CO2 Laser Expectations? Is this treatment ideal for neck skin laxity?

KateS2022Nov 27, 2022
Hi! Is this treatment ideal for targeting neck skin laxity and for texture and tightening? I definitely have “tech neck” and I’m wondering if this would be a good option for me. Also, does everyone peel from this procedure or do some people not peel? If you don’t peel, does that mean your treatment wasn’t effective? Thank you!!
