What can be done to correct uneven texture caused by Co2 laser?

Changes in skin texture, such as the appearance of an orange peel texture or unevenness, can sometimes occur following certain treatments. The combination of CO2 laser, subcision, and Morpheus8 is an intensive approach to addressing scarring, and variations in individual responses can lead to unexpected outcomes.

Changes in skin texture, such as an orange peel appearance, could potentially be related to the healing process after CO2 laser and other treatments. While some texture changes are expected during the initial healing phase, they might improve over time as your skin continues to regenerate and remodel.

I recommend scheduling a follow-up consultation with the healthcare professional who performed your treatments. They can assess your skin's current condition, discuss your concerns, and provide a clearer understanding of what might have contributed to the texture changes.

Depending on the assessment, your provider might recommend specific skincare products or treatments to help address the hyperpigmentation and texture issues. These might include topical treatments, gentle exfoliation, and nourishing skincare routines.

It's important to remember that individual responses to treatments can vary widely. While some temporary changes might occur during the healing process, most people see improvement over time as the skin's natural healing mechanisms come into play.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.
