How does CO2 Fractionated Laser Resurfacing work?
CO2 Fractional Resurfacing treatments targets age spots/sunspots, fine lines around the eyes, and other pigment irregularities such as melasma and uneven skin tone. The treatment uses microscopic laser columns that penetrate deep into your skin. Only a fraction of tissue is treated at a time, leaving surrounding tissue intact, resulting in faster healing and results that stem from collagen remodeling.

A few days of downtime with some redness and swelling is associated with treatment but the results are long lasting and dramatic.
