How Does CO2 Resurfacing Work?

CO2 skin resurfacing works by utilizing a high-intensity carbon dioxide (CO2) laser to precisely remove layers of damaged or aged skin. During the procedure, the laser emits short pulses of light energy that vaporize the targeted skin cells, layer by layer. This controlled removal of damaged tissue prompts the body’s natural healing process, stimulating collagen production and encouraging the growth of new, healthier skin cells.

The CO2 laser’s ability to precisely target specific areas makes it effective for addressing a variety of skin concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, age spots, acne scars, and uneven skin texture. By promoting collagen remodeling, CO2 resurfacing not only improves the appearance of existing skin issues but also enhances overall skin elasticity and firmness, resulting in a smoother, more youthful complexion.

How Long Does CO2 Resurfacing Last?

The results of CO2 skin resurfacing can be long-lasting, but the duration of the effects varies from person to person and depends on factors such as the individual’s skin condition, lifestyle, and sun protection habits. Generally, the improvements achieved through CO2 resurfacing can last for several years.

However, it’s important to note that while CO2 resurfacing can significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and other skin imperfections, it does not stop the natural aging process. As time passes, new wrinkles and signs of aging may gradually develop. To maintain the results and prolong the benefits of CO2 resurfacing, it’s crucial to follow a good skincare routine, protect the skin from sun exposure, and consider periodic maintenance treatments as recommended by your healthcare provider. Regular use of sunscreen and proper skincare practices can help preserve the rejuvenated appearance of the skin for a longer time.

Three easy steps to CO2 Resurfacing

Pre-Treatment

Before undergoing CO2 skin resurfacing, patients typically need to follow pre-treatment instructions provided by their healthcare provider. These instructions might include discontinuing certain medications and skincare products, especially those containing retinoids, to minimize the risk of complications. Patients are also advised to avoid excessive sun exposure and use sunscreen to protect their skin in the weeks leading up to the procedure.

Post-Treatment

After CO2 skin resurfacing, patients should diligently follow post-treatment care instructions provided by their healthcare provider. These instructions may include applying prescribed ointments or creams to the treated area to aid in healing and minimize discomfort. Patients should avoid direct sun exposure, wear sunblock, and protect the skin to prevent complications and maintain the results. It's also important to attend follow-up appointments to monitor the healing process and address any concerns, ensuring optimal and long-lasting outcomes from the CO2 resurfacing procedure.

Downtime

CO2 skin resurfacing typically involves a downtime period during which patients may experience redness, swelling, and peeling. This downtime can vary based on the depth of the treatment and individual healing factors. In the initial days after the procedure, patients should expect their skin to be sensitive, and makeup application should be avoided until the skin has sufficiently healed. While downtime is temporary, these side effects are part of the natural healing process and subside gradually, revealing rejuvenated and smoother skin beneath.
