Fractional CO2 Laser
Fractional CO2 Laser is a type of laser therapy that uses a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser to treat a variety of skin concerns. The "fractional" aspect refers to how the laser beam is divided into thousands of tiny beams that treat a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving surrounding tissue intact. This helps to accelerate the healing process and shorter recovery times compared to traditional CO2 lasers that treat the entire skin surface.
The fractional CO2 laser targets the skin's deeper layers, promoting collagen and elastin production, which is essential for improving skin texture and elasticity. The laser also helps to remove damaged skin cells, and the tiny microbeams cause controlled injury to the skin, stimulating a natural healing process that results in smoother, more youthful skin.
