Understanding CO2 Laser Resurfacing: Non-Surgical Skin Renewal

At our Chicago and Bourbonnais clinics, CO2 laser resurfacing offers an advanced way to restore healthier, more youthful-looking skin. This treatment works by removing damaged outer layers while stimulating collagen production deeper within the skin, leading to a smoother texture and improved tone.

Types of CO2 Laser Resurfacing

At Pinski Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery, our CO2 laser resurfacing treatments are designed to smooth, brighten, and restore skin for a refreshed appearance. With advanced laser technology, we customize each session to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and sun damage while supporting long-term skin health.

CO2 Laser Resurfacing

Ideal for full facial rejuvenation or spot treatments, this approach removes the outer layer of skin to reveal newer, healthier tissue beneath. While downtime can be longer than with lighter options, the results are more dramatic and longer-lasting.

Dermal Optical Thermolysis (DOT)

DOT fractional CO2 laser creates microscopic treatment zones that stimulate collagen and elastin production. This option helps smooth texture, minimize wrinkles, and brighten skin with less recovery time than traditional CO2 resurfacing.

Cutera®

Cutera® combines the power of CO2 laser energy with RF microneedling, offering a dual-action treatment that targets deeper skin concerns. This advanced method is effective for improving scars, lines, and uneven tone while accelerating collagen renewal.

Other Laser Resurfacing Options

We also provide a range of resurfacing techniques tailored to your skin type and goals. Whether you’re looking for faster recovery or more intensive results, our team will design a personalized treatment plan to deliver smoother, healthier-looking skin.

How CO2 Laser Resurfacing Works at Pinski Dermatology

Your CO2 laser resurfacing experience is designed to be thorough, comfortable, and effective. Before your treatment, our team will meet with you to review your goals, assess your skin concerns, and create a customized treatment plan. You’ll also receive pre-care instructions to help ensure the best possible results.

During the procedure, your skin will be carefully cleansed and numbed with a topical anesthetic to maximize comfort. Precision laser energy is then applied to targeted areas, resurfacing the skin and stimulating natural collagen production. Most sessions take between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and location of the treatment area.

After your treatment, it’s normal to experience redness, mild swelling, and some crusting for a few days, with steady improvement over the following weeks. Sun protection and gentle aftercare are especially important during this time, and most patients can return to daily routines within a week.

Over the longer term, your skin will continue to heal and renew itself. As it does, you’ll notice smoother texture, reduced wrinkles, and a more even skin tone. This gradual improvement leads to healthier, more radiant skin with lasting results.
