Redness and surface healing come first. Texture and tone can improve as the skin recovers, while collagen remodelling develops over the following months. More than one treatment may be advised.
CO₂ fractional laser
Fractional CO₂ laser creates controlled microscopic treatment columns in the skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact. This begins a repair response that can improve texture and stimulate collagen remodelling.
