Will Fractional CO2 laser on breasts give me the results I desire?

Question

The skin on my breast has a rippled texture because of my recent weight loss. I am well aware that a laser treatment will not lift my breast the way a surgical breast lift will do, but will getting a fractional laser treatment done on my breasts get rid of the rippled texture or at the least improve it? I am trying to maintain my skins appearance without having anything very invasive done.

Absent a physical exam it is difficult to understand both the extent of your concerns or what treatments may work to correct the concerns. I have had great success with such treatments and a few disappointments. It really depends on a number of factors.  
Many factors come into play such as, age, social habits, general health, medications and so on. These factors will affect both the initial outcome and longevity of the treatment. 
If less than a 30% contraction of tissue is required, it may well be possible to achieve good results with a combination therapy. These treatments can, but generally do not include Co2 lasers.

Fractional and full ablative CO2 can help tighten the skin on the face, but they do not do an exceptional job on the body.  Body skin is different than the skin on your face.  It is usually very thin and does not respond to lasers as well as facial skin does.  Breast augmentation or a breast  reduction is the recommended treatment for loose skin on the breasts.
