What Is Helix CO2 Laser?
The Helix CO2 is a fractional laser skin resurfacing treatment that uses carbon dioxide (CO2) laser technology to precisely target and remove damaged skin layers. By vaporizing the top layers of skin, this ablative laser procedure stimulates the body’s natural healing process, encouraging the production of new collagen and elastin. The result is smoother, tighter, and more even-toned skin. Helix CO2 Laser is especially effective for treating deeper wrinkles, scars, and other significant skin concerns.

Your Helix CO2 Laser Treatment
During your Helix CO2 Laser session, our expert practitioners will tailor the treatment to address your specific skin concerns. The procedure involves using a CO2 laser to carefully remove the outer layers of damaged skin while stimulating deeper layers to regenerate. A topical anesthetic is applied before the procedure to ensure comfort. The entire process is designed to rejuvenate your skin from the inside out, leading to a fresher, more youthful appearance.
Helix CO2 Laser Recovery
After your Helix CO2 Laser treatment, you might notice some redness or swelling, a normal part of the healing process. If you’ve undergone a deeper treatment, you may experience some crusting or peeling. As these effects subside, rejuvenated new skin will emerge, revealing a more youthful complexion and significant improvement in your skin’s texture, tone, and firmness. Proper post-procedure skin care is crucial for promoting rapid healing and reducing the risk of infection. This generally involves gentle cleansers, protective ointments, or dressings and may include antibiotics and antiviral medications to support recovery and protect the skin. It’s also crucial to avoid sun exposure during this recovery period and adhere to all aftercare instructions provided by our team to ensure the best possible results.
