CO2 laser skin resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure used to improve the appearance of the skin by treating various skin concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, scars, uneven pigmentation, and sun damage. It involves using a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser to remove layers of damaged skin tissue and stimulate collagen production, which helps to rejuvenate and tighten the skin. We perform Fractional CO2 laser at our clinic using an FDA-approved Phoenix laser machine from Rohrer Aesthetics. Fractional laser resurfacing is a specific type of CO2 skin resurfacing that differs from traditional full-surface treatments. Here’s how fractional laser resurfacing differs from other types of laser treatments: It’s worth noting that the choice between traditional and fractional CO2 resurfacing depends on various factors, including specific skin concerns, the patient’s skin type and tone, and the desired downtime for recovery. Consulting with a qualified medical professional is crucial to determine the most appropriate treatment for individual needs and goals. The Phoenix CO2 micro-thermal zone scanner breaks down the CO2 laser beam into small beams of light. These beams of light penetrate through the epidermis layer and reach the sub-dermal layer of the skin where they introduce heat. This heat stimulates collagen production, causing skin cells to reproduce more rapidly. The micro-thermal zone scanner can be adjusted from 5mm to 30mm to target the specific treatment area. This makes it easier for technicians to provide the optimal treatment for their clients. Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing uses a specialized laser to create thousands of tiny, evenly-spaced microscopic wounds in the skin. Here’s a step-by-step explanation of how the process typically works: Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing is effective for treating a range of skin concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, scars, hyperpigmentation, and sun damage. It provides a balance between significant results and a shorter recovery time compared to traditional full-surface CO2 resurfacing. The CO2 laser is an ablative procedure that needs meticulous attention to detail by doctors, including skin preparation, to get the best results. It can cost from a few hundred dollars to 1000+ dollars. We have a promotion, and you can check our best prices by going to the book online page. CO2 laser resurfacing can be performed on a variety of skin types. Still, it’s important to note that the specific type of CO2 laser used and the settings and technique may need to be adjusted based on individual skin characteristics. Here’s a general guideline for the suitability of CO2 laser resurfacing for different skin types: Fitzpatrick Skin Type Scale: The Fitzpatrick scale is a widely used classification system that categorizes skin types based on their response to sun exposure and propensity to tan or burn. It ranges from Type I (very fair skin, always burns) to Type VI (very dark skin, never burns). You can expect a downtime of 7 – 10 days post your CO2 laser procedure on your face. You can expect the below post your procedure. It’s important to note that individual experiences may vary, and some people may experience shorter or longer downtime depending on their skin’s response and the aggressiveness of the treatment. During downtime, it’s essential to follow post-treatment care instructions provided by your healthcare provider. This may include using prescribed topical treatments, avoiding sun exposure, and keeping the treated area clean and moisturized. Always consult your healthcare provider for specific information regarding your expected downtime, as they can provide personalized advice based on your unique circumstances.

I bought six laser hair sessions for my lower legs. I am fairly happy. I'm down to about 30% hair. but i do still have to shave which was the whole point.
We leveraged Dr Garg services for my parents I-693. Both of my parents are 65+ and Dr Garg was very accommodative in regards to their health and timing of vaccines. She made sure that their health doesn't suffer and provided best advice on delaying or phasing out vaccines instead of just focusing on paperwork. She waived off the penalty and also helped in providing medication guidance to help with improving the health. All the paperwork was done very smoothly and efficiently and the prices are competitive. I would recommend Dr Garg any day for i-693 needs.
