Fractional CO2 laser creates tiny, precise columns of controlled heat in the skin. 

This triggers:

• Removal of damaged outer layers of skin.
• Stimulation of new collagen production.
• Skin tightening as deeper tissues contract.
• Skin remodelling effect as the skin heals.

Only a fraction of the skin is treated at a time, meaning quicker healing and more comfortable recovery.

Unlike traditional fully ablative CO2 lasers that remove the entire surface layer of skin and require significant downtime, our Fractional CO2 Laser delivers energy in a less aggressive way. 

By treating only microscopic fractions of the skin at a time, it stimulates collagen production deep within the dermis while leaving surrounding tissue intact for faster healing. 

The result is dramatic improvement in skin texture, fine lines & wrinkles, scars, and loose skin with less discomfort, reduced risk, and shorter recovery when compared to fully ablative treatments. 

You get the proven results of CO2 resurfacing, without the extended downtime, making fractional laser the more convenient choice for visible rejuvenation.

With a skin resurfacing treatment, such as fractional CO2, downtime is expected. This is not a fluffy facial!

After treatment, the area is likely to feel tender, similar to sunburn and can be red and swollen for a number of days.

Day 1-3: Redness, swelling and a sunburn-like feeling.

Day 4–7: Skin may darken, scab, and peel as healing begins. 

Week 1–3: Fresh skin appears; redness will gradually fade.

Results can often be seen a few weeks after each session with continued improvement. Collagen remodelling and regeneration can take several months.

Initial improvement is visible after healing, with continued improvement for up to 6 months as collagen regenerates.
