Crepey skin on lower cheek close to mouth area. Will CO2 fix this? What are my other options?

Yes, fractional CO2 laser treatments will typically significantly improve crepey skin in the lower face and mouth area.  More advanced fractional CO2 lasers (e.g. Active and Deep Fx laser) can be adjusted to treat minor to very significant texture and wrinkles issues in these areas.However, an in-person examination with a plastic surgeon would be required to more accurately recommend the best treatment program, which may include fillers and a skin care product regimen.The attached link and website provides more information.I hope this helps.

Fractional CO2 laser is an excellent tool for skin rejuvenation in our center in Santa Monica. We use the fractional multi-depth ablative approach to help resurface the skin, recontour acne scars, improve incisional plastic surgery scars, and reduce surface irregularities from skin tone to dark pigmentation. Our approach utilizes a multi-depth approach that targets melanocytes in the epidermis and collagen fibroblasts in the dermis. This approach can be combined with a TCA Peel in a process known as a sapphire peel. Fractional laser is excellent for acne scars and contour scars in the skin. Patients are advised to undergo skin protocols with Melarase creams before and after treatment to help reduce pigmentation. Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. After the laser, we expect redness for a few weeks as the skin improves. PRP and Hydrafacial enzyme facials can further improve skin quality after fractional co2.

I suggest posting photos for us to help make a decision for you.  In general co2 laser resurfacing is the gold standard best treatment for facial wrinkles when performed correctly.  Best, Dr. Emer.
