CO2 Laser

The CO2 laser uses concentrated beams of light to renew the skin: it stimulates collagen and cell renewal, treating texture, fine wrinkles, dark spots, and scars — in areas such as the face, neck, décolletage, and hands. It requires careful planning around sun exposure.

Goals of the procedure

  • Stimulate collagen and the skin's cell renewal

  • Treat texture, fine wrinkles, dark spots, and acne scars

  • Apply to the face, neck, décolletage, and hands, as indicated

  • Adjust the parameters to the needs of each skin

Every procedure has indications, contraindications, and risks. An individual evaluation with a physician is essential to determine the appropriate treatment for each case.

Frequently asked questions

What patients usually ask.

When is the best time to have it done?

Preferably during periods of lower sun exposure and with untanned skin. Strict sun protection is part of the protocol, before and after.

What is recovery like?

There is redness and peeling for a few days, varying with the depth of the treatment. The physician guides the care for each phase.

Is it suitable for every skin type?

The indication and the parameters depend on the skin's phototype and condition — which is why a prior evaluation is essential.

How many sessions are needed?

It depends on the depth and the goal: more superficial treatments may require more sessions; deeper ones, fewer. The plan is defined during the evaluation.

The next step

Discuss the CO2 Laser with a surgeon.

In a hospital dedicated exclusively to plastic surgery, your consultation begins with listening — and ends with a plan made for you.
