What is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?
CO2 Laser skin resurfacing is the gold standard in laser skin treatments for the face, neck and chest. The Mixto SX Micro Fractional CO2 Laser is a cutting edge skin rejuvenation treatment that makes it possible for you to have healthy, younger looking skin with minimal post-treatment down time. A single treatment can show significant improvement in skin texture and color while softening wrinkles.

C02 Laser Recovery
Fractional laser resurfacing downtime is a little longer than our other facial procedures. Right after the procedure your skin will probably appear red and slightly swollen, but this will fade within 2-5 days. For milder treatments, many patients are able to cover up the redness the next day and return to work or daily activities, but typically a return to make-up occurs around day 5. Additionally, many patients experience some skin peeling within the first week after the treatment. Using a moisturizer will help reduce the appearance of flakey skin.
Downtime can be adjusted by Dr. Hester. We suggest scheduling a complimentary consultation prior to your treatment to discuss your individual treatment route and downtime.

The cost of fractional laser resurfacing varies depending on what laser is used and the size of the area that is being treated.
