What Is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?

CO2 Laser Resurfacing is a non-surgical treatment that uses carbon dioxide laser technology to precisely remove damaged outer skin layers while stimulating new collagen production underneath. At NewSkin, we offer both traditional and fractional resurfacing options, including the Cartessa Tetra Pro with CoolPeel and advanced systems from DEKA, such as the DEKA Duo, allowing us to tailor your treatment to your skin’s specific needs.

This customizable procedure targets a wide range of concerns, from fine lines and wrinkles to acne scars, sun damage, enlarged pores, and uneven texture. Depending on your goals, it can be performed as a full-face treatment or used to target specific areas such as the eyes, mouth, or neck.

What to Expect During CO2 Laser Resurfacing

Before treatment, your skin will be numbed with a topical anesthetic. Depending on the level of resurfacing, you may also receive additional comfort measures. The laser session typically takes 30 to 90 minutes. You may feel warmth or a mild prickling sensation as the laser targets the skin. Our expert team ensures your comfort at every stage.

Following treatment, you may experience temporary redness, warmth, or a sandpaper-like texture, which will subside as your skin begins its natural renewal process.

Types of CO2 Resurfacing We Offer

Fractionated laser resurfacing: A highly customizable CO2 treatment that optimally balances skin improvement while minimizing downtime and risk.
CoolPeel: A superficial, no-downtime option that delivers the benefits of CO2 resurfacing treatment without the extended healing period.
DEKA Duo: A versatile fractional CO2 laser platform that offers customizable settings for various skin concerns and downtime preferences.

We may combine modalities or suggest a staged treatment plan for optimal, layered results.

C02 Laser Resurfacing FAQs

Can I combine CO2 Laser Resurfacing with other treatments?

Yes, many patients choose to combine CO2 Laser Resurfacing with treatments like BOTOX, dermal fillers, or microneedling for enhanced results. We’ll help you create a safe and effective treatment plan.

How soon can I wear makeup after the procedure?

This depends on the depth of your treatment. With CoolPeel, you may resume makeup within a day or two. Deeper treatments may require a week or more before applying cosmetics.

Is CO2 Laser Resurfacing safe for darker skin tones?

CO2 lasers can be used on some darker skin tones, but with caution. We’ll assess your skin type during your consultation and recommend the safest, most effective options.

Can CO2 Laser Resurfacing help with surgical scars?

Yes, this treatment can reduce the appearance of surgical scars by stimulating collagen and improving skin texture. We’ll evaluate your scars to determine the best approach.

Will I need more than one treatment?

Some patients see excellent results with a single session, while others benefit from a series of treatments depending on the severity of their concerns and treatment depth.

Does CO2 Laser Resurfacing tighten skin?

Yes, by stimulating collagen production, CO2 Laser Resurfacing can result in firmer, tighter skin over time—especially with deeper resurfacing sessions.
