SCAR REMOVAL very small area
Description
Carbon dioxide (CO2) laser resurfacing can help reduce the appearance of scars from acne, trauma, or surgery. The laser uses short pulses of light or continuous light beams to remove thin layers of skin, while targeting a small amount of scar tissue during each treatment. This can help:
Acne scars
CO2 lasers can reduce the appearance of acne scars by causing thermal damage below the scar, which stimulates collagen production and blends the scar with the surrounding skin.
Surgical scars
CO2 lasers are said to cause less bleeding and crusting than dermabrasion.
Deep scars
CO2 lasers can use microscopically small "microbeams" to penetrate the skin and treat scar tissue, stimulating the body to produce new collagen.
Surface imperfections
CO2 lasers can also be used to correct color imperfections and treat the skin's surface texture.
