How a CO2 Fractional Laser Treatment Works

CO2 fractional laser resurfacing is a precise, controlled procedure that removes damaged skin layers while stimulating collagen production. Here’s what happens during a typical appointment:

Step 1 - Consultation

Your appointment begins with a thorough consultation where your provider examines your skin, reviews your medical history, and discusses your aesthetic goals. They'll check for any contraindications like active acne or recent sun exposure, explain potential results, and customize a treatment plan for your skin type and concerns.

Step 2 - Preparation

Before treatment, your skin is cleansed to remove all makeup, oils, and impurities. A topical numbing cream (usually containing lidocaine) is then applied and left on for 30-60 minutes to minimize discomfort. You'll be given protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the laser light.

Step 3 - Laser Treatment

Your provider adjusts the CO2 laser settings based on your skin's needs. The device delivers precise beams of light that create microscopic treatment zones in your skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact. During the 30-90 minute procedure (depending on treatment area).

Step 4 - Aftercare

Right after treatment, your skin will appear red and swollen. Your provider applies a soothing ointment and may use cooling devices to ease discomfort. You'll receive detailed aftercare instructions including how to clean your skin, recommended moisturizers, and when to schedule follow-up visits.

Step 5 - Healing Phase

Post-treatment, expect 3 days of swelling and sensitivity (don't pick scabs), followed by 3-7 days of peeling—keep skin moisturized and protected from sun. Makeup can resume after week 2 as collagen rebuilds, with full results visible by 2-6 months. Results last 1-5 years with proper care.

Step 6 - Maintenance

For sustained results, some patients choose annual touch-up sessions. Your provider can recommend an appropriate maintenance schedule based on your skin's response to treatment.

testimonials

It was miserable living with constant tiredness, no motivation, brain fog, and weight gain. This is what I dealt with for years until I was put on TRT. After trying to deal with my symptoms on my own, I realized I wasn't getting anywhere. This is when I sought out Dr McDaniel. He did blood work, finding out my testosterone was considerably now. Dr M put me on TRT and within a few months, I literally felt like myself again" TRT has been a complete game changer for me! I was a little nervous initially, but it's been very easy to give myself the injections and the results have been fantastic. I have more energy and my weight has been easier to control. It's like my biological clock has been moved back 20 years! I highly recommend TRT and Dr. McDaniel.

I had been struggling with weight gain and low energy levels even though I was exercising 5 days a week and watching what I ate. Dr McDaniel ran some blood work and discovered by hormone levels were off and he started me on TRT. The self-injections are very easy, and the results are phenomenal! I feel 20 years younger! I definitely recommend Dr. McDaniel and TRT!

I didn’t think it would make as much difference as it has, but the TRT that Dr. McDaniel has prescribed for me has been incredible! The self-injections are easy and convenient. I should have gone to see him sooner! Completely satisfied and highly recommend Dr. McDaniel.
