CO2 FRACTIONAL LASER

The CO2 Fractional Laser is a revolutionary new skincare treatment that restores youthful looks and refines the facial contours without the need to go under the knife. It involves the application of tiny lasers which are penetrated deep into the skin’s layers, causing controlled damage to the cells which activates the body’s natural healing process. This encourages fresh new cells to be produced, firming the skin’s tone and revitalizing the complexion from deep within

The CO2 Fractional Laser is a light therapy treatment that delivers lasers deep into the skin to stimulate the production of new cells and collagen.

  • What is fractional resurfacing?

    Fractional resurfacing is a variation of traditional resurfacing of the skin where just a small percentage of the surface area of your skin is treated. The laser makes a large number of very small, highly controlled treatment points in a precise pattern on your skin. Because only a fraction of the skin’s surface area is actually treated,


    post-treatment healing is faster and you are able to resume normal activities sooner than with traditional CO2 resurfacing.

  • Why fractional CO2 Laser?

    CO2 lasers have been the gold-standard for resurfacing treatments for 20 years. This is because they are able to remove the outer layers of skin while heating the underlying tissues. This stimulates the production of new collagen which improves the tone and texture of your skin over time. By removing the upper layers of skin in a small percentage of the treatment area, recovery times are reduced while maintaining the benefits of skin resurfacing.



  • Does it hurt?

    Perception of pain varies greatly from one person to another. Ellipse Juvia offers a wide range of treatment settings to accommodate many patients. If the proper settings for your skin cause discomfort, you could choose to use a local anesthetic.




  • What Can I expect after treatment?

    Typically you will find your skin is red for up to 4 to 10 days, after which time you can wear make-up and return to work. Over the following day or so, your skin will look slightly bronzed as the treated pigment comes up to the surface and flakes off.




  • How many treatments will I need?

    Often one treatment is enough, but this really depends on the level of sun-damage to your skin and your personal treatment goals. Your physician will be able to advise further
