Carbon Dioxide Laser (CO2 Laser)

Carbon Dioxide Laser (CO2 Laser)

• The CO2 laser was invented in 1964 by Kumar
  Patel at Bell Labs in the United States. It was
  soon adopted by plastic surgeons around the world
  as the best form of treatment for skin
  resurfacing. Over the years, the CO2 laser has
  become the fountain of youth for thousands of
  people. In 2013, the American Society of Plastic
  Surgeons reported over half a billion skin
  resurfacing procedures performed in the United
  States alone.

How the CO2 Laser Works

• Collagen is the main protein in the connective
  tissues it is collagen that keeps the skin
  appearing rejuvenated and wrinkle free. What
  destroys the collagen in the connective tissues
  is sun exposure or the natural ageing process
  combined with pollution. The CO2 special setting
  allows facial plastic surgeons to perform
  procedures on fair to dark skin types. The CO2
  laser wavelength technology uses a very short
  pulsed light energy known has "ultrapulse. These
  continuous light beams penetrate into the bores
  of the skin and boost the body's natural collagen
  production. The skin then begins to repair
  itself by replacing the damaged skin with the new
  skin, all with minimal to no heat damage.
•   Although CO2 ablative lasers can significantly
  reduce fine wrinkles, tighten skin and improve
  scarring, in the past they have been associated
  with the potential for hypopigmentation in most
  skin types and delayed healing times. Today, the
  latest CO2 technology fractionates the beam to
  produce columns of tissue ablation separated by
  healthy tissue. As a result, fractionated CO2
  lasers can be performed on almost every skin
  type, significantly decreasing the risk of
  hypopigmentation and dramatically speeding up
  healing time.
