A  month ago I had a CO2 laser treatment on my face, on my both cheeks because of big brown pigments.It healed 10 days, I had no irritation and was using Avene zinc cream.My skin looked so nice after that! Brown spots almost gone.But I have it back now only after two weeks!I am devastated.:((( Has it happened to anyone here?I am thinking about second treatment.How long shall I...

I had fractional CO2 laser done Feb. 26. What should I be expecting to see as of this date (April 5, 2010)?  At about the third week after my laser I really liked what I saw when looking at myself. Now today Im hoping I didnot waste my hard earned money. Am I expecting results to soon? Doctors feed back or somebody who has had c02 laser resurfacing.

Thank you for the information and for your time. However, I believe the question was what can be done after hypopigmentation has already resulted. Are any treatments known to be effective for correcting hypopigmentation caused by CO2 laser treatment? Any success stories out there? Thank you.

I have gotten Co2 laser many years ago and liked it. Now I would like to have it done again but seem to find only doctors that have just the pico sure. Co2 laser is only one treatment the other are more. Thanks everyone.  Tina

I was wondering if co2 results can be the same as needling with prp? Is co2 superior to needling for scars and wrinkles?

I survived the first "treatment" (The CIA should try this form of torture for information). Supposed to have 2 more!!?? How/Why object myself to this again?

I am scheduled for a CO2 skin resurfacing under my eyes only. I'm worried about the down time as I only have 5 days off before I have to go back to work. Has anyone else had this exact procedure and what did you look like after the 5th day? And were you happy with the results? Thanks!!

Hi I read somewhere that a CO2 laser treatment would remove my rosacea. But I also heard that it can worsen the condition. Help :-)

Hi community, I’m looking for a bit of hope and reassurance . I had C02 under my eyes four weeks ago and about two weeks ago developed darkness (brown like tanned skin) and redness under my eyes. I’ve been told by my surgeon to use pigmanorm bleaching cream and have woken up today evenredder than I was before- sort of like burn under my eyes. Has anyone been through this healing process ? Wil...

I do not want Fraxel or any fractionated lasers. I'm white as a ghost with a few very light brown age spots, mild laxity, slightly large pores. My facial skin chronically feels like like sandpaper and has a slight ruddy pinkness. Vbeam and Ipl did absolutely nothing. I have tried every topical and they do nothing for the roughness. I want to laser the whole top later off and start fresh. I do...

I am interested in getting a CO2 laser treatment on my face, but I've read reviews from people who think CO2 lasers caused fat loss on their face. Is there any risk at all of this?

Anyone have a successful outcome with CO2 laser resurfacing for the face. I'm looking for a specialist in the Chicago area and would really like a recommendation from a patient. This is for deep wrinkles and aging skin.Thanks

Primarily cheek pads?

Hello. My name is Linda, and I'm considering having C02 laser on my whole face. I would like to speak to anyone who has had this procedure done. Questions I have are basically recovery experiences.

I had my eye done with a Co2 laser yesterday. It has been 24 hours and my eyes are in pain, oozing yellowish liquid, and look like they are giant blister mot just swollen! I am horrified! Is this normal?
