Fractional CO2 Laser for Acne Scars and Skin Resurfacing

Fractional CO2 laser is one of the most effective methods for improving acne scars and skin texture. However, correct indication, parameter selection and patient evaluation are essential for safe and natural results.

What Is Fractional CO2 Laser?

Fractional CO2 laser is a resurfacing treatment that creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen production and skin renewal. This process helps improve skin texture, acne scars, pores and certain fine lines.

Unlike superficial treatments, fractional CO2 laser works on deeper skin layers, which is why it is commonly preferred for more significant skin concerns such as atrophic acne scars.

Fractional CO2 laser is a powerful treatment, but it is not suitable for every patient. Skin type, active acne, pigmentation tendency and downtime expectations must be carefully evaluated before treatment.

In some cases, combining CO2 laser with RF microneedling, PRP or mesotherapy may improve overall results.
