Laser Skin Resurfacing

What is laser skin resurfacing?

Laser skin resurfacing removes the layer of dead unhealthy skin to smooth out the roughness and unevenness on our face and neck. It encourages the growth of fresh, healthy skin which brings a glow back to our face and is effective for fading away acne scars, pigmentation, and blemishes.

Fraxel Dual Laser

The Fraxel® Dual Laser uses a focused beam of light for reducing skin irregularities like scars or blemishes for skin rejuvenation. It is an all-rounder, being able to improve skin texture, attack brown spots and scars, and stimulate collagen production. And being non-ablative (which means it tackles only the deeper layers of the skin, leaving the surface layer intact), the Fraxel Dual Laser promotes new skin growth from inside out, offering faster healing, optimal results with less redness, and less downtime than ablative lasers.

Micro-Laser Peel

Our skin can also be resurfaced with a micro-laser peel, where superficial unhealthy skin is exfoliated through a laser treatment to reveal healthy, smooth skin with lots of glow.

Fractional Erbium Laser

The Fractional Erbium laser ablates or removes a very fine layer of the epidermis (top layer of skin) in a controlled manner to reveal skin that is smoother and younger looking. This laser treatment not only activates collagen to tighten the skin, it also helps to smooth superficial facial wrinkles and reduce acne scarring and pigmentation. It can be used to remove skin lumps and bumps as well.

Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing

Fractional CO2 laser uses computer-generated, pixelated, and electronically-generated grids to target small microscopic areas over the face of surface area.

These lasers remove the superficial to middle layers of the skin in tiny dots all over the face to promote new skin growth, stimulate collagen, and even help remove superficial pigmentation. As the targeted areas are microscopic, the unaffected areas help to heal the affected areas, reducing the downtime from two weeks to five days.

1) Who is Suitable for Fractional CO2 Laser Treatment?

Fractional CO2 laser treatment is ideal for individuals looking to address skin concerns such as deep wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and uneven skin texture. It is particularly effective for those with fair to medium skin tones, as darker skin tones may require additional consideration to minimise the risk of pigmentation issues.

2)  What Skin Concerns Can Fractional CO2 Laser Treat?

Fractional CO2 laser targets a wide range of skin concerns. By stimulating collagen production and resurfacing the skin, Fractional CO2 laser can significantly improve the overall texture and tone of the skin, making for an ideal choice for those looking to address multiple skin issues in one treatment.

Ageing skin

  • Deep wrinkles
  • Fine lines

Hyperpigmentation

  • Acne scars 
  • Sun spots
  • Age spots

Texture

  • Uneven skin texture
  • Enlarged pores 

3) Combat Acne Scars with Fractional CO2 Laser

Fractional CO2 laser is an ablative treatment that targets and improves acne scars by resurfacing the skin. During the procedure, the laser creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin, which stimulate the body’s natural healing process and encourage the production of new collagen. This helps to smooth out the appearance of acne scars and improve skin texture.

 

The Process

Before the Treatment

A topical anaesthetic is applied before the procedure to minimise discomfort.

During the Treatment

Patients may feel a mild stinging or warm sensation as the laser works on the skin. One session usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

Aftercare and Recovery

After the procedure, it’s common to experience redness, swelling, and a sunburn-like sensation. The skin will begin to peel within a few days, and full recovery usually takes about 7 to 10 days. During this time, patients are advised to keep the treated area clean, avoid direct sun exposure, and use a gentle skincare routine. Follow any specific instructions as directed to speed up recovery.
