Fractional eCO2 laser is a modern device that helps address a variety of skin concerns. When appropriate treatment parameters are used, it makes it possible to reduce scars and hyperpigmentation without the need for surgical intervention.
Laser removal of scars and hyperpigmentation is a commonly used method because it provides relatively fast and remarkable results. After the application of an anaesthetic cream, the procedure is virtually painless. In the hands of an experienced practitioner, it is also safe. During the treatment, the laser light heats the pigment cells, causing their damage. Spots and areas of hyperpigmentation darken immediately after the procedure and after a few days either disappear or become visibly lighter. To achieve the full effect, 2–3 treatment sessions are recommended (depending on the number and size of the lesions), performed at intervals of 4–5 weeks.
Scar removal works by creating microchannels within the scar tissue. This leads to increased collagen production in the treated area. In other words, old and damaged skin is replaced with new, healthy skin. During cell renewal, the skin tone also becomes more even. Thanks to the application of an anaesthetic cream, the procedure is generally quite comfortable.
The secret of this treatment’s effectiveness lies in the high-class device, namely the fractional eCO2 laser, which is distinguished by its exceptionally broad capabilities. It is also highly precise, which ensures a high level of safety. After the procedure, the patient may notice redness, swelling and tenderness of the skin. After a few days, the skin in the treated area begins to peel. Other side effects occur very rarely.
