Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Laser Peels for Face and Neck Resurfacing
Laser Skin Resurfacing (CO2)
This laser stimulates the production of new collagen (collageneogenesis) by sending heat energy at programmed depths for immediate shrinkage of the collagen fibers and stimulation of fibroblasts to produce brand new young collagen post-treatment and for the next several months.
This can be used for lighter skin types and for deeper wrinkles and can be used in conjunction with the erbium laser for multifaceted treatments for collagen stimulation and improved skin tone and texture.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) using advanced technology to iron out wrinkles externally while internally stimulating the dermal collagen matrix to firm the skin. Primary treatments include:
- Recommended for lighter skin types
- Mild to deep wrinkles
- Acne scars, post-traumatic and surgical scars
- Pigmented lesions
- Lax skin in all areas (including upper and lower blepharoplasty)
- Poor skin tone/texture
A laser resurfacing kit will be included in your purchase of the treatment to optimize healing results. Specific post-operative instructions and healing time will depend on the depth of laser penetration but vinegar (1 teaspoon) diluted in 1 cup of DISTILLED water to clean the lasered skin, occlusive dressing with Hydrabalm® (Skin Ceuticals), Vaseline® or Aquaphor® to help the skin heal, and sunblock with zinc and titanium oxide to heal and prevent inflammation will be a part of your post-operative regimen.
The DEKA CO2 system incorporates advanced resurfacing laser technology that allows for precise vaporization of tissue with thermal conduction. Targeted therapy is used to iron out deeper wrinkles, improve photoaging, and skin texture for younger-looking skin.
A fully ablative or fractional laser treatment that removes damaged skin layers, stimulating deep collagen remodeling for significant rejuvenation.
Best for:

General FAQs
BBL & Moxi are well tolerated with minimal discomfort. Erbium & CO2 lasers may require numbing cream, local anesthesia, or sedation for comfort.
Results are long-lasting, but maintenance treatments & skincare can help extend benefits. Chemical peels and Hydrafacials ® can be used to keep the laser results lasting longer by collagen stimulation and skin turnover.
