Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if CO2RE treatments are right for me?
Ideal candidates for CO2RE are in their 30’s or older with skin damaged by exposure to the sun, age spots, fine lines, discoloration, rough texture and other skin imperfections. It is ideal for anyone seeking younger looking skin without the long downtime associated with conventional resurfacing procedures.
What is the CO2RE procedure like?
You can expect some moderate discomfort during the treatment, but the topical anesthetic applied prior to the procedure typically makes any discomfort tolerable. Also an anti-anxiety medication may be prescribed during the treatment session. Over-the-counter pain relievers may be taken in the days after the procedure to alleviate any residual discomfort.
Is CO2RE safe?
Yes. You should speak with your practitioner about your complete medical and skin history to minimize the potential for any negative reactions.
How many CO2RE treatments will I need?
Each patient is different, but typically one to three session depending on the strength of the laser settings. Some patients may not be able to tolerate higher settings requiring additional treatments. Generally you will see the difference you want after only one treatment. In the days after the treatment your skin will gradually look softer and smoother. The age spots and uneven textures will start to show immediate improvement. The skin will continue to improve for several months following the treatment.
How long will the results last?
The durability of CO2RE results approaches that of surgical procedures. However, there are a number of variables that will determine how long you can expect the results to last, including your health, age and how you care for your skin after treatment.
What can I expect after my procedure?
Immediately following the procedure you can expect a sensation similar to a sunburn, lasting several hours. You can expect peeling of dead skin from the treatment area. This is a natural exfoliation process that may last 7-10 days.
Do I need to take any special precautions after treatment?
Aquaphor and sunscreen is recommended during the healing process and for the weeks and months following treatment. For more aggressive treatments, vinegar/water soaks may be advised.
How much do treatments cost?
Cost depends on the area being treated, the condition being treated, and the aggressiveness of the treatments themselves. We will explain the different treatment options and their costs during your consultation.
