About the treatment

What is Fractional CO2 Laser?

A fractional CO2 laser creates thousands of microscopic treatment columns in the skin, leaving healthy skin between them to speed healing.

It is one of the strongest tools for scars and texture, so it needs careful planning and aftercare, especially on darker skin tones.

FAQ

Fractional CO2 Laser: your questions

Is it safe for Indian skin?

Yes, with conservative settings, preparation and strict sun protection to lower the risk of darkening.
