CO2 Laser Resurfacing

CO2 laser resurfacing is one of the most effective treatments for deep wrinkles, acne scarring, and sun-damaged skin. At Orlando Dermatology Center, the board-certified dermatologists use fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) laser technology to precisely remove damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating new collagen growth in the layers below. The result is firmer, smoother, more even-toned skin. The team customizes the depth and intensity of every treatment to your skin type and goals, and guides you through recovery for the best possible cosmetic outcome. Call the office in Oviedo, Orlando, Lake Mary, or Casselberry, Florida, today or book an appointment online to learn whether CO2 laser resurfacing is right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What skin concerns does CO2 laser resurfacing treat?
Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing is well-suited to deeper, more stubborn skin concerns, including: - Deep wrinkles and fine lines - Acne scars and other scarring - Sun damage and age spots - Uneven skin tone and texture - Enlarged pores - Precancerous skin growths By removing the outer layers of damaged skin and triggering your body’s natural collagen production, CO2 resurfacing reveals fresher, healthier skin and improves firmness over the months following treatment. Your provider examines your skin and reviews your goals to confirm whether CO2 resurfacing or a gentler laser option is the better fit.
What is recovery like after CO2 laser resurfacing?
Because CO2 resurfacing works at a deeper level than lighter laser treatments, it requires more downtime. For the first several days your skin will look and feel like a significant sunburn, with redness, swelling, and peeling as the new skin forms. Most people plan for about one to two weeks of social downtime depending on the depth of treatment. Your provider gives you detailed aftercare instructions — keeping the skin moisturized, avoiding sun exposure, and wearing daily sunscreen are essential to protect your results. Final results continue to improve for several months as new collagen develops. Call Orlando Dermatology Center or book online to schedule a CO2 laser resurfacing consultation.
