What Is CO2 Laser Treatment?
There are many types of laser treatments available today, including the powerful CO2 laser. CO2 lasers utilize targeted light energy that is absorbed by water in the skin, resulting in a thermal effect. As thermal energy heats up the dermis (middle layer of the skin), collagen production is stimulated, while superficial thermal energy on the skin’s surface (epidermis) vaporizes unwanted pigment or other concerns.
CO2 lasers offer diverse benefits to patients, improving a variety of skin concerns, including:
- Sun damage
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Hyperpigmentation
- Acne scars
- Tone and textural concerns
What Are the Benefits of CO2 Laser Treatments?
CO2 laser treatments are always customized to the patient’s needs and goals, but possible benefits include:
- Improvement of surface skin issues
- Increased collagen production for youthful skin and tissues
- Non-invasive with little risk of scarring (for appropriate candidates)
- Minimal downtime
- Long-lasting results
Who Is a Candidate for CO2 Laser Treatments?
If you are looking for a non-surgical treatment for fine lines and wrinkles, lackluster skin, pigmentation concerns, acne scarring, aged hands, and more, you may be a candidate for CO2 laser treatments.
Ideal CO2 candidates are in good health, do not smoke or are willing to quit, and have reasonable expectations for results. Additionally, depending on the requested treatment, CO2 lasers are generally used on patients with skin tones I-III on the Fitzpatrick scale, as darker skin tones may be more susceptible to scarring or adverse reactions from the laser therapy. Your experienced laser technician will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and skin tone.
To learn if you’re a good candidate for CO2 laser resurfacing, schedule a consultation with our aesthetician today by calling (832) 891-9938.
What Are My CO2 Laser Treatment Options?
The Phoenix CO2 laser system is equipped with multiple handpieces, allowing our aesthetic laser specialists to tailor treatments to your exact needs. Each handpiece is designed to treat specific issues throughout the body, including the following options.
Micro Laser Peel
Ideal for patients seeking a lighter peel, the CO2 microfacial gently removes a thin layer of skin to enhance texture and restore a radiant, youthful appearance. The micro laser peel is a step up from chemical peels, but with less downtime than laser skin resurfacing.
Skin Resurfacing
CO2 laser resurfacing offers a comprehensive rejuvenation for even the most advanced skin concerns, including deep wrinkles and creases, sun damage, acne scarring, and uneven pigmentation.
Hand Rejuvenation
Similar to other modes of the Phoenix CO2 laser, hand rejuvenation settings remove damaged, aged skin from the epidermis of the hands, revealing smoother, unblemished skin.
Vaginal Rejuvenation
By stimulating the healing powers of collagen, a brief CO2 laser session can improve vaginal conditions such as dryness, itching, and atrophy.
Common Combination Treatments
Since your laser treatment will be fully custom, your aesthetic technician can recommend the best combination of treatments to help you reach your goals. Some potential procedures you can combine with your CO2 laser treatment include:
- Wellness Treatments: As collagen takes time to build up in your system and reveal your final results, undergoing wellness treatments alongside your laser therapy can help promote beauty from the inside out. IV therapy with our Designer Drips, such as our Glow-Up Drip, helps promote healthy skin, hair, and nails while slowing cellular aging.
- Injectables: As key pieces of any non-surgical aesthetic program, dermal filler injections or neurotoxins are excellent ways to further customize your results. Restore volume throughout the face and lips, or reduce the appearance of forehead lines for fantastic results with little downtime.
What Can I Expect From CO2 Laser Recovery?
Recovery and downtime guidelines will vary for each type of CO2 laser treatment, as well as between individual patients and treatment plans. For treatment on the face and hands, sun exposure will be strictly prohibited, as this can affect results. In most cases, you’ll need to avoid the sun for a few weeks, and it’s always recommended to use a strong SPF. For vaginal rejuvenation, patients may be asked to refrain from sexual activity for a week. You may experience some swelling and redness, which should dissipate after a few days.
For deeper skin resurfacing treatments, a period of scabbing and subsequent shedding of damaged skin will occur. This process can take anywhere from one to two weeks to a month, depending on the depth and severity of the concerns. Your laser technician will provide you with detailed instructions for aftercare and recovery.
When Will I See My CO2 Laser Results?
Most CO2 laser results take some time to appear, either due to the skin shedding process or as collagen takes time to build up in the tissues. Improvements in skin tone and texture start to reveal themselves after the old skin has been shed, typically after about a week. Whereas full results, including wrinkle and acne scar improvement, can take a few months.
How Much Does CO2 Laser Treatment Cost?
Your CO2 laser treatment will be tailored to address your specific concerns and aesthetic goals. As such, the cost of your CO2 laser treatment will depend on the specifics of your treatment plan. Your aesthetic technician will provide you with an accurate cost estimate during your consultation.
