CO2 fractional laser or any more laser? (Photo)

Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.

Thank you for your question Eceemce. I am sorry to hear about your
situation. Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing is an outstanding treatment that
can address multiple aspects of aging in a single treatment. It can help with irregular texture such as bumps. Q-switched lasers and pico second lasers are used for tattoo removal. When there is both a tattoo and irregular texture, both such treatments may be performed. Improvement is seen slowly over months so patience is important. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
