Fractional Laser Resurfacing
At Dermapure Chicoutimi, we offer Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing, an advanced, non-invasive treatment designed to improve skin texture and tone. Ideal for reducing acne scars, sun damage, age spots, and deeper wrinkles, this cutting-edge laser technology effectively removes damaged skin cells while stimulating collagen production.
Using fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) laser energy, the treatment creates microscopic columns of thermal stimulation, targeting both the superficial and deeper layers of the skin. This controlled process enhances the skin’s natural healing response, leading to smoother, firmer skin with a refreshed appearance. Whether you’re in Chicoutimi or the greater Saguenay region, our team is here to help you achieve radiant, rejuvenated skin.
Fractional CO2 laser is known for its effectiveness in addressing various skin concerns, including uneven pigmentation, acne scarring, and the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles. The procedure is suitable for all skin types, though individuals with darker skin tones may require customized treatment plans to ensure safety and minimize risks like scarring.
Most patients experience significant improvement in the appearance of skin imperfections, including smoother skin, reduced sunspots, and diminished acne scars. The collagen remodeling triggered by fractional CO2 laser treatments also helps tighten loose skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
During your consultation, one of our experienced providers will assess your skin type, medical history, and skin concerns to develop a tailored treatment plan. This ensures that your fractional CO2 laser treatment is both effective and safe.
The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the treatment area. While some numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort, patients may feel mild heat or tingling during the treatment. A cooling device or ice pack may be used to further enhance comfort.
CO2 Laser is a deep acting treatment that will require some recovery time while your skin heals. Patients usually report a mild sunburn-like sensation immediately following treatment. Within 2-5 days, your skin will begin peeling, revealing new skin underneath. Most patients report full recovery taking 7-10 days with the potential for mild redness. It's essential to follow aftercare instructions, including the use of broad-spectrum sunscreen, to protect your skin and promote healing.
Treatment prices vary based on your individual needs and the specific procedure performed. To learn more about pricing, we invite you to contact your clinic or schedule a consultation with our experts.
Post-treatment results begin to appear as your skin heals, with significant improvements in texture and tone within 2-4 weeks. The full effects of the fractional CO2 laser resurfacing treatment will be visible after several months, as collagen production continues. To maintain results, regular follow-up treatments are recommended. Your provider will guide you on a maintenance schedule suited to your skin type and goals.
Active Infections: If you have an active infection, such as cold sores or bacterial infections, the treatment may need to be postponed. Pregnancy or Breastfeeding: Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should avoid this treatment. Certain Medical Conditions: Individuals with autoimmune diseases or a history of keloid scarring should consult with their healthcare provider before proceeding.
