Before proceeding, your clinician will explain every aspect of the treatment, discuss any potential risks, and provide comprehensive aftercare guidance to support a smooth recovery and the best possible outcome.

How It Works

Your Treatment Journey

Fractional CO₂ laser technology creates a series of micro-channels in the skin, encouraging your body’s own healing system to renew cells and rebuild collagen.

01

Consultation & Patch Test

A detailed consultation assesses your skin type, medical history and goals. A patch test may be performed to confirm suitability.

02

Numbing & Preparation

A topical anaesthetic is applied beforehand to minimise any discomfort during your treatment.

03

The Treatment

The fractional laser is precisely directed at treatment areas, penetrating the deeper dermal layers in around 30 minutes.

04

Healing & Renewal

Your body's natural healing response stimulates cell renewal and collagen production over the following weeks.

Frequently Asked

Your Questions, Answered

laser co2 resurfacing
How soon will I see results?

You may notice initial improvements in skin texture within a week, with continued improvements over the following 4–8 weeks as collagen production increases.

A topical anaesthetic is used to minimise discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as warm or tingling during treatment and a mild sunburn feeling afterwards.
You should avoid wearing makeup until your skin has fully healed—typically 7–10 days. Our team will guide you on when and how to reintroduce skincare and cosmetics.
Results vary, but many patients enjoy long-term improvements in skin quality. Maintenance treatments and a good skincare routine can help prolong your results.
For some patients, a single session is enough to achieve desired results. Others may benefit from multiple sessions spaced several months apart, depending on the depth of skin concern.
