Most patients require only a single treatment; however, a subset of patients may benefit from a touch-up treatment at a later date.

Recovery After CO2 Laser Resurfacing

After your laser procedure, you will be required to use a therapeutic cream (Aquaphor) for 5-7 days. Redness, tightness of the skin, and a sunburn sensation are normal side effects during the healing process. After the first week, you will notice a significant reduction in scarring, wrinkles, and age spots. Additionally, your body will continue to produce new collagen, further enhancing your results over the next 6-9 months.

Am I a Good Candidate for CO2 Skin Resurfacing in Westchester, NY?

During your private consultation, Dr. Anaïs Carniciu will assess your medical history and evaluate your skin to ensure that CO2 laser resurfacing in Westchester at New York Eye and Face will be the best option for you to achieve your cosmetic goals. Ideal candidates for the procedure are in good mental and physical health and have realistic expectations for improvement rather than perfection.
