CO2 Laser IN HENDERSON

CO2 laser before and after results are widely appreciated in cosmetics for skin rejuvenation: they eliminate fine wrinkles, age spots and other skin irregularities caused by sun damage or by acne, or just the natural erosion of the upper layers of skin. The goal is to cause some intended damage in the skin’s top layers to transform some of the energy delivered by the laser to thermal sores that trigger new collagen formation in the dermis below. As that newly formed collagen tightens the skin, the texture is improved and feels more youthful. CO2 lasers are preferred for these kinds of procedures because they are generally more reliable than other lasers for skin treatments and call for less recuperation time (downtime) than other kinds of invasive surgeries.

While working with a laser, one of our trained professionals will run the CO2 laser over a specified treatment area in a pattern until it has uniformly covered the area already outlined by the patient prior to the procedure. Some people compare the sensation of the CO2 laser to a light sunburn. The CO2 laser before and aftereffects depict that the treatment helps different people in different ways. Each experience differs depending on the skin type and the area being addressed. It can take several treatment sessions to achieve the best results, and the exact number of sessions can only be decided once we start the treatments and see how well your skin is reacting to it. Wondering what CO2 laser recovery is like?After the laser procedure, patients might experience mild reddening of the skin and swelling around the area, which should subside within just a few days.

Make sure you follow good post-treatment care! These include the use of moisturizers, avoiding sun exposure and gently cleansing your skin – all this and more will be outlined in your post-treatment care instructions from our professionals.
