Fractional CO2 Laser Treatment in Troy, MI
High-Impact Results. Minimal Downtime.
Advanced Skin Resurfacing for Dramatic Rejuvenation
Turn back the clock on your skin. The Fractional CO2 Laser is one of the most powerful non-surgical treatments available for deep skin rejuvenation. It helps reduce wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and uneven texture—revealing smoother, brighter, younger-looking skin.
What Is
Fractional CO2 Laser?
Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing uses targeted beams of light to remove damaged skin cells and stimulate collagen production in the deeper layers.
Unlike traditional lasers that treat the entire surface, fractional lasers treat a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving healthy skin in between. This speeds up healing and delivers impressive results with less downtime.
What can it treat?
It’s most commonly used on the face, neck, chest, and hands.
Why Patients Choose Fractional CO2
The Gold Standard in Skin Renewal
Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing is widely regarded as one of the most effective treatments for skin rejuvenation. Patients choose this technology because it offers dramatic improvements in texture and tone, visibly reduces deep lines and scars, and stimulates long-lasting collagen production. The treatment is highly customizable, allowing for gentle or more intensive resurfacing based on your skin's needs. With proper preparation, it is safe for most skin types and delivers powerful, natural-looking results that continue to improve over time.
Smart Technology. Natural Healing.
How It Works
The CO2 laser creates microscopic columns in the skin, which trigger a natural healing response. Your body replaces damaged tissue with new collagen and elastin—two essential building blocks of firm, healthy skin.
Because only small zones are treated during each session, recovery is faster and more comfortable than full ablative resurfacing.
What to Expect
Before, During & After Treatment
Step 1: Consultation
We evaluate your skin concerns and medical history, then create a personalized treatment plan based on your goals and tolerance for downtime.
Step 2: Treatment Session
A topical anesthetic is applied to keep you comfortable. The laser handpiece is passed across the skin, targeting precise treatment zones.
Sessions typically last 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the area.
Step 3: Recovery
Expect redness, warmth, and mild swelling for a few days. Skin may feel dry or tight as it heals and peels. Full healing can take 5 to 10 days, depending on treatment intensity.
Improvements in texture and tone will continue to develop over the next several weeks as new collagen forms.
Reveal Smoother, Younger Skin
Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing is a game-changing solution for people ready to invest in a more radiant complexion.
FAQ—Fractional CO2 Laser
Who is a good candidate for Fractional CO2 Laser?
Anyone looking to improve moderate to severe skin concerns—such as deep wrinkles, acne scars, and sun damage—may benefit. It’s best suited for lighter skin tones, though darker skin types can be treated with special care and preparation.
How many sessions will I need?
Many patients see excellent results from just one session. For deeper concerns, a series of 2 to 3 treatments may be recommended.
Does it hurt?
Most patients tolerate the procedure well with a topical numbing cream. You may feel a warm or prickling sensation during treatment. Mild post-treatment discomfort is common and managed with cool compresses and soothing creams.
What are the side effects?
Temporary redness, swelling, flaking, and a sunburn-like sensation are common. There is a low risk of infection or pigmentation changes when post-care instructions are followed closely.
How long is the downtime?
Most patients take 5 to 7 days off from social activities. Redness may persist slightly longer but can be covered with makeup after the skin has healed.
How long do results last?
Results are long-lasting with proper skincare and sun protection. The treatment helps you look younger and fresher for years, with ongoing collagen remodeling.
What’s the difference between CO2 and other laser treatments?
CO2 lasers offer deeper resurfacing and more dramatic results than lighter lasers like IPL or erbium. It’s ideal for more advanced signs of aging or scarring.
