The animation is scaled up, to show the fractional nature and accuracy of the laser. A remarkable tool for skin resurfacing, which stimulates collagen growth.
Our London clinic uses a range of modern lasers to treat your skin, an effective and non invasive approach. They can eliminate the need for traditional surgery, whilst bringing equal, or better success rates.
One system our clinicians often choose, is the Encore Ultrapulse CO2 laser. A fractional laser, able to deliver a beam which splits into a grid of tiny, individual treatment zones.
Targeting can be precise, leaving healthy, surrounding skin untouched. Valuable for a number of dermatological conditions, from surface changes to scarring, where symptoms can vary across small areas of your skin.
Staff carrying out CO2 laser treatment in our London clinic see a further benefit. An approach which can help to stimulate fresh tissue growth, rather than achieve the opposite.
Applications For CO2 Laser Treatment
CO2 lasers are used beyond medical dermatology, to treat skin ageing, wrinkles, age spots. A wonderful tool for precise resurfacing of the skin, for smoothing and creating an even color.
These cosmetic benefits add value to treatment for medical skin conditions, such as sun damage, scarring, or pigmentation issues. Research on efficacy has proven positive in each case, with an additional benefit.
The ability to target lasers accurately assists further, not least for areas where precision is vital. Penile papules treatment is a good example, or facial treatment, such as for acne, or delicate areas around your eyes.
Wherever imperfections in the skin are an issue, CO2 laser treatment can be seen as a primary option. In the skilled hands of consultant dermatologists, one of the most valuable recent advances.
A Proven & Available Solution
The US National Center for Biotechnology carried out a 60 patient trial on CO2 laser treatment. Their conclusion “Fractional, ultrapulsed CO2 laser resurfacing has proven to be both safe and effective.”
Treatment at our clinic has confirmed the same. Excellent immediate and long term results, an ability to stimulate new growth, to improve skin elasticity.
CO2 laser treatment is also highly focused, in terms of duration and the areas of skin treated. An out patient treatment with minimal interference, reducing downtime and allowing you to get on with life.
Our consultants will be pleased to discuss CO2 laser treatment with you, to establish whether this is the best option for you. Part of the detailed diagnosis and personal care we offer to all London dermatology patients.
