FAQs About Fractional CO2 Laser in Bangalore

We like to assist our clients with a knowledgeable and in-depth collective approach to answer for all your queries and fears with our FAQ mega-base.

How does it work?

The Fractional CO2 laser uses multiple microbeams of CO2 laser which from a grid to treat the surface of the skin. The ablation happens in areas with some areas of sparing, so that healing is quick without any side effects. The laser causes a thermal energy zone called MENDs, which stimulate the fibroblast cells to lay new collagen, causing improvement in skin texture, acne scar, wrinkles, and in reducing the pore size. The ablated area allows the pigment of tattoo to escape outside helping tattoo removal.

What to expect post-treatment?

Mild redness and stinging sensation will be seen just after the treatment and last up to 24 hours. There will be grids of small scabs seen over the treated area, which will be visible for up to 72 hours post treatments. The dermatologist will recommend mild emollients, with physical sunscreen and skin regenerating creams.

When can the results be seen?

Since the results depend on the dermal mechanism of skin fibroblast remodeling the new collagen, it usually takes 4 to 6 weeks to see improvement after a single treatment. However, results are cumulative, and anywhere between 4 to 6 treatments are recommended depending on the condition being treated.
