Your Co2 Laser Resurfacing Process

Skin Consultations are an essential part of your CO2 Laser Resurfacing process as it helps our skin care specialist understand your needs and personalize your Co2 Laser Treatment to your skin.

After your skin has been thoroughly prepped and numbed, our skin care specialist will begin by applying the co2 laser precisely across your skin's surface in a gride-like pattern. Different Laser applications may be utilized during this process to effectively target delicate or more problematic areas.

After your Laser Resurfacing treatment is complete, our skin specialist will ensure you understand and follow post-operative care instructions properly. You will have a dedicated team checking in on your healing process every step of the way.
