A procedure that uses a carbon dioxide laser to remove outer layers of damaged skin, promoting collagen production and revealing smoother, younger-looking skin.
What is it?
CO2 Ablative laser skin resurfacing is an advanced cosmetic procedure that uses a carbon dioxide laser to precisely remove outer layers of damaged skin. The laser creates microscopic columns of thermal damage that penetrate deep into the skin, stimulating the body's natural healing process and promoting the production of new collagen. This results in smoother, tighter and more evenly toned skin.
What to expect
Focused beams of light are delivered to the surface of the skin and absorbed by the body’s tissue. These specific wavelengths raise the cellular temperature of the uppermost layers of the dermis causing it to evaporate. Minimally-invasive Co2 ablative laser treatments remove damaged skin revealing the fresh, blemish-free tissue beneath. Collagen production is also stimulated allowing for long-term results. The results can be long-lasting, making it a popular choice for skin rejuvenation. Contact the Skin Care Center to see if this may be the best option for you!
