CO2 Laser Treatment in Mumbai

Skin issues frequently get in the way of important life events. Acne can make you feel insecure, hurt and, in the worst cases, leave permanent marks, redness, and scars on your skin.

If you don’t want to, you don’t have to live with skin problems. Today, some treatments can help you get rid of them, leaving your face clear and flawless. One of the safe and effective techniques is Fractional CO2 Laser or Skin Resurfacing. It entails the use of a laser to remove the skin’s outer layers, revealing the fresh, gleaming skin beneath.

The fractional CO2 laser is a non-surgical procedure that can be used to treat acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, and other skin issues with no downtime. It involves the removal of the damaged outer layer of skin, which stimulates collagen formation and results in firmer, healthier, and younger-looking skin.

CO2 Laser Treatment can be done for:

Fractional CO2 laser treatment can help people who want to reduce the appearance of acne scarring, fine wrinkles, pigmentation, and other skin issues. It can, however, treat a wide range of skin problems, such as:

• Age-related blemishes
• Oil glands that have enlarged due to open pores (especially around the nose)
• Scars from acne
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Hyperpigmentation
• Sagging skin is caused by sun damage.
• The disparity in skin tone
• Warts and moles

The laser is most commonly used to treat the face, but it can also be used to treat the neck, hands, and arms.

Advantages of CO2 Laser Treatment

– Because the CO2 laser is not pigment-selective, it can treat both pigmented and non-pigmented skin lesions.

– Tissue-specific, high-precision therapy

– Consumables are reasonably priced.

– Non-invasive, non-hazardous, and FDA-approved.

– The shortest possible downtime

How does the CO2 laser treatment work?

Ablative lasers, such as the CO2 laser, remove skin layers. It warms the underlying skin while removing the skin’s thin outer layer (epidermis). This encourages the formation of new collagen fibers. As the epidermis repairs and regrows, the treated skin appears clearer, smoother, and tighter. Your provider will select the laser type based on the issue being treated as well as your cosmetic goals.

How does the procedure take place?

Before performing a fractional CO2 laser operation, these pre-treatment guidelines should be followed.

1) Retinol-containing products should be avoided because they can alter the outcome.

2) Avoid excessive sun exposure for a week before the laser treatment.

3) Avoid ibuprofen and aspirin because they can cause prolonged clotting.

4) Give up smoking for at least two weeks before and after treatment. This increases your chances of avoiding complications and aids your body’s healing process.

Procedure

The skin is cleansed to remove excess oil, grime, or bacteria.

30 to 45 minutes before the fractional CO2 laser treatment, a local anesthetic cream is applied to the problem area. It only takes 15 to 20 minutes to complete the procedure. This is used to reduce pain and make you more comfortable during the procedure. If you have a large area of skin to treat, your cosmetologist may advise you to take a sedative or pain reliever.

Your skin specialist will begin the therapy by using the laser with pre-programmed parameters. A scanning pattern is used to move the laser steadily across the skin’s specified area. It removes the damaged skin’s thin outer layers.

After the dead skin cells have been removed, the process begins the formation of several microthermal zones that penetrate deep into the skin. It can activate your body’s natural healing mechanism and thus increase collagen formation. As a result, old, damaged skin cells are gradually replaced by new, healthy skin cells.

Finally, after the procedure, your skin expert will apply an anti-inflammatory cream to the treatment area to protect the skin.

What is the aftercare of CO2 Laser Treatment?

• Wear sunscreen after the fractional CO2 laser procedure to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays (even if it’s cloudy or you’re inside).
• Instead of using harsh products, use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer twice or three times per day.
• Makeup should be avoided because it can aggravate the skin even more.
• You’ll also need to make some adjustments to your regular skincare routine.
• Cleaning the treatment area twice to five times per day with plain water or a very mild cleanser is required.
• Apply an ice pack or compress to the treated area for the first 24 to 48 hours after your fractional CO2 laser treatment to reduce swelling around your face
• Apply ointment as needed to prevent the formation of scabs
• You may need to change your daily routine and avoid situations like swimming and exercising
• Any salon or parlor activities should be avoided
• Stay inside for 5-7 days
