What is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?
by Sujith Ram drmaryamzamaniIn recent years, there has been a significant expansion of
technology for facial skin rejuvenation. Patients desire improvement in skin
texture, fine wrinkles, and dyschromia as a result of years of photodamage.
Some of the newer laser treatments offer minimal downtime, which is a distinct
advantage over older, more established techniques. However, although some of
the newer treatments have shown promising results in patients with mild
photodamage, the results have yet to match the results that can be achieved
with the combination of resurfacing using traditional chemical peels, carbon
dioxide (CO2) laser, and dermabrasion.

beautiful, even skin texture while avoiding scarring and skin lightening.

choose specific areas. In addition to rejuvenating the skin, the laser has a
