The Fractional CO2 laser passes microscopic columns of energy into deep layers of the skin, creating a production of new collagen and elastin. The process allows for controlled damage to the cells, triggering the skin’s natural healing process. After the treatment, cells will grow back stronger, firmer, and faster, resulting in smoother and tighter evenly toned skin.
Fractional CO2 laser treatment employs a sophisticated carbon dioxide laser to deliver precise bursts of high-energy light to the skin’s surface. These laser beams create tiny, controlled micro-injuries, targeting damaged skin cells and removing thin layers of skin tissue. This process resurfaces the skin and stimulates the body’s natural collagen production, promoting the growth of new, healthy skin cells. The result is a rejuvenated, smoother, and more even-toned complexion with reduced appearance of scars, wrinkles, and other skin imperfections.
Clients suffering from any of the following conditions might consider this treatment:
Fractional laser resurfacing is particularly beneficial for acne scar treatment, stretch mark removal, and anti-aging treatment. It offers a gentle yet effective solution for penetrating deeply into the skin’s surface to rejuvenate both the epidermis and dermis with minimal discomfort.

This treatment significantly improves and evens out skin tone, especially in addressing uneven skin tone and texture.

Fractional Erbium Laser
Erbium, or ErbiumYAG, lasers use infrared light to penetrate thermal energy superficially below the skin’s surface. Tiny microthermal zones are produced in the middle layer of skin, damaging collagen and aged skin cells, promoting the generation of new collagen and healthy cell regeneration. Erbium laser is a milder, less invasive treatment option than a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser.
Fractional CO2 Laser Treatment
While non-surgical, this treatment is considered to be more invasive than other skin resurfacing treatments, which is why it achieves such noticeable results.
Fractional RF Resurfacing Treatment
Is also very popular and uses an array of silicone-coated needles that penetrate in unison across the skin’s surface and release ablative coagulation, stimulating a fractional production of new collagen, ground substance, wrinkle reduction and tightening.
Fractional Erbium Laser Treatment
Fractional erbium laser treatments are more common in older patients. As it is generally compared to micro-needling, the procedure targets tissue that is deeper below the surface, resulting in improved collagen production. Erbium fractional laser treatments are not ideal for darker skin tones due to a high risk of discoloration. Consult with Dr. Chen’s team for any hesitations.
At SpaMedica, a consultant will conduct a thorough medical history and physical assessment. They will talk you through the options and help you select the most appropriate procedure for your skin.
The treatment, under Dr. Chen’s guidance, is administered in our state-of-the-art suites. We ensure a comfortable experience with the use of Nitrous Oxide, topical anesthesia, and local anesthesia. IV sedation may also be used for combined procedures.
Here are some guidelines for how to prepare for your laser treatment:
You should expect some redness and warmth immediately after the procedure, subsiding within 2-48 hours.
You may return to work in 3 – 7 days, depending on the treatment’s intensity. We will provide a detailed post-care treatment sheet and discuss skincare routines during your consultation.
Most side effects subside within two weeks. Once healed, use green-based foundational makeup to tone down redness and opt for oil-free cosmetics. Our team will guide you through a detailed aftercare plan, including skincare routines and products to use or avoid for optimal healing and results.
Post-treatment skincare is crucial for optimal results. We recommend gentle, non-irritating cleansers and moisturizers to soothe the skin. Avoid products containing retinoids or other harsh chemicals for at least a week post-treatment.

Avoid:
Resume normal activities as advised by Dr. Chen, typically within a week. However, avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for at least two weeks.

At SpaMedica, we are committed to reducing or eliminating painful treatments You’ve probably heard that laser treatments feel as if a rubber band is snapping against your skin. We use a potent combination of Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas), topical anesthetic cream, an air chiller and local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. Though truthfully, the sensation depends on the depth and area of the procedure along with your pain tolerance. Deeper ablative laser treatments such as C02 /RF resurfacing may require a local anesthetic to keep you comfortable.
Yes, this type of treatment is safe and effective for facial acne scarring. Still, we recommend that you come in for a consultation to pinpoint exactly which laser or RF resurfacing procedure will work best for your complexion.
Whether you have scheduled appointments for injectables before your CO2 treatment or vice versa, there should be a two-week window between each procedure to give the skin a chance to heal. Despite what you may have heard, laser treatments do not melt fillers. It’s actually recommended that Botox be injected at least two weeks before so that the collagen can support the smoothing of the skin. Having said that, Dr. Chen and the other SpaMedica Plastic Surgeons have a tremendous amount of treatment experience and will usually combine Fractional CO2/RF, Fillers and Botox in one carefully and expertly executed treatment session.
