Question 1

What is C02 Fractional Laser?

Accepted Answer

CO₂ fractional laser is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that uses a carbon dioxide laser to create microscopic channels in the skin. These tiny "fractions" of treated skin trigger your body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen production and replacing damaged skin cells with fresh, healthy tissue.
It’s like hitting the “reset” button on your skin—targeting fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, acne scars, enlarged pores, and overall skin tone and texture.

Question 2

When will I see results?

Accepted Answer

Results appear in two phases:
 • Initial Glow: Most people notice a fresher, smoother look within 7–10 days, once the peeling phase is complete.
 • Long-Term Benefits: Collagen remodeling happens more slowly, so skin keeps improving for up to 3–6 months after your treatment.

Question 3

Who will benefit from the treatment?

Accepted Answer

CO₂ laser is ideal for:
 • Women and men over 30–40+ with visible signs of aging
 • Those with acne scarring or sun damage
 • Clients seeking non-surgical skin tightening or resurfacing
 • People with uneven skin tone, texture, or large pores
It’s especially powerful for mature skin looking for a real transformation—not just a surface-level glow.

Question 4

Does the whole treatment process hurt?

Accepted Answer

You’ll feel a warm, prickling sensation during the treatment, but numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimise discomfort.
Afterwards, your skin may feel sunburnt for a few hours to a few days. Most clients describe it as manageable, especially when you know the results are so worth it.

Question 5

Which areas can be treated?

Accepted Answer

CO₂ fractional laser can be used on the face, neck, chest, and hands to address:
 • Fine lines and wrinkles
 • Pigmentation, sun damage, and age spots
 • Acne scars and other textural irregularities
 • Enlarged pores
 • Loose or crepey skin
 • Stretch marks (in some cases)

Question 6

What aftercare is recommended?

Accepted Answer

Aftercare is key to great results and a comfortable recovery:
 • Keep skin clean with gentle products for 7–10 days
 • Avoid sun exposure—SPF is a must!
 • Apply healing creams as directed
 • No makeup for at least 7 days or until peeling stops
 • Stay hydrated and avoid anything that could irritate your skin (saunas, hot showers, retinols, etc.)
We’ll give you a detailed aftercare plan tailored to your treatment intensity.

Question 7

Are There Any Side Effects?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but they’re typically short-lived and expected. These may include:
 • Redness and swelling (2–7 days)
 • Skin peeling or flaking (around day 3–5)
 • Mild itching or tightness
 • Temporary darkening of pigmentation before it fades
More rarely, side effects may include infection, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (especially in darker skin types), or delayed healing.

Question 8

What’s the Skin Rejuvenation Process Like?

Accepted Answer

Here’s what happens post-treatment:
1. Day 1–3: Redness and swelling peak—skin feels hot and tight.
2. Day 3–5: Skin begins to peel or flake—don't pick!
3. Day 5–7: Fresh skin starts to emerge—glowing, smoother, tighter.
4. Weeks 2–6: Collagen rebuilds—skin gradually becomes firmer and more even.
5. Months 2–6: Full results unfold with renewed skin structure and tone.
It’s a journey worth taking if you want more than just a temporary glow.

Question 9

Who cannot have the treatment?

Accepted Answer

You may not be suitable if you:
 • Are pregnant or breastfeeding
 • Have active acne or open wounds
 • Have a history of keloid scarring
 • Have used Accutane in the past 6–12 months
 • Have very dark skin (Fitzpatrick V–VI) without careful pre-treatment due to risk of pigmentation changes
 • Are prone to cold sores (you’ll need antivirals beforehand)
 • Have certain autoimmune or connective tissue disorders
We’ll always carry out a comprehensive consultation to make sure this treatment is safe and effective for you.

Accepted Answer

Question 11

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

Accepted Answer

For optimal results, we recommend a series of 3 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart. This allows your skin to properly heal and build new collagen between sessions.
Some clients with deeper scarring or advanced ageing may benefit from an extra session or annual maintenance after the initial course. During your consultation, we’ll customise a treatment plan based on your skin’s needs and your goals.
