CO2 fractional vs Renuvion lasting results - how long do the results last after Renuvion?

C
cynjApr 19, 2019

I’m having the Renuvion peel in about a month, I’ve had the CO2 fractional laser, my question is how long do the results last after Renuvion? After CO2 my skin looked great, I used the advised Obagi line afterwards, sunscreen, non-pore clogging cosmetics & within 7 months my skin was back to the original look, age spots & all....I read after CO2 your results can last years with proper care & it did not....so is Renuvion going to be the same?

Yes, J Plasma can be used to improve the area around the lips. Like lasers, you'll need several treatments to see a real change. Microneedling with PRP will help fill out the deeper lines with plasma and new collagen. Please see an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
