Laser skin rejuvenation achieved with a higher quality of safety, care and flexibility.

Since introducing the Smart Laser CO2 fractional laser to The Clinic Plastic Surgery, our patients have had the opportunity to experience a whole new level of advanced treatment options with superior outcomes.  Our patients now experience results that were once only associated with much longer recovery periods.  Our CO2 Fractional Laser, offers more advanced results, in a manageable recovery setting.

CO2 fractional lasers work by targeting the deeper layers of your skin, heating up these layers to stimulate collagen growth and create firmer, healthier skin. CO2 Fractional Laser resurfacing also targets ageing and damaged skin, triggering the healing process and creating new cells that will rejuvenate and tighten your skin. 

For many years CO2 Fractional Laser has been considered a highly effective and popular method used to treat a range of skin conditions and concerns.  The fractionated nature of the CO2 laser beam ensures that your treatment is minimally invasive.  At The Clinic Plastic Surgery, we have what is considered to be the latest innovation in CO2 Fraction Laser called the Smart laser.  The Smart Laser is the newest technology that provides more precision, more advanced resurfacing levels and shorter recovery times to our patients,  

Due to the variable intensities and treating options that CO2 Fractional Smart Laser  is capable of delivering,  we are able to treat a wide range of conditions from patients who are only seeking an overall skin rejuvenation to those looking for a more effectively treatment for more dramatic conditions such as deeper lines around the mouth , post acne and surgical scars, a reduction in the depth and appearance of stretch-marks or a reduction in pore size.

FAQ’s

We understand you may have initial questions regarding your procedure. Let us try to answer some now.

WHAT IS THE FRACTIONAL CO2 LASER USED TO TREAT?

The CO2 fractional laser is beneficial for facial skin rejuvenation and scar revision. For facial rejuvenation with  CO2 fractional laser we treat the entire face in order to improve the appearance of your fine lines, wrinkles, skin tone, skin colour, and texture. Our CO2 fractional laser can also be used with a higher target intensity to treat the fine lines of the upper and lower lip and eyelids, which in turn, helps to tighten loose skin and wrinkles on the upper and lower eyelids and lips.  The fractional CO2 laser is also used to help remodel and improve the appearance of post acne and post-surgical scars.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS OF FRACTIONAL CO2 LASER WILL I NEED?

The CO2 Fractional Smart Laser treatment can be tailored to your lifestyle.  It can be used as a one off intense treatment requiring several recovery days, or for patients who don’t want any down time, this intense treatment can be split into several smaller treatments.  Several  light resurfacing treatments can gently and discreetly rejuvenate the skin and be performed over several months.

CAN CO2 FRACTIONAL LASER BE USED TO TREAT EYELIDS?

Yes, CO2 Fractional Smart Laser is an excellent non-surgical rejuvenation treatment for the  upper and lower eyelid to help tighten and refine the delicate eye area.  Protective eye shields are inserted to protect the eyes during this procedure and it is very well tolerated.

DOES THE FRACTIONAL CO2 LASER HELP WITH REDNESS OF THE SKIN OR RED SPOTS?

Yes.  As the collagen remodelling occurs over a 3 month period after CO2 fractional laser treatment, skin becomes firmer, with the dermis becoming thicker and better able to support the capillary network.  The stronger and more healthy dermis reduces the appearance of red blotchy and discoloured skin.  

WILL THE LASER WORK ON ACNE SCARS?

Yes. The CO2 Fractional Smart Laser is an excellent tool for the treatment of acne scarring, post-surgery scars and other healing or healed scars.  Our experienced Laser Nurses can help you with a scar revision protocol directing your treatment program towards the type of scars you have. Multiple treatments are often required over several months for scar revision programs.

IS FRACTIONAL CO2 LASER SAFE FOR ALL SKIN TYPES AND COLOURS?

The  CO2 Fractional Smart Laser is suitable for most skin colours from very light skin to medium olive skin, however, laser treatments are not suitable for patients with melasma or hormonally induced hyperpigmentation.  The heat generated during the treatment can induce a post inflammatory hyperpigmentation making it unsuitable for treatment for these patients.

HOW LONG AFTER THE PROCEDURE WILL IT TAKE UNTIL I SEE RESULTS?

Finer, smoother and more refined skin can be visible after about 2 weeks post treatment. Collagen remodelling takes place over 3 months post treatment revealing firmer, smoother and refined skin with more even skin tone and less visible lines.

WILL I HAVE ANY PAIN AFTERWARDS?

After applying topical anaesthetic prior to the treatment  most patients describe feeling little to no pain during the procedure. On completion of the treatment you will feel like you have experienced a mild sun burn for about one to two hours. Over the following week of recovery your skin exfoliates,  heals and new collagen forms in the deeper layers of the skin.  Some patients experience a slight itching on the surface of the skin during this healing period.

CAN THIS BE COMBINED WITH ANY OTHER PROCEDURES?

Yes.  We recommend CO2 Fractional Smart Laser as a companion treatment with collagen stimulating injections and hydrating SkinBooster treatments.  Combinations of these non-surgical treatments appeal to patients who want a natural rejuvenation, where bio-stimulants encourage the production of their own collagen. We refer to this as your body working for you to help achieve a fresher, more refined and more youthful look.
