How does Fractional Co2 Laser works?

Fractional Co2 Laser works by producing columns of laser beams which precisely penetrate to the level of wrinkles or scars, and stimulate your own skin to replace the old collagen with new “baby” collagen. In between the laser beams, the skin remains intact, allowing healing to occur quickly.

Who is suitable for Fractional Co2 Laser?

1. Moderate to severe facial wrinkles

2. Moderate wrinkles neck, hands

3. Sun damage and brown spots

4. Acne and other Scarring

What does the treatment involve?

The treatment involves using the laser over a complete area or whole face. It is not suitable for a single wrinkle line or fold.

A numbing cream is applied to the area for at least 1-2 hours prior to treatment, and in some cases local an aesthetic injections are used. Pain puffers and medication can also be used if needed.

The laser is applied to the affected areas. At the end of the treatment the area will look like small white or red dots that disappear by the following day. There is usually redness that lasts at least 7 days, and swelling for a few days. Most people need about 5 days off work.

How many treatments will I need?

Depending on the degree or wrinkling or scarring and your expectations, you would usually need 1-3 treatments. Some people need more, especially those with severe acne scarring.

Is Fractional Co2 Laser painful?

Pain really depends on how strong you use the Fractional Co2 Laser. In most cases, it is essential to use at least a numbing cream, and often local anaesthetic injections are also used. For increased comfort, pain puffers and other painkillers may be used.

After the treatment, there is some discomfort for about 1 hour. It is best relieved by using ice, cold air, or cold compresses.
