CO2 Laser Q&A

Basically I am 34 years old As a teenager I was a sun worshipper but have been fairly sensible from early twenties onwards. I now live in Doha and I thought I had been vigilant with my suncream, I feel like my skin is trashed. Pigmentation, dry , lines etc. I want to get co2re laser because I want to undo this damage. I want ablative as I really want to improve my skin in terms of tone\teXture/laxity. However, I have a thin face. Is it true that ablative laser causes volume loss?

I'm looking at fractural CO2 for dark circles. I have a natural crease/line that makes my under eye seem hollow. A doctor that recommended CO2 for discolouration (3 rounds) then either filler, bio filler or fat transfer for the under eye shape.

Hello, I'm going to have my first session of co2 fractional laser and I don't know if I should do dermaplaning or shave the peach fuzz on my face before that. I'm very hairy and I'm afraid it might burn the peach fuzz and therefore me.

Obviously, I do not have an extreme laxity in my face yet (early 30s) but I do see room for improvement and am hoping there is some type of minimally invasive option besides a facelift. I am working on collagen production (RLT, retinol, good skincare etc) but I am really unhappy with my face currently. I am open to anything at this point.

Hi I had a mini lift, co2 laser and laser chin about 1 year now . I look a lot worse I even went for a fat transfer around eye area in September due to fat loss . However now I just look worse my face is getting dryer and huge visible pores makeup wont cover it . What should I do

I have a 3mm slit on my nose that's from two pores somehow combining as one. I think it happened from having a facial/extractions years ago. What would be the best way to remove this?

Hello In the case of slightly indented scarring or atrophic scarring, in expert hands which laser technology is better to smooth out/ blend in a scar which is slightly atrophic? Ultrapulse co2 or erbium? There is so much conflicting scientific information and it seems some experts prefer co2 while others prefer erbium. I am specifically concerned with treatment of a slightly indented scar (not acne!)

I have heavy wrinkles under my eyes which deepen dramatically when I smile. I look old and tired and I hate them! Wondering if Id see much benefit from CO2 laser (happy for a long recovery a the rest of my face would benefit from some brown spot reductions/lip line reduction - its just that the eyes bother me most). Very open to a fully ablative procedure. Or would something else be better? Not at all interested in fillers and on the fence about blepharoplasty

What kind of procedure o you recommend to improve the eyes area? CO2 or Thulium laser?

I am 26 years old and I have acne scars and I was wondering what would help improve them?
