The fractional CO2 laser resurfacing treatment is an excellent option to get your skin back to where it was before acne had damaged it.
Many confuse fractional CO2 laser with Fraxel, and despite its similarities, it is an outdated technology. However, the technology used at Cosmedix Clinic is a specialised ablative resurfacing laser that leaves you with less downtime and less risks but all the benefits. The fractional resurfacing laser lays down a pattern of tiny ablative wounds and leaves small bridges of untouched skin to speed up the healing process. The result provides regeneration of new skin cells in combination with collagen stimulation that will improve the appearance of acne scarred skin. Here at Cosmedix Clinic, we understand that each client is unique therefore it is not about the laser used, it is about the experience we have. Our skin specialists analyze your skin to approach the scars with the best method possible: this is how we achieve the optimal results. |

A single fractional CO2 laser resurfacing treatment may make a significant difference in the skin in terms of firmness and smoothness. However depending on the skin type, condition of the skin, expected results and texture quality, upto three treatments may be required to achieve the full effect of outcomes desired.
Is there any downtime?
As with any laser resurfacing treatment, an initial period of physical skin change and healing will occur. Clients usually experience 3-5 days of redness, swelling, crusting of the skin and minor bleeding. A stay at home approach throughout the downtime period is usually followed.
Are there any risks?
Due to the heat and resurfacing effects of the CO2 laser treatment, the skin may experience temporary post trauma pigmentation changes. Clients of darker skin types are more prone to this but a regime of pigmentation inhibiting skin preparation routine help to prevent this. If in the circumstance, excess pigment is noticed weeks after the treatment, Cosmedix Clinic will provide complimentary Laser Toning treatments to correct such side effects. Other extremely rare side effects will be discussed on an individual basis during your initial visit to the clinic.
