During your CO2 laser session, Dr. Segura cleans the skin and applies a topical numbing cream for comfort. The laser device then delivers precise, controlled energy to the treatment area. This process removes damaged skin cells and stimulates collagen production, improving skin texture and tone.

The procedure typically takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the size and condition of the area being treated. While you may experience some warmth or tingling during the session, most patients find the process comfortable and tolerable.

The CO2 laser offers a powerful solution for comprehensive skin rejuvenation, effectively reducing wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation in a single treatment. By stimulating collagen production, it also enhances skin elasticity and firmness, delivering a smoother, more youthful appearance over time. This non-surgical procedure provides significant improvement without the need for invasive techniques, making it a convenient option for achieving lasting results. With outcomes that can endure for years when paired with proper skincare, the CO2 laser is both effective and versatile, tailored to meet your unique skin concerns and help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

After your CO2 laser treatment, it’s normal to experience redness, swelling, and peeling as your skin begins healing. These effects typically last 5–7 days, with gradual improvements in texture and tone over the following weeks.

To ensure optimal healing, follow these aftercare tips:

• Keep the treated area moisturized and protected with SPF 30+ sunscreen.
• Avoid sun exposure, hot water, and harsh skincare products during recovery.
• Use a gentle cleanser and follow Dr. Segura’s post-treatment instructions.
