Age, sun exposure, and environmental stresses can take a toll on our skin, producing fine lines, wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, and even scarring from past bouts with acne. CO2 laser resurfacing can help reverse this damage safely, effectively, and quickly. The gentle laser treatment vaporizes the outer layer of damaged skin while introducing heat into the sub-dermal layers of the skin, promoting increased cell turnover and collagen production.

When you visit Skin Clinic Med Spa for one of our laser treatments in Riverside, you’ll start off with a consultation with one of our laser specialists. During this conversation, we take the time to learn more about you and develop your personalized treatment plan based on your wants and needs.

During your appointment, you’ll be able to sit back and relax with the protective goggles we provide. We’ll start by applying a topical numbing cream to your skin to ensure your comfort throughout the treatment. Next, your laser specialist will carefully guide the laser device across your skin. While specific treatment steps may vary depending on the procedure, we’ll make sure you’re fully prepared and informed before each session
While CO2 laser treatment is generally safe, potential risks include skin burns, rashes, infections, or redness. By carefully following your provider’s instructions before, during, and after the procedure, you can greatly reduce the chances of complications.
The healing process after CO2 laser resurfacing typically lasts between three to ten days, although recovery may extend up to three weeks depending on the treated area and the laser’s depth. During this time, the skin may appear red and form scabs, but applying ice packs can help reduce any swelling. It’s important to keep the area clean and to change dressings regularly to promote healing. Additionally, your new skin will be more sensitive to sunlight for up to a year, so consistent use of sunscreen is essential to protect it.
CO2 laser resurfacing is ideal for those seeking a powerful, non-surgical solution to address aging, scars, and uneven skin texture. It’s perfect for individuals wanting smoother, more radiant skin while achieving long-lasting improvements with minimal recovery time.
