After treatment, the skin looks sunburned and may be slightly swollen, but patients report little or no discomfort post-treatment. During post-care, patients should limit sun exposure and wear protective clothing.
Many patients see improvement one week after treatment, with maximum results visible in 1-3 months. Patients may apply makeup five days after treatment.
The CO2 Laser’s unique wavelength and deep penetration into the skin can dramatically improve the appearance of aging skin. Other benefits of this treatment include:
- Tiny holes that enable safe treatment and rapid recovery
- Deep treatment that provides results in a single session
- Controlled energy that allows for maximum results with greater patient comfort
