Description
The use of the Carbon Dioxide Laser to treat fine wrinkles and skin irregularities in a controlled manner has been revolutionary. It is now possible to customize laser therapy to the individual patient’s skin type, pigmentation, and, just as importantly, downtime tolerance. Make sure that you have discussed the treatment intensity and its associated healing, or downtime with your clinician. Please commit to reading and following all instructions provided to you with your treatment. In general, the deeper, more extensive treatments require longer healing, or downtime, than the superficial ones. On the other hand, the more superficial the treatment, the more separate sessions are required to gain the optimal results. The risk profile also parallels the treatment depth and extent.
