CO2 Fractional Laser Resurfacing

Serving Kansas City & Lee's Summit, Missouri

 

CO2 Fractional Laser Resurfacing is an esthetic laser treatment that lifts away years from your face. It can help reverse the early signs of aging as well as help counteract years of sun damage or acne scarring. It often provides noticeable results with a single treatment. Results improve for weeks after a treatment and with successive treatments until a maximum improvement is reached.

Schedule a consultation at Summit Plastic Surgery & Med Spa to learn more details about this powerful noninvasive cosmetic treatment.

How Fractional Laser Resurfacing Works

Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing works by creating thousands of microscopic perforations, leaving the skin around each of these perforations intact. The perforations are deep enough to stimulate new collagen growth that improves your skin's texture and tone and fights fine lines and wrinkles. Because the perforations are small, your skin heals from the edge of these tiny holes very rapidly, often within 24 hours.

Advantages of Fractional Laser Resurfacing

Not only is the healing time shortened considerable from traditional CO2 laser resurfacing, but fractional laser resurfacing also comes with a lower risk of complications.

Despite its short healing time and lack of complications, fractional laser resurfacing can make a major impact on your appearance. Fractional laser resurfacing performs these dramatic improvements in the tone and texture of your skin:

• Clears sun-damage
• Smoothes fine lines and wrinkles
• Shrinks the appearance of pores
• Blends uneven pigmentation

For most people, these results are better than other noninvasive laser or light treatments that have a similar healing time.

Fractional CO2 laser treatments are safe and effective without injections or surgery. You can expect your skin to be flushed and red after the treatment- something similar to sunburn. These symptoms are a normal part of the healing process and should improve quickly.

At the time of your consultation you will meet with Kansas City plastic surgeon Dr. Matt Chhatre and Keri Eichhorn, licensed esthetician to discuss before and after skin care to prepare and maintain your results.
