Laser Skin Resurfacing (Fotona & CO2)

Ablative and fractional laser resurfacing using the clinic's Fotona Erb:YAG and CO2 systems to improve texture, fine lines, scarring, pigmentation and tone. Treatment can be focused on the whole face, the eye area, the neck and décolletage, or the hands, and a gentler CO2 peel is available for less downtime. Platelet-rich plasma can be added to support recovery. A short course often gives the best result.

Laser skin resurfacing delivers controlled laser energy into the skin to remove or heat its outer layers in a precise, measured way, prompting a collagen-remodelling response associated with smoother texture, softer fine lines, fading of scarring and more even tone. At Beata Pawelec Medycyna Estetyczna two systems are used: a Fotona Erb:YAG laser, well regarded for gentle yet effective resurfacing, and a CO2 fractional laser that treats the skin in microscopic columns for deeper remodelling with faster recovery than fully ablative treatment. The skin is cleansed and numbed before treatment, which takes around thirty to forty-five minutes for the face. Afterwards the skin feels warm and looks flushed, with mild swelling and a sandpaper-like texture for a few days as it renews; diligent moisturising and sun protection support healing and most people return to normal activities quickly. The clinic offers a lighter CO2 peel for those who want a milder treatment and less downtime, and a fuller fractional protocol for texture and scarring. Treatment can be tailored to the whole face, the delicate eye area, the neck and décolletage, or the backs of the hands, and platelet-rich plasma can be layered on to support recovery and results. Because collagen remodelling is gradual, a course of several sessions spaced a few weeks apart often gives the best outcome, with improvements continuing for months. Strict daily SPF is essential during and after a course; the treatment is avoided over active infection and in pregnancy, and the physician confirms the right settings for your skin at consultation.
