What is the fractional CO2 laser?
The fractional CO2 laser is a safe, effective, and precise dermatologist's method. In this method, the fractionated laser uses very short, intense laser beams to remove the skin's outer layer. The process induces the growth of the young-looking epidermis, stimulates collagen production and remodelling of the dermis.

Procedure
The fractional CO2 laser is an outpatient process that starts by applying local anaesthesia to numb your facial skin. If extensive resurfacing is required, general anaesthesia can also be given. An intense beam of laser light removes the outer layer of skin (epidermis), and at the same time, the dermis heats up. The heating of the dermis stimulates the production of collagen over time. The process of laser resurfacing with CO2 results in smoother and toned skin texture.
How long does the effect last?
The results after the CO2 laser are restrained and progressive. After the recovery process patient will feel a noticeable improvement in skin texture and quality. Correction of wrinkles is less evident than the improvement of skin tone, quality and consistency. The results of CO2 laser last for years but can reverse by the new sun damage. With ageing and an unhealthy lifestyle, the wrinkles and fine lines will continue to appear and will need revision of the treatment.
