What is CO2RE?

CO2RE is a fractional therapy CO2 laser for skin resurfacing. Your skin is treated with a matrix of laser pulses that vary in intensity, depending on your skin type and desired treatment results. The result is a treatment that is fast, more comfortable, and requires less downtime than traditional resurfacing - enabling you to get back to your daily routine much quicker.

CO2RE has been proven effective in enhancing skin tone and texture, eliminating the effects of the sun and aging on the skin, smoothing out lines, wrinkles, and scars. Treatments can vary based on the extent of skin resurfacing you’re looking for.

How do I know if CO2RE treatments are right for me?

Ideal candidates for CO2RE have skin damaged by exposure to the sun, age spots, fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, rough texture (acne scars). It is ideal for anyone seeking younger-looking skin without the long downtime associated with conventional resurfacing procedures.

What is the CO2RE procedure like?

You can expect some moderate discomfort during the treatment, but the anesthetic applied prior to the procedure typically makes any discomfort tolerable.

Is CO2RE safe?

Yes. You should speak with your practitioner about your complete medical and skin history to minimize the potential for any negative reactions.

How many CO2RE treatments will I need?

Generally, you will see the difference you want after only one treatment. After the treatment, your skin will gradually look softer, smoother, and less unwanted pigment. Over time, the fine line, wrinkles, age spots, and uneven texture will start to show improvement.

How long will the results last?

There are a number of variables that will determine how long you can expect the results to last including your health, age, and how you care for your skin after treatment.

What can I expect after my procedure?

Immediately following the procedure you can expect a sensation similar to a sunburn, lasting several hours. You can expect peeling of dead skin from the treatment area. This is a natural exfoliation process that may last 7-10
days.

Possible side effects may include discomfort, excessive skin redness (erythema) and/or swelling (edema), damage to natural skin texture (crust, blister, burn), change of pigmentation (hyper and hypopigmentation), scarring or bruising.
