Laser resurfacing is an excellent method for rejuvenating the skin, revealing a fresher and more youthful complexion. This advanced treatment employs cutting-edge laser technology that delivers concentrated light energy, which converts to thermal energy upon contact with the skin. The procedure creates controlled micro-injuries, prompting the skin’s natural healing response and encouraging the production of collagen and elastin.
Overview
We only use industry leading lasers – the Ultra Pulse by Lumenis and Sciton Erbium:YAG
We love using this treatment because of the dramatic transformations it brings to our patients, and we perform approximately 30 procedures a week to address a range of concerns including acne scarring, post surgical scarring and rejuvenation.
It’s one of the few treatments available that can provide excellent results for deep lines from either scarring or wrinkling in aesthetically sensitive areas such as the face. There’s really nothing else out there that can provide results like this non-surgically.
How it works
CO2 resurfacing addresses deep lines formed by scars or deep wrinkling, elastosis (a loss of elasticity) and the uneven textural changes that we see in skin as we get older. It does this by either precisely ablating layers of skin, or tunnelling tiny micro columns of energy into the surface of the skin.
CO2 transforms light energy into heat, remodeling tissue and causing formation of fresh new collagen and elastin bundles.
Following this up with fillers and fat grafting to address the volume loss is important for rejuvenation patients, as is lifting the skin with heating devices such as Thermage.
For scar revision patients, the CO2 laser treatment is often combined with subcision to release the tethering from underneath the scar.
The process
With CO2 treatments, there are 3 steps to the procedure:
The preparation
This is where topical & local anaesthetic is applied followed by light sedation or twilight anaesthetic.
The treatment
The treatment itself takes between 30 and 90 mins depending upon the complexity and intensity of the procedure.
The aftercare
Immediately post treatment, there is a 30min aftercare process including ointments and serums, very specific written after care instructions and explanation of medications to be taken after the procedure. We usually see you one day, one week and one month after the procedure to ensure a nice smooth transition with your healing phase.
**All invasive procedures carry risk. Please obtain a second opinion from a suitably qualified medical practitioner before proceeding. Results may vary.
