What is CO2 laser resurfacing?
Patients in the community of San Diego and the surrounding cities are encouraged to ask their doctor about CO2 laser treatments. These devices use fractionated CO2 laser light to penetrate deep into the skin and stimulate collagen and elastin productive. This treatment also removes the damaged and dull skin cells on the surface of the skin to allow fresh, newer skin cells to come to the surface. The results? A glowing, refreshed, and youthful appearance for men and women. The concentrated beams of CO2 heat energy works deep within the skin to provide results that will last many months with a single treatment.
