I had a subcision and C02 Laser Resurfacing done. When can I swim again? When can I work out in a gym?
Answer: Post CO2 laser activity Thank you for your question. I would recommend consulting the physician who treated you with the CO2 laser to advise you on the timeline for you returning to normal activities Your healing timeline will have direct relation to the settings used on the laser at time of treatment. Your doctor should be able to guide you in answering these questions. Thank you, and best of luck!

Answer: After laser CO2... Contact the office that you were treated at. A timeframe for resuming such activities such as swimming and working out depends on the level that your CO2 treatment was completed.

Answer: Surgical post op follow up and restrictions for subcision and CO2 laser- Dr Davin Lim Depends. So many factors that we, as advising members of the board do not know. As a guide- 5-8 days. There are many variables regarding your question- I will name 10, 1. Depth of subcision 2. Extent of subcision- was it only with one point, was it multi level- NOKOR vs cannula vs instrument vs RF assisted 3. CO2 laser - density? 4. CO2 laser power or fluency 5. The amount of passes or overlap 6. The CO2 laser itself. Long PD vs Short PD 7. The make and model of the CO2- e.g. 30 watts from UltraPulse is not the same as 30 watts from Edge Fractional CO2 8. Your post op care to date- emollients, care - compliance vs non compliance 9. Your medical history 10. Your swimming and gym activities - are you going to do a hard work out that may compromise your care and result. As you can see these are just 10 factors that will have bearing on your end result. All surgeons that I know of will give you are comprehensive guide as to what you can or can not do. All the best, Dr Davin S. Lim. Brisbane. Australia.

Answer: Exercise After Laser Your surgeon will have post operative instructions for you to follow. Most of my patients resume gym and swimming at 3 weeks post op.
