1.Does getting fractional Co2 laser resurfacing hurt?
For laser treatments, many patients say that it feels as though a rubber band is snapping against their skin. But it also depends on your pain tolerance because it might hurt, or it may not.
2.What areas can I ask to get treated with fractional laser treatment?
Generally, we treat areas of the face and neck. Commonly it’s the face that presents most with abnormal skin pigmentation, age spots, wrinkles or scarring. However, if you book a consultation and have a specific area you are unhappy with, we might be able to accommodate.
3.Can I wear makeup after the fractional Co2 laser procedure?
After the procedure you will experience some redness, so we often recommend that you avoid wearing makeup that contains Retin A or glycolic acid products. However, if you wait six weeks then the treated areas should have healed, and you will be able to wear makeup.
4.What is the downtime for fractional laser therapies?
Often patients can appear red and blotchy the next day. However, after a few days to a week, you will notice the redness does dissipate after relaxation. We recommend that you avoid aggravating the treatment area to prevent any facial peeling. However, we can apply some ointment to the treated area to help with any soreness or redness.
5.Why should I get fractional laser therapy when I can just buy anti-wrinkle serum?
Anti-wrinkle creams don’t always work because everyone’s skin isn’t the same, some people have more wrinkles, differ in tone or present with acne. However, laser treatments can be specifically tailored for the skin type and condition, which is why we have seen phenomenal results in a lot of patients.
6.What are the instant benefits of Co2 laser resurfacing?
As ageing affects everyone, people often complain that their skin tends to lose natural elasticity with age spots popping up everywhere, which is why skin resurfacing can help with your skin’s appearance.
We can remove old skin cells to ensure your skin appears tighter and younger, with less fine lines. Ultimately, wrinkle creams are not for everyone, with only some showing some difference to the skin. Yet, fractional laser therapy lets you take control by triggering the natural cell cycle and stimulating the growth of new skin cells
7.Who is not an ideal candidate for Co2 laser treatment?
We do not recommend Co2 laser for patients who are taking Accutane or who have problems with poor healing processes.
8.How many fractional Co2 laser treatments will I need?
Depending on your skin type and severity of wrinkles will determine the suitable number of treatments. Yet, with many patients, we have seen relatively phenomenal results slashing almost ten years of their look.
9.Are fractional Co2 laser treatments safe?
As long as the person doing them is fully qualified, and at Juvea, we only use expertly trained professionals. Also, bear in mind that laser therapies are FDA certified and have been approved by cosmeticians for several years.
10.What are the advantages of fractional Co2 lasers compared to standard ablative lasers?
The latest and the best SmartXide Dot® fractional laser uses pulsed operated emission using SmartPulse and SmartStack. SmartPulse enables the laser to generate perfectly controlled pulses ensuring it is ideal for skin resurfacing. While SmartStack can help with degree of vaporisation to the skin.
