How does the CO2 Laser work?
The Fraxel laser (fractional laser) irradiates the skin with a very fine and precise laser beam, whose split light pulses penetrate into the epidermis (upper skin) and dermis (middle skin layer). The Fraxel laser works on two different wavelengths, allowing it to penetrate into deeper skin layers and is very gentle on the skin.
The laser treatment creates tiny injuries in the respective skin layers. These micro-wounds stimulate the skin to regenerate and produce collagen and elastin. Blood circulation is improved and more elastic fibers are formed. In addition, old or damaged skin cells are removed, the skin becomes firmer and looks generally rejuvenated.
CO2 Laser – Treatment Procedure
After a consultation in which we discuss together which areas of skin need to be treated, the actual treatment with the CO2 laser takes place.
Your skin is first rubbed with a local anesthetic in the form of a salve.
After an application time of around 10-15 minutes, the affected areas of skin are treated point by point with the laser handpiece. The treatment takes about 15 to 45 minutes.
CO2 Laser – Aftercare
After Fraxel laser treatment, your skin may be slightly reddened or swollen, but this should subside after a few days. The skin usually peels after the treatment, this is part of the normal regeneration process. In the period after the treatment, it is important that you avoid sun exposure and use UV protection. Cooling and nourishing creams can speed up the healing process. Your skin needs around 4-6 weeks to regenerate before further treatment is possible.
