Why Choose Fractional CO2 Laser?
Fractional CO2 laser is considered the gold standard in skin resurfacing. If you want maximum results from a single treatment, this is the procedure to consider.
✨ One fractional CO2 session is comparable to having multiple non-invasive treatments at once.
✨ It’s the most effective single treatment for advanced skin damage, acne scarring, and deep wrinkles.
Healing usually takes 7–14 days, but the results are worth it—smoother, tighter, and more youthful skin.
What Is Fractional CO2 Laser?
Fractional CO2 laser is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment performed by dermatologists or physicians. It uses carbon dioxide (CO2) laser energy to remove the outer layers of damaged skin and stimulate new cell growth.
How it works:
- Short-pulsed CO2 light energy is delivered in a scanning pattern.
- Tiny microthermal zones penetrate deep into the skin.
- Old cells are replaced with new, healthy skin.
- Collagen production is boosted, leading to firmer and smoother texture.
Conditions Treated by Fractional CO2 Laser
Although most popular for acne scar reduction, fractional CO2 laser can treat a wide range of skin concerns:
- Acne scars and pitted scars
- Fine lines and deep wrinkles
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Age spots and sun damage
- Enlarged pores and oil glands (especially around the nose)
- Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone
- Sagging skin and skin laxity
- ストレッチマーク
- Warts
- Post-facelift irregularities
Treatment is most commonly performed on the 顔, but it can also be done on the neck, hands, and arms。
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Fractional CO2 laser is ideal for people who want to minimize:
✔ Acne scars
✔ Fine lines and wrinkles
✔ Enlarged pores
✔ Uneven tone or texture
✔ Pigmentation
Not suitable for:
- Individuals with active acne breakouts, open wounds, or facial infections
- Patients taking isotretinoin (Accutane)

👉 Always consult a licensed dermatologist before undergoing treatment.
The Procedure: What to Expect
- 準備: Local anesthetic cream is applied 30–45 minutes before treatment.
- 処理: The session lasts 15–20 minutes.
- Process: Laser energy removes damaged skin layers while creating microscopic thermal zones.
- Healing: Healthy tissue between treated zones accelerates recovery.
Most patients describe the sensation as mild prickling. Thanks to anesthesia, the treatment is generally comfortable.
Recovery and Aftercare
Recovery time is 5–7 days on average.
Possible side effects:
- Redness and swelling (usually subsides in a few days)
- Temporary scabbing or peeling
- Rare cases: prolonged redness, hyperpigmentation (especially in darker skin), or infection
Post-care tips:
- Apply sunscreen daily and avoid direct sun exposure
- Use gentle cleansers and moisturizers

- Apply ice packs or compresses for swelling
- Avoid swimming, workouts, and environments that risk infection
