How many CO2 sessions do I need? (Photo)

Question

Hello I would like to know if 4 sessions of C02 is enough to get decent result to lift nasal labial lines and slight eye puffiness? Or is it more like 8 sessions that I need? What questions should I be asking the spa about the machine they use to understand if it is effective or not? They also offer something called MIOOXIN, does anyone know what this is? Cheers.

Fractional laser should be combined with Sculptra and Radiesse in your case to help achieve the results you are requesting around the mouth. Fillers and laser resurfacing work very well together. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I am not sure you are speaking to the right procedure. CO2 laser rarely causes significant skin tightening to lift folds. CO2 laser is for wrinkles, and sun spots and reverses sun damage. You more likely need fillers and skin tightening procedures such as Thermage, Venus Legacy, Ultherapy etc.  I suggest a formal consultation with an expert.  Sculptra injections will help build collagen and lift over time.  Best, Dr. Emer.
