CO2 laser

Say goodbye to marks, rediscover your skin

Rejuvenate your skin with the precision of the CO2 laser.

What is CO2 laser?

The CO2 (carbon dioxide) laser is a medical laser device that emits a beam of light with a specific wavelength that is absorbed by the water and pigments present in the skin cells, generating a controlled thermal effect in the treated area, which stimulates collagen production, improving the quality and turgor of the skin.

CO2 lasers have been used for over 25 years in surgical procedures, cosmetic treatments, and dermatological treatments: for medium and fine wrinkles, scars of various origins, pigmentation disorders, and enlarged pores. Although highly effective, traditional CO2 lasers involve a prolonged recovery time associated with inflammation and redness that can last from several weeks to several months, and therefore generate significant discomfort and social discomfort.

What can we treat with the SmartXide Touch RF CO2 laser?

The CO2 laser is primarily used in aesthetic medicine to remove skin lesions, improve wrinkles and scars, perform non-surgical blepharoplasty, perform laser-assisted facial peels, and as a comprehensive treatment for rejuvenating the skin around the eyes, face (lifting effect), neck, and décolletage.

At PRESBIT, we employ the new SmartXide Touch RF fractional CO2 laser technology. This innovative technology distributes the laser beam into multiple, evenly spaced, smaller beams, generating a controlled thermal effect in the deeper layers of the skin, allowing for a much faster recovery and a gentler, more patient-tolerated post-laser treatment.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

By directing the laser at the affected area, collagen production is stimulated, which promotes skin regeneration and improves its texture, hydration, and elasticity. The CO2 laser can improve the appearance of fine wrinkles, expression lines, and skin blemishes, and reduce pore size.

The CO2 laser helps smooth skin texture by removing damaged surface layers and stimulating the growth of new, healthier skin thanks to the collagen stimulation produced by the thermal effect in the deeper layers of the skin. The CO2 laser is effective in reducing the appearance of scars, whether caused by acne, surgery, or injury.

The CO2 laser allows for the treatment of moderate excess skin with very good results, without surgery and with anesthetic cream. For patients who wish to improve their tired-looking eyes but are not yet ready for surgery. For patients with more significant excess skin, we can offer CO2 laser surgery in the operating room with local anesthesia and sedation. Compared to traditional blepharoplasty, laser surgery allows for a faster recovery, less bruising, and a lower likelihood of visible scarring.

The CO2 laser is used to effectively remove benign skin lesions in a minimally invasive manner, under topical anesthesia. It can treat warts, seborrheic keratoses (brown spots), small benign tumors such as skin tags or fibromas, xanthelasmas, and nevi. The CO2 laser can remove these lesions precisely and with a low risk of scarring.

Fractional CO2 laser combined with CoolPeel technology represents an innovative alternative to traditional chemical peels. It is a skin rejuvenation procedure that offers several advantages over traditional peels.

CO2 lasers have been used for over 25 years in surgical procedures, cosmetic treatments, and dermatological treatments: for medium and fine wrinkles, scars of various origins, pigmentation disorders, and enlarged pores. Although highly effective, traditional CO2 lasers involve a prolonged recovery time associated with inflammation and redness that can last from several weeks to several months, and therefore generate significant discomfort and social discomfort.

Effective and personalized results

The CO2 Cool Peel uses carbon dioxide (CO2) in the form of a cold mist to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. This treatment is highly customizable, meaning your practitioner can adjust the intensity and depth of the procedure to suit your specific needs. This allows for more precise and effective results compared to traditional peels.

Shorter recovery time

One of the main advantages of the CO2 Cool Peel is its faster recovery time compared to traditional peels. After the treatment, you may experience redness and a mild sunburn-like sensation, but these side effects typically disappear within a few days. Unlike other more invasive peels, there’s no need for extended rest or social distancing.

Collagen stimulation

The CO2 Cool Peel stimulates collagen production in the skin. Collagen is a protein that provides structure and firmness to the skin, and its production declines with age. By stimulating collagen production, the CO2 Cool Peel helps improve the appearance of fine wrinkles, expression lines, and sagging skin, achieving younger, firmer skin.

Improves skin texture and tone

This treatment is also effective in improving uneven skin texture and tone. The CO2 Cool Peel helps remove dead skin cells and promotes cell regeneration, resulting in smoother, brighter, and more even skin. It can also reduce the appearance of sun spots, freckles, and other pigmentation problems.

Safety and versatility

The CO2 Cool Peel is a safe and versatile procedure that can be adapted to different skin types and conditions. It is less aggressive than some deeper chemical peels, reducing the risk of adverse side effects. Furthermore, this treatment can be applied to various areas of the body, such as the face, neck, décolletage, and hands, to improve the overall appearance of the skin. It provides the benefits, safety, and effectiveness of a laser-based skin resurfacing treatment without the need for additional chemicals.

It’s important to note that CO2 laser treatment must be performed by a doctor specializing in aesthetic medicine or dermatology. Before undergoing this type of treatment, your skin will be evaluated, and you will be informed about your expectations and possible side effects.
