Each session is brief, and you can expect to see results in a relatively short timeframe. Most patients experience brief redness and swelling for under half an hour post-treatment.
CO2 laser resurfacing effectively rejuvenates skin by removing damaged layers and boosting collagen. It smooths texture, reduces wrinkles, and improves scars, with visible results appearing quickly.

Why CO2 Laser Resurfacing
CO2 laser resurfacing is a powerful treatment for wrinkles, scars, and skin texture concerns. By removing damaged layers and stimulating collagen, it enhances skin smoothness and elasticity, with long-lasting results.
This advanced laser precisely targets fine lines, sun damage, and acne scars, promoting new skin growth. Unlike fillers, which restore volume, CO2 resurfacing refines texture for a youthful glow. The procedure involves controlled energy pulses to resurface the skin, with minimal downtime. With expert care, results are tailored to your needs for a refreshed, radiant complexion.
Before
After
CO2 laser resurfacing can effectively treat a variety of skin concerns, including:
Fine lines and deep wrinkles
Acne scars and other facial scars
Sun damage and age spots
Uneven skin tone and pigmentation
Skin laxity and loss of elasticity

Stretch marks
It’s a powerful treatment for overall skin rejuvenation, promoting collagen production and revealing smoother, firmer, and more even-toned skin.
How does microneedling & other treatments
Laser resurfacing, microneedling, and other treatments all improve skin texture and tone, but they work in different ways.
CO2 laser resurfacing is the most effective option for collagen stimulation and deep skin rejuvenation. Microneedling and chemical peels provide milder improvements with less downtime. Your choice depends on your skin goals and tolerance for recovery time.
What should you consider
Before getting CO2 laser resurfacing, consider your skin type, as it’s best suited for fair to medium tones and those with deep wrinkles, scars, or sun damage. Recovery takes 7–14 days, with redness, swelling, and peeling, while full results develop over months.
Sun protection is crucial before and after treatment to prevent pigmentation issues. Though highly effective, potential side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and rare pigmentation changes. A consultation is essential to assess suitability, especially if you have active acne, certain skin conditions, or recent use of certain medications.
