Our skin resurfacing service utilizes the advanced CO2 Laser machine to effectively rejuvenate and renew your skin.

What Is CO2 Laser?

CO2 Laser is a cutting-edge technology that delivers precise laser energy to remove damaged outer layers while powerfully stimulating collagen production improving skin texture, reducing wrinkles, and addressing pigmentation issues. The result is a smoother, more youthful complexion with noticeable improvement in skin tone and texture. Deep exfoliation through CO2 resurfacing allows us to address almost all visible aging conditions. By essentially resurfacing your skin, this aggressive treatment improves fine lines, deep wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, uneven tone, and large pores. This technology also allows for fractional treatments, meaning it can target specific problem areas with precision while leaving surrounding skin intact for faster healing.

What to Expect

Different Settings for Different Needs

The CO2 Laser is highly customizable, offering:

Light
Active
Deep
Scar settings

The technician operating the laser will carefully evaluate your skin’s condition to determine the appropriate energy levels and settings needed to achieve your goals. This is not a device you typically find in a standard med spa. Because it is one of the most powerful lasers available for reaching deep lines, it’s critical that it is administered by highly trained professionals. With advanced technology, we can now fine-tune settings for both full-field resurfacing and more delicate fractional passes, giving patients more options for tailored outcomes. Especially for patients in their 50s, 60s, and 70s, deeper CO2 treatments are often needed to reach the more entrenched wrinkles and deeper skin damage that naturally occur with age.

Comfort and Recovery

While some discomfort is expected, a numbing agent is used before the procedure to ensure your comfort. Recovery varies based on the intensity of the treatment:

Light to Active CO2: 3–5 days of redness and peeling.
Deep CO2: 4–10 days of recovery, with more significant redness and sensitivity.

Fractional CO2 treatments often allow patients to return to normal activities sooner while still achieving significant skin rejuvenation. We offer a specialized recovery kit and medical-grade skincare products to assist in healing, promote comfort, and enhance your final results. For those who opt to add exosome therapy, recovery time can be cut in half and collagen stimulation can be significantly enhanced.

Accelerate Recovery with Exosomes

CO2 laser resurfacing delivers powerful skin rejuvenation by targeting deep layers of the skin—but it also comes with a longer healing period. That’s where exosomes come in. Exosomes are regenerative messengers derived from stem cells that contain powerful growth factors and anti-inflammatory proteins. When applied after your CO2 treatment, they work beneath the surface to speed up skin repair, calm inflammation, and reduce downtime. By enhancing cellular communication and boosting collagen production by up to 600%, exosomes support faster healing, improved skin texture, and more dramatic results—without extending your recovery time. Experience a smarter, smoother recovery with the added power of exosomes.

Results

The treatment effectively improves skin texture, reduces wrinkles, minimizes pores, and addresses pigmentation concerns, resulting in a smoother, firmer, and more youthful complexion with long-lasting results. Results are often immediate—as soon as the exfoliation process is complete, you’ll notice smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin. Collagen production continues to improve your skin’s appearance for 3 to 6 months after the treatment, meaning your results will keep getting better over time. Fractional resurfacing can also be repeated more frequently for those looking for gradual improvements with less downtime, while deeper resurfacing provides dramatic results in fewer sessions. Most patients need 1–3 sessions depending on their age, skin condition, and aesthetic goals. A personalized plan will be discussed during your consultation to ensure you receive the best outcome.

Pricing

Treatments start at $400, offering a transformative solution for those looking to refresh and revitalize their skin.
