CO2 Laser Skin Treatments
At Cosmetic Doctors, Skin and Hair Clinic, we offer CO2 Laser Skin Treatments as an advanced option for skin resurfacing. CO2 laser technology is an ablative laser treatment used in cosmetic dermatology to address deeper skin concerns by supporting dermal processes and collagen activity.
Advanced Skin Resurfacing with CO2 Laser
CO2 Laser Skin Treatments work by delivering controlled laser energy to the epidermis and dermis, creating precise micro-injuries that trigger skin response. This process supports collagen activity and dermal processes.
CO2 laser resurfacing may assist with improving the appearance of fine lines, photoaged skin, pigmentation and post-blemish skin texture. It is also used to support skin tone evenness and long-term improvement in skin appearance.
Potential Applications for CO2 Laser
Skin Resurfacing and Renewal
CO2 laser removes damaged surface skin while encouraging deeper dermal processes, supporting the appearance of smoother skin.
Fine Lines and Surface Changes
By supporting collagen activity, CO2 laser may assist with improving the appearance of facial lines linked to ageing.
Post-Blemish Texturing
CO2 laser is used to address the appearance of skin marking and texture irregularities following past skin congestion.
Photoaged Skin and Pigmentation
Targeted laser energy assists in managing the look of sun-affected skin and supports melanin processes related to pigmentation concerns.
Long-Term Skin Support
As an ablative laser treatment, CO2 laser supports dermal processes and skin appearance over time.
Key Considerations
CO2 laser technology is considered one of the more intensive skin resurfacing techniques within laser dermatology. Recovery involves a period of social downtime while the skin heals, and this varies depending on treatment depth. Many patients choose this treatment for its potential to deliver noticeable skin changes compared to non-ablative options.
How CO2 Laser Works
CO2 laser resurfacing uses an ablative laser to remove controlled layers of damaged skin. Fractional laser technology allows treatment of targeted areas while leaving surrounding skin intact, supporting healing processes. This approach promotes collagen activity and dermal processes over time.
1. Consultation and Assessment
Your practitioner assesses skin concerns, medical history and expectations to determine whether CO2 laser is appropriate. A mandatory cooling-off period applies between your initial consultation and the procedure for some patients.
2. Laser Treatment
The CO2 laser is applied to targeted areas using either fractional or fully ablative techniques, depending on skin condition and treatment goals.
3. Recovery and Aftercare
CO2 laser recovery varies depending on treatment depth. Your practitioner will provide a detailed timeline and post-procedure care instructions to support healing. Expected downtime includes redness, swelling and skin peeling during the healing phase.
*CO2 Laser Skin Treatments are commonly chosen by patients in Sydney seeking improvement in skin texture, tone and signs of ageing under professional medical care.
