What is Fractional CO2 Laser and How Does It Work?
Fractional CO2 laser is an advanced technology that uses a high-energy beam of light to precisely target tissue. The CO2 laser generates a beam of light that, absorbed by water in skin cells, causes controlled vaporization of the surface layer of the epidermis. This process, called ablation, triggers skin renewal.
The Magic of “Fractional”
The "fractional" nature of the CO2 laser makes it less invasive. The beam is divided into microbeams that create "microthermal treatment zones" surrounded by healthy tissue. This fragmentation accelerates healing and reduces recovery times, stimulating the skin to repair micro-lesions and produce new, vital tissue.
Collagen Stimulation: The Secret to Youth
The heat of the laser penetrates the dermis, stimulating fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastinThese proteins, essential for the structure and elasticity of the skin, decrease with age, causing wrinkles and sagging. The Fractional CO2 Laser reactivates this production, triggering a skin rejuvenation from within, making the skin more toned, elastic and compact in the following weeks and months.
One Treatment, Multiple Solutions: Who Is It For?
The Fractional CO2 Laser is versatile and corrects a wide range of imperfections, acting on different levels of the skin. Its main applications include:
Goodbye to Acne Scars and Marks
The Fractional CO2 Laser is effective for atrophic scars, such as acne scars. The ablative action smoothes the edges, while collagen stimulation fills the scars, making the skin smoother and more even. The results improve the patient's self-esteem.
A Skin Without Spots
Skin blemishes (solar lentigo, age spots) are caused by excess melanin. The Fractional CO2 Laser selectively vaporizes cells with excess pigment. The skin regenerates with a more even and luminous complexion, lightening or eliminating blemishes.
Fighting Wrinkles and Signs of Time
The Fractional CO2 Laser is an effective solution against skin aging, treating:
- Fine and medium wrinkles: like “crow’s feet” and “barcode”.
- Deeper wrinkles: on the forehead and nasolabial folds, attenuated by the tightening effect and new collagen.
- Skin laxity: improves tone and firmness of the face, neck and décolleté, with a non-surgical lifting effect.
