Do CO2 Laser Treatments Hurt?
Ever wonder how celebrities get that flawless glow and clear complexion? Sure, Photoshop certainly helps – but plenty of A-listers seem to defy the laws of time and gravity with eternally youthful skin that seems lit from within.
Fortunately, they haven’t been keeping their skincare secrets to themselves. One of the best weapons in their anti-aging arsenal is laser resurfacing, courtesy of CO2 laser treatments.
They’re the exact same kind of treatment you can now find at South Coast Plastic Surgery in Irvine, California!
The Benefits Of CO2 Lasers
As the premier destination for laser skin resurfacing and cosmetic surgery in the greater Orange County area, South Coast Plastic Surgery is pleased to offer A-list laser skin resurfacing treatments for clients who want to achieve the following results:
- Even and smooth complexion
- Reduction in wrinkles and fine lines
- Fading of acne and surface scars
- Glowing skin
- Minimization of hyperpigmentation
- Tightened skin
Laser skin resurfacing works by delivering uniform tissue ablation to the topmost layers of skin, which triggers the production of collagen while encouraging faster cellular turnover. This treatment is one of the fastest and most effective ways to achieve that A-list complexion you’ve been searching for!
Do CO2 Laser Treatments Hurt?
Many patients report feeling a warming sensation on their skin during the CO2 laser treatment. Side effects can be uncomfortable if not properly managed. The first two days after the procedure usually involves some swelling. On the third or fourth day, the topmost skin layer will start to peel away – this means that cellular turnover has been triggered to reveal your new and youthful skin.
These results will last for about two weeks. Patients are encouraged to stay out of the sun and wear sunscreen, even when indoors.
