CO2 Fractional Laser
Scars and acne often hinder self-confidence. Besides making you feel insecure, acne can also badly hurt and, in the worst scenario, leave stubborn redness and marks on the skin. These imperfections are visible in wrinkles, scarring, photodamage, skin tone, creepiness, texture, and laxity.
Luckily, you no longer have to live with these ugly acne scars. With Co2 fractional laser treatment, a pimple-free and flawless face is no longer a dream. It is the laser technology of choice to eliminate damaged skin and expose a fresh layer of healthy skin.
Also referred to as Laser Resurfacing, CO2 Fractional Laser Treatment functions by healing deep in the skin layer. It is a non-surgical treatment created to heal diversified skin problems such as wrinkles, acne scars, pigmentation, fine lines, and many more. It can be safely practiced on the neck, face, upper lips, under eyes, chin and arms. Laser fractional treatments treat just a fraction of the skin, leaving out bridges of fresh skin that support therapy and diminish the recovery period. This helps you to quickly return to regular activities and routine life. This procedure aids you to augment and getting rid of undesirable miscellaneous skin imperfections such as scars, blemishes, wrinkles, brown spots and more.

CO2 Fractional Laser benefits in recovering damaged skin from sunburn are worth praising. Research has shown that there has been tremendous development in wrinkles and scars through the application of lasers. Some of the major benefits of this Co2 treatment include:
This treatment is best for patients who want to minimize hyperpigmentation, acne scars, fine lines, and wrinkles. In such a case, CO2 Fractional laser treatment will intensively help reactivate and boost collagen production to reveal new, fresh, and healthy skin.
However, the fractional CO2 laser is not suitable for everyone. People with extensive breakouts, exposed wounds, and various infections on the face are suggested to refrain from this skin procedure. Moreover, individuals who consume isotretinoin orally should also avoid the process as it risks safety and health.
CO2 Fractional Laser Treatment involves applying a laser light beam over the exposed skin to stabilise and settle the collagen fibers in the deeper dermal layers. This treatment follows the principle of fractional laser to induce re-epithelialisation of the skin utilising the keratinocytes in the hair follicles. Moreover, this therapy stimulates the deeper skin layers, improving collagen and elastic effects.
Amidst the ongoing treatment process, the CO2 laser light is split into many small fractions of light that are focused on penetrating deep into the layers of skin. These small shafts of light break the damaged skin cells and create space for fresh skin cells to revitalise. With time, your body’s self-healing process discards the dead skin cells, leaving you with smooth and silky rejuvenated fresh skin.
The actual Fractional laser process takes just twenty minutes to complete. However, the preparation and post-laser treatment time take 1.5 hours. The skin is made numb right before the laser treatment initiates. When the treatment is over, the skin settles down using the cooling treatment, which usually takes around 20 minutes.
As soon as the skin heals, approximately three weeks later, patients will witness the part of their skin turning very slightly pink. During this period, skin texture is incredibly restored, and skin tone is perfectly adjusted to its natural complexion. Complete results can be noticed 3-6 months after initial treatment once the skin has wholly healed.
Skincare experts recommend that immediate post-laser treatment include covering the treated skin with Vaseline (or any recommended product you are prescribed to use) and applying cold packs. Cold compresses are the perfect treatment for comfort.
Not really. It might be just a bit uneasy for some people. Yet, Aesthetic International’s expertly trained professionals numb out the skin with a prescribed anesthetic 45 minutes before the treatment to avoid possible discomfort. Therefore, the patient just feels a slightly warm sensation only at the moment the laser is applied.
Yes, there is downtime associated with a CO2 laser treatment. Plan for 7-10 days of healing before you go out in public. During the recovery process, your skin will naturally scab and peel off 2-7 days after treatment and will be slightly pink for the next 3-4 weeks.
It is a quick procedure that lasts for only 15 to 20 minutes. However, anesthetic cream may be applied 30 to 45 minutes prior to the treatment.
The incidence of side effects is generally very low for CO2 laser resurfacing. Laser surgeons at Aesthetic International have a deep knowledge of psychology and skin structure. They use the treatment best according to accepted parameters, making fractional CO2 laser resurfacing an extremely safe procedure.
Once the skin has completely healed, full results can be seen 3-6 months after the initial treatment.
Once the treatment is received, improvements from CO2 laser treatment are genuinely lasting and can be seen for many years.
Instantly after the treatment, you may feel your skin has become sensitive to touch. It is important to use a protective gel (such as Aquaphor) to keep the skin covered at all times right after your treatment. You can plan on a quick recovery period of approximately 5 to 10 days.
The fractional CO2 laser price differs from case to case, depending on variable factors such as the number of sessions required, skin condition, the clinic, etc. Therefore, it is important to receive a quote in the consultation session to have a reasonable understanding of the cost of CO2 laser in Dubai.
