CO2 Laser Resurfacing

Laser surgery for wrinkles accomplishes improvement in wrinkles and acne scars. Some lasers (the CO2 and erbium) accomplish this by vaporizing superficial damaged skin cells and allowing the remaining collagen to become thicker and healthier. As a result, fine wrinkles will be removed and dynamic wrinkles will be improved (see Wrinkles for an explanation of dynamic and fine wrinkles). Acne scars will appear less obvious. The CO2 laser will also tighten your skin, smooth your skin texture, improve your complexion, and possibly your skin color. The N-Lite laser works by stimulating collagen production alone, rather than by vaporizing superficial skin cells.
