CO2 Fractional Laser Resurfacing

Fractional CO2 laser technology divides a full CO2 beam into a grid of microscopic ablative columns — each column vaporises a precise cylinder of skin from epidermis through superficial dermis, creating a controlled wound. The surrounding tissue between columns remains undamaged and serves as a reservoir of viable cells that accelerate re-epithelialisation. The clinical benefit of this 'fractional' approach is that ablative depths and intensities…

At BODY klinika, the CO2 fractional laser is used to treat a broad range of skin conditions. For scarring — acne scars, keloid scars, post-traumatic or surgical scars — the ablation physically removes fibrotic tissue while the dermal heating stimulates new collagen remodelling, gradually smoothing the scar surface and reducing its contrast with surrounding skin. For enlarged pores and oily skin, the treatment tightens the pore opening and normalises…

Skin growths — warts, seborrhoeic keratoses, and benign moles — can be precisely ablated and removed with the focused beam. Pigmentation irregularities, including solar lentigines and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, respond well to the combination of surface ablation and thermal disruption of melanin-containing cells.
