Fractional CO2 laser
Fractional CO2 laser treatment is an advanced, non-invasive procedure designed to rejuvenate the skin, reduce scars and improve overall skin texture. Utilizing the ecomed fractional CO2 laser, this technique promotes collagen production and enhances the skin’s appearance, making it an excellent choice for both men and women seeking youthful, flawless skin.
Procedure
The fractional laser treatment typically involves the following steps:
- Consultation: A thorough assessment of your skin concerns and goals is conducted, allowing us to tailor the treatment to your specific needs.
- Preparation: The skin is cleansed and a topical anesthetic is applied to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
- Laser Treatment: The ecomed fractional CO2 laser is gently applied to the targeted areas of the skin. The procedure usually takes about 15-30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. During the session, patients may experience a mild burning sensation
- Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, patients may experience mild redness and swelling, similar to a sunburn. The duration of this redness varies based on the parameters used for each specific condition. Cold compresses are applied to soothe the treated skin, followed by the application of a restorative and sunscreen cream. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to optimize healing and results.
Indications
Fractional CO2 laser is effective for a variety of skin concerns, including:
- Scar Reduction: Effectively reduces the visibility of scars from acne or other injuries by promoting new skin cell growth.
- Rejuvenation: Improves the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and sun damage, giving your skin a more youthful and radiant look.
- Improved skin tone: Improvement of pigmentation issues and evening out skin tone
- Stretch marks: Treatment of both white and red stretch marks
- Improved skin texture: Minimization of enlarged pores and overall improvement in skin texture, making it smoother and more even.
- Long-lasting results: The stimulation of collagen continues to improve skin appearance over time, providing lasting results
Who is a good candidate?
Fractional CO2 laser treatment is suitable for individuals with various skin types and concerns, including:
- Signs of aging (fine lines, wrinkles)
- Uneven skin texture or tone
- Scars or stretch marks
- Sun damage or age spots
Number of Sessions
The number of sessions required depends on the specific issues being treated, the extent of the problem and whether fractional laser treatment is combined with other therapies, such as autologous mesotherapy (PRF). Sessions are typically repeated every 3-4 weeks.
For skin rejuvenation: 2-4 sessions are generally recommended
For stretch marks: 4-6 sessions may be required.
Each session builds upon the last, enhancing cumulative results.
Combination with other treatments
Fractional laser treatment can be effectively combined with various aesthetic procedures, including neurotoxin injections, hyaluronic acid fillers, threads, and mesotherapy (heterologous or autologous). Combining treatments usually yields superior, more comprehensive results.
At our clinic, we create treatment protocols to ensure that each therapy complements the others, maximizing the overall effectiveness.
