tone are noticeable after the first session. Depending on the condition being treated (e.g., deep acne scars or severe wrinkles), 1 to 3 sessions, spaced several weeks apart, are typically recommended.
What is the recovery process and aftercare like?
During the first 2 to 3 days, the skin will show redness and swelling similar to a sunburn, followed by a fine peeling phase lasting 4 to 7 days. Strict use of sunscreen, specific hydrating/repairing creams, and avoiding direct sun exposure are mandatory during the healing process.
Who are the ideal candidates for this treatment?
It is ideal for patients looking to correct signs of aging, acne scarring, or skin laxity. A prior dermatological assessment is required to analyze the skin phototype, medical history, and rule out any contraindications.
What can we treat with the Fractional CO2 Laser?
This treatment is highly versatile and designed to combat multiple dermatological and aesthetic conditions on the face, neck, décolletage, and hands:
-
Rejuvenation and Wrinkles: Smooths fine lines and deep wrinkles while combating skin laxity by massively stimulating collagen and elastin production.
-
Acne and Surgical Scars: Softens skin texture, significantly reducing the depth and appearance of scars.
-
Sunspots and Photoaging: Removes sun-damaged layers of skin, evening out the skin tone and providing immediate radiance after renewal.
-
Enlarged Pores and Irregular Texture: Shrinks pores and completely renews the superficial layer of the skin (resurfacing effect).
