CO2 Laser Treatment

Corrective treatments for improved confidence

If you are interested in the tightening, toning, and textural improvement of your skin, then deep CO2 laser resurfacing may be the procedure you’ve been looking for.

CO2 laser resurfacing is just one of the many non-surgical options we offer at About Face Skin Care that will help smooth fine lines and wrinkles, restore a more youthful appearance, and brighter complexion.

Laser resurfacing is a highly effective way to reduce the presence of mild to moderate signs of facial aging, without having to undergo an invasive surgical procedure. When you arrive for your consultation, we’ll talk through your various options, and help you choose the procedure that’s right for you.

The Helix CO2 Laser provides an unparalleled patient experience with three branded treatments available: CoolPeel, Sultra, and Fusion (an unique combination resurfacing treatment).

• CoolPeel: This high-peak-power delivers a no-downtime, advanced fractional CO2 ablation with minimal damage to surrounding tissue and without side effects seen with traditional methods.
• Sultra: Exclusive to Helix, this non-ablative 1570nm fractional laser gently helps restore skin texture, leaving behind a smooth, youthful complexion in all skin types.
• Fusion: By mixing both fractional ablative and non-ablative energy into one treatment, Fusion provides enhanced results and minimized healing time. Only Helix’s Fusion can combine three different types of CO2 pulses with non-ablative in variable mixed modes and depths for exceptional skin resurfacing customization.

With these protocols, Helix delivers unparalleled tailored treatment options for the widest variety of skin types, pigments, and conditions, including acne scarring, wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, and more.

What to Expect

Your CO2 laser treatment at About Face Aesthetics

Prior to your procedure, you will have a thorough consultation that will provide a comprehensive overview of the treatment. This will help you understand the full benefits, potential downtime, and what you can expect from your final aesthetic outcome.

The fractional CO2 laser interacts with the outermost layer of skin. This process concentrates on removing surface debris and damaged skin cells.

Our CO2 laser treatments encourage your body to respond by naturally producing more collagen and elastin. This results in new, healthy layers of skin that retain more moisture, resulting in an overall brighter complexion.

After the procedure, you can expect two to four days of redness in the treatment area. Some specific treatments will result in longer social downtime. All of these factors will be discussed with your provider and determined prior to treatment.
