How to take years off your face without going under the knife! A great deal of excitement surrounds the most recent advancement in laser technology. The newest generation of CO2 lasers are being used to improve the appearance of aging skin. The laser ablates or “wipes away” the upper layers of skin and stimulates collagen production in the deeper skin layers.
What CO2 Lite Does:
The CO2 “Lite” laser improves the appearance of the skin by:
-Removing dead skin cells
-Reducing superficial brown discoloration
-Eliminating unsightly blemishes
Following the treatment a healthy polished glow to the skin can be expected.
What To Expect From CO2 Lite:
A great advantage of CO2 “Lite” technology, is that the treatment can be adjusted to meet the patient’s desires and schedule. Those seeking a more aggressive treatment can expect to be red for 5-7 days, but those who can not afford the downtime can get a less intensive treatment resulting in a pinkish skin color lasting for just a couple of days. Keep in mind the more aggressive the treatment the better the results. Those who get the lighter version can expect nice results but may require additional treatments to achieve the same results as that which is seen with the deeper treatments.
Following the procedure the skin is covered with a Vaseline type ointment for the first few days after which make up and regular skin care can be resumed. The results are comparable to those achieved with traditional more aggressive methods buy unlike older techniques the downtime and risk is minimized. Erbium laser treatments can be preformed in the office, takes minutes and is comfortable following placement of a topical numbing cream.
