CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing in Miami Beach, FL

How does CO2 Laser work?
At The Miami Center For Plastic Surgery our CO2 Laser Treatment produces thousands of tiny but deep columns of treatment in your skin, known as “microscopic treatment zones”. This treatment eliminates old epidermal pigmented cells. For every microscopic zone the laser targets and treats intensively, it leaves the surrounding tissue unaffected and intact.
This “fractional” treatment allows the skin to heal much faster than if the entire area were treated at once, using the body’s natural healing process to create new, healthy tighter tissue to replace skin imperfections.

This treatment effectively reduces signs of aging and skin imperfections, promoting collagen production for a tighter, more youthful skin appearance with minimal recovery time.

Frequently Asked Questions about CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing
What skin concerns can CO2 laser skin resurfacing address?
CO2 laser skin resurfacing effectively treats various skin issues, including acne scars, age spots, sun damage, enlarged pores, fine lines (especially around the mouth and eyes), birthmarks, enlarged oil glands, warts, and liver spots.
How does CO2 laser skin resurfacing work?
The procedure uses a CO2 laser to create thousands of microscopic treatment zones in the skin, eliminating old, pigmented cells. This fractional approach allows the skin to heal faster, as untreated areas remain intact, promoting the body's natural healing process to generate new, healthy tissue.
How many sessions are needed to see results?
While noticeable improvements can be seen after just one session, typically two to five sessions are recommended for optimal results. Dr. Gabriel Salloum will assess your specific needs to determine the appropriate number of treatments.
What can I expect during and after the procedure?
Prior to treatment, a numbing cream is applied to the targeted areas to minimize discomfort. During the procedure, cold air may be used for added comfort. Post-treatment, patients may experience some redness and swelling, but these effects typically subside within a few days.
What can I expect after CO2 Laser resurfacing?
With the CO2 laser typically two to five sessions are required but even just one treatment offers very noticeable results. After your Miami CO2 Laser treatment, the area treated tends to experience some mild swelling for about two days, followed by about a week of mild to moderate redness and peeling.
What is the aftercare of the CO2 Laser resurfacing?
Your skin will naturally and vigorously exfoliate as new skin replaces dead tissue. Be sure to use sunscreen at least twice daily to protect your skin from sun exposure during both the healing phase and for several months after treatment. Over the following weeks and months, the body repairs the deeper dermal tissues that have been affected by the CO2 treatment, producing longer beneficial changes associated with a healthy, youthful appearance.
