Top 5 Key Benefits of Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing

The fractional CO2 laser uses a targeted laser beam to remove superficial layers of skin, which helps address various cosmetic skin concerns, including fine lines, crow’s feet, acne scars, age spots, and blotchy skin.

Fractional CO2 laser in Bangalore attracts people from all over India because of the quality treatment at a budget-cost option. If someone wants to improve their aging skin concerns and is finding it challenging to undergo surgical options because of cost or downtime commitment, fractional CO2 laser resurfacing is a step ahead better treatment than traditional laser. Before diving deeper into the concept of fractional CO2 laser, it is worth noting that fractional CO2 laser ablates/ removes only a part of the skin surface that it treats, giving more uniform results. Moreover, a certain degree of healthy, non-ablated skin is left behind after the fractional laser treatment, the healing time is typically faster, and there is very little chance of complications.

What is Fractional CO2 Laser treatment?  

Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing only treats part of the skin at once, where problems significantly appear; however, fractions are evenly spaced throughout the targeted areas so that a patient can achieve a uniform effect.

What Does Fractional CO2 Laser Involve?   

It involves a fractional approach to drill narrow columns of holes into the skin without affecting the surrounding tissue. However, recovery is faster and results are outstanding, as it precisely removes the top layers of skin and regenerates collagen and elastin production, resulting in more youthful skin.

Note: A big plus of fractional CO2 laser is its character of using a targeted beam of light to remove superficial layers of skin only, however, healthy tissue underneath the skin can still be found just between the microthermal zones where heat was applied. However, these tissues can still provide the cells and proteins required for a faster recovery.

Choosing only a board-certified dermatologist/ plastic surgeon to get the laser treatment is always recommended to avoid compromised results or unwanted side effects.

Dr. Karishma Kagodu, a board-certified celebrity surgeon, discusses the top benefits of Fractional CO2 Laser in this blog post to better understand the efficacy of the treatment. So, let’s get started:

It Improves acne scars and spots

Fractional CO2 is an effective treatment to reduce acne scars, age spots, and pigmentation issues. If someone is dealing with practically bad acne scars, in that case, the CO2 laser can significantly improve the scar concerns, a perfect option to treat uneven skin tone, texture, and blemishes without the hassle of longer recovery or harsh side effects.

It Addresses wrinkles

Fractional CO2 laser addresses wrinkles and fine lines, as the treatment helps remove the top layer of skin and replaces it with new, healthy skin cells by accelerating collagen and elastin production.

It offers uniform coloration

It helps improve skin discoloration and blotchy skin, enabling your skin color to blend into itself seamlessly. However, it improves overall skin appearance and firmness.

It repairs skin damage

Fractional CO2 laser also helps improve scarring, sun damage, and associated issues like rosacea. After the initial post-treatment effect, i.e., redness, the skin heals faster, redness subsides, and the treatment effect perfectly combats a range of skin concerns.

It has a short downtime

As the treatment of CO2 laser only targets the top layers of skin, the healthy tissues underneath the skin help achieve faster healing and quick results. As a result, patients only have to undergo a shorter recovery period, usually 6-7 days. The patient can resume normal day-to-day activities within 6-9 days post-treatment.
