The Advantages of Fractional CO2 Laser Edmonton

The Fractional laser operates by dividing the laser beam into thousands of tiny, individual beams of light. Therefore, it has shorter recovery and better safety than fully ablative lasers.

These microbeams penetrate the skin’s deeper layers and start the natural healing process. Therefore the skin expels the old, sun-damaged cells and replaces them with fresh, new skin cells.

Fractional CO2 lasers represent the cutting edge in non-surgical skin resurfacing. These treatments effectively reduce deep wrinkles, severe texture changes caused by sun damage, and blotchiness on the face, chest, and arms.

Additionally, they can effectively reduce blotchiness on the face, chest, and arms. These products demonstrate their effectiveness on sensitive areas such as the skin around the eyes and mouth. These areas are prone to showing signs of aging.

In addition, our treatments can effectively target pigmentation and brown spots on the skin. They also work wonders on previously hard-to-treat acne scars and other types of scars. Beyond this, fractional skin resurfacing proves extremely potent in treating sun damage and precancerous growths.

Preparation for Fractional CO2 Laser Edmonton Treatment

This is crucial to ensure optimal results and minimize potential side effects. Here are some key instructions:

  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your skin from the sun and avoid tanning (including artificial tanning) for at least a month before your treatment. This helps reduce the risk of pigmentation changes post-procedure.
  • No Retinoid Use: Discontinue using Retin-A and other retinoid products a week before the treatment. These products can increase skin sensitivity.
  • Reduce Smoking: If you’re a smoker, try to reduce smoking several weeks before the procedure. Smoking can delay the healing process.
  • Stay Hydrated and Healthy: Eat a balanced diet and drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your procedure. Good nutrition and hydration can aid the healing process.
  • Cold Sores and Shingles: Inform us you’ve recently had a cold sore or a fever blister, as we might prescribe an antiviral to prevent shingle and cold sores.
  • Avoid Blood-Thinning Medications: Do not take aspirin or other OTC blood-thinning medications for at least a week before your treatment, as they can increase the risk of bruising.

Before the procedure, we apply a topical anesthetic to ensure minimal discomfort. During the treatment, you might feel a slight heat sensation akin to a mild sunburn. Post-treatment, it’s normal to experience some itchiness and dryness in the treated area. Over-the-counter medications such as Tylenol can ease mild discomfort, which typically resolves within a day.

Aftercare and Recovery for CO2 Fractional Laser Treatment

This laser treatment is less invasive than others, but it’s important to know the possible side effects. After treatment, you might have sunburn-like symptoms, skin peeling, and pink skin, which usually goes away in a few weeks.

  • Keep the treated area clean and moisturized. This aids in the healing process and prevents dryness.
  • Protect your skin from sun exposure. The new skin is sensitive and should be shielded from the sun to prevent damage. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher.
  • Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet to promote skin healing and regeneration.
  • Avoid harsh skin care products, including retinol and acids, until your skin has fully healed.
  • If swelling occurs, you can use a cold compress to alleviate discomfort.
