Consider the Fractional CO2 Laser To Treat Acne Scars, Sun Damage, and Aging

Published on September 30, 2014

The Fractional CO2 Resurfacing laser is one of the latest, greatest procedures in cosmetic surgery today. Skin that is showing signs of age, sun damage, or acne scars benefit from this procedure. Luckily, we have this revolutionary laser right here in Manhattan.

What is the Fractional CO2 Resurfacing Laser?

Fractional CO2 Resurfacing utilizes a laser to remove dead skin cells on the top layer of the skin. New skin cells then form and produce more collagen (a natural protein, found in abundance, in younger skin).

Why Fractional CO2 is one of your best treatment options in NYC

CO2 Resurfacing is much like the traditional chemical peels but without the possible adverse effects that can occur. Fractional CO2 Resurfacing requires the least amount of time for recovery, which is usually only a couple days. Additional treatments are necessary to produce the best results possible and are scheduled anywhere from four to six weeks.

Westchester Center for Dermatology is one of the best dermatological facilities in New York City. A team of highly-qualified and dedicated NYC dermatologists will discuss the procedure with you in order to determine if this method of skin resurfacing is right for you. A dermatologist will explain the process itself, the number of treatments needed, the recovery time, and answer all of your questions. Best of all, they can help you achieve the more youthful and radiant complexion you’ve always dreamed of.
