What is it

The CO2 Fractional Laser claims its renaming to “Lifting without a scalpel” offering fast and impressive renewal of the tired face. It is one of the most effective tools in the hands of modern cosmetic dermatology, which can give spectacular results in such a short time and without any pain.

Most of us have wished we could slow down the signs of aging. Thanks to the revolutionary CO2 Fractional Laser anti-aging treatment, we can now reverse the signs of aging and look as young as we feel. It is one of the most widely used methods worldwide for skin reconstruction and facial rejuvenation.

The CO2 Fractional Laser is the only laser that performs substantial facial regeneration and collagen cell reconstruction, eliminating the signs of time. In addition to its ability to stimulate skin fibroblasts, it also removes damaged and aged cells. CO2 Fractional Laser treatment, also called Laser Skin Resurfacing, because of its ability to “give birth” to, essentially, new skin in the area.

State-of-the-art equipment

At Cosmetic Derma Medicine, we have state-of-the-art CO2 Fractional Laser system which splits the laser beams into dozens of thin beams that selectively scan the entire surface of the skin. The powerful laser beam acts deep into the skin and removes aged cells. By its action, it “wakes up” the fibroblasts, the cells that produce collagen and elastin, making our skin more radiant, youthful and firm.

The innovation of the CO2 Fractional Laser, compared to older CO2 Lasers, is based on the fact that we can act on specific points, instead of intervening on a larger surface area. The laser’s operation alters the structure of the tissue beneath the epidermis, creating an ideal environment for continuous collagen and elastin regeneration. Its advanced technology allows for personalized treatment, respecting the specificities and needs of each skin, as it allows the intensity, duration and depth of light penetration to be adjusted, making treatment possible even during the summer months.

Fractional Laser Treatments

The CO2 Fractional Laser has an advantage over previous techniques, as it has the ability to act on the epidermal cells, as well as to isolate its action in the deeper layers of the epidermis. When it penetrates the deeper layers, it leaves the outer layer of the skin intact and achieves new tissue formation underneath the epidermis. The CO2 Fractional Laser has amazing results on sun- or acne- damaged skin, but can also be applied as a preventative treatment to younger individuals.

The revolutionary CO2 Fractional Laser treatment “erases” the imperfections of time, providing youthful skin in just a few sessions. At the same time, it offers a complete relief from recent acne scars left over from adolescence and gives you smooth and soft skin. By activating the skin’s new collagen and elastin production process, it offers a glowing skin and eliminates scars, discolorations and wrinkles. It has an advantage over other methods as it is the only treatment that can erase red skin stretch marks and even minimize the white ones.

It is also often used in the treatment of other skin conditions such as warts, freckles, melasma, as well as hemangiomas or age spots. CO2 Fractional Laser is also used in cases of scars and marks offering correction and elimination of these.

At the same time, it helps in skin regeneration, improving wrinkles as well as treating papillomas and seborrheic hyperkeratosis. The advantages of the method include its ease of application, which makes it a simple and painless method, with an immediate return to daily activities. It achieves the benefits of invasive lifting without requiring a long recovery time.

Treatment of acne scars

Acne scars and marks are the result of an inflammation on the surface of the skin. As cystic acne cysts grow, there is a risk of rupturing their wall. If this rupture occurs close to the surface of the skin then the damage caused is mild. However, if they rupture deeply in their wall, then their contents are expelled and the healthy skin tissue is destroyed. Our body, in order to cope with the damage and heal the wound, produces collagen and connective tissue leading to small or large scars.

The use of the CO2 Fractional Laser in the treatment of scars caused by acne is particularly successful. The duration and repeatability of the sessions depend on the extent of the problem and should be done every 3-4 weeks or so. Facial redness may last for a few hours and the use of sunscreen is considered necessary.

Photoaging treatment

Over time, the skin becomes damaged and fine lines appear in the area around the eyes, mouth and also in the midface. At the same time, intense sunlight, especially in countries like Greece, causes the appearance of spots, freckles, melasma, and signs of aged skin. CO2 Fractional Laser can stop the appearance of such symptoms and give the appearance of a youthful and radiant face. Its advantages include the fact that it does not create a peeling skin, while it cleanses and soothes it.

The number of sessions depends on the extent of the problem and the treatment is repeated every 3-4 weeks or so. The redness of the skin may last for a few hours and the use of sunscreen is considered necessary.

Treatment of skin diseases

The surgical CO2 laser is a revolutionary method for treating skin conditions such as warts, papillomas and genital warts, as well as some types of moles. With the CO2 Fractional Laser, the experienced doctor practitioner vaporizes targeted tissue while achieving rapid healing.

Its use is particularly important in the treatment of the human papillomavirus (HPV) and by applying the focused CO2 Fractional Laser, many different strains of HPV that grow on the skin can be successfully treated.

Elimination of stretch marks

The red or white stretch marks that appear on the body of women, but also of many men, either due to sudden weight fluctuations or in women after pregnancy, can be treated with the use of CO2 Fractional Laser. Red stretch marks disappear completely after 6-7 sessions, while white stretch marks, which are more persistent, require about 8-10 sessions leading to a huge reduction. The results of the Laser are amazing, as it leaves no scars or marks and the skin is fully reconstructed.

For even more impressive stretch mark treatment results, Fractional Laser can also be combined with Autologous Mesotherapy.

Skin tightening

Facial and body skin sagging is a problem that almost all women and men face. While there are many non-mechanical ways to treat sagging, none offer such immediate visible results. In the facial area, sagging is the early sign of aging and fractional laser produces impressive results. Sagging in areas such as the abdomen, arms or buttocks is noticeably reduced and the characteristic “orange texture” that indicates the presence of cellulite is greatly improved.

The fractional laser sessions required for skin tightening are usually 8-10 and excellent results are achieved when combined with Autologous Mesotherapy.
