Why Should I Get Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing?

Age spots, wrinkles, scars, or other skin blemishes got you down? Let Iconic Plastic Surgery help! We offer fractional CO2 laser resurfacing to regenerate the look and feel of your skin so that you’re left with a flawless complexion. From UV rays from the sun to other environmental factors, our skin is constantly taking a beating. One of the most frustrating things is that no matter how hard we try, sometimes our skincare routines are just not good enough to restore and rejuvenate our skin. And that’s where CO2 laser resurfacing fits in. It is the perfect solution to rebuild your damaged skin. Below is information to help you better understand what CO2 laser resurfacing is and why you might want to think about scheduling your own treatment.

How Does Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing Work?

Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing is a non-surgical procedure that is performed in the Iconic Plastic Surgery office. Where standard laser treatments simply use standard light energy, CO2 laser technology uses carbon dioxide to create a specific wavelength of light that removes the damaged outer layers of the skin while stimulating collagen production to promote new, healthy growth. What makes CO2 laser resurfacing even better is that this laser is so precise that it doesn’t damage any of the surrounding areas of the skin, so you can trust that only the problem areas are being affected.

What Does It Treat?

The fractional CO2 laser works by creating controlled injuries to the skin to promote natural healing and collagen production. This treatment can help correct a wide variety of skin problems, including:

  1. Acne
  2. Age spots
  3. Crow’s feet
  4. Enlarged oil glands (especially around the nose)
  5. Fine lines and wrinkles
  6. Hyperpigmentation
  7. Sagging skin
  8. Sun damage
  9. Uneven skin tone
  10. Warts

What Are Other Benefits of Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing?

While giving you smoother, more rejuvenated skin, fractional CO2 laser resurfacing can help you look years younger than you are. Additionally, where many cosmetic treatments require multiple treatment sessions, fractional CO2 laser resurfacing usually only requires one session to give you the results you are looking for.
