Dermaplaning or shaving before CO2 laser?

It is a good idea to both shave and dermaplane the face prior to laser resurfacing. Having fine hair/peach fuzz will not cause a burn, so don't worry about that. Fractional CO2 laser is great for skin rejuvenation. I hope that helps!

For your first session of CO2 fractional laser, I recommend opting for shaving rather than dermaplaning, especially if you have concerns about potential discomfort. Shaving your peach fuzz is a safe and effective way to prepare the treatment area. It won't interfere with the laser process and reduces the risk of any discomfort or irritation that could come from dermaplaning. Shaving ensures that the laser can target the intended areas without unnecessary complications. Prior to the session, ensure that the treatment area is free of products and makeup for optimal laser interaction. Always follow the advice and instructions provided by your medical professional to ensure a successful and comfortable laser treatment experience.
