What is the Helix CO2 Laser, and How Does It Work?

The Helix CO2 Laser is a fractional CO2 laser treatment that uses targeted energy to remove damaged layers of skin. By delivering energy beams in a controlled pattern, this treatment focuses on damaged areas while leaving surrounding tissue untouched. This approach minimizes recovery while stimulating the skin’s natural healing process, including increased collagen production. Collagen is a vital protein responsible for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness, and its stimulation leads to long-lasting improvements in skin health and appearance.

This advanced device also offers customizable treatment settings, allowing our team to address surface-level concerns like pigmentation or deeper issues like wrinkles and scars. The Helix CO2 Laser's versatility makes it an excellent choice for patients with various skin concerns.

The Helix CO2 Treatment Process

Your journey with the Helix CO2 Laser begins with an in-depth consultation to assess your skin and determine the best approach. At the start of your treatment, a topical anesthetic will be applied to ensure comfort. The laser will then target the treatment areas, removing damaged skin and stimulating renewal. Depending on your individualized treatment plan, the session can last between 30 and 60 minutes. After the procedure, patients may experience redness and swelling similar to a sunburn, which typically resolves within a few days. Most of our patients are able to return to their daily activities immediately.

CO2 Laser Resurfacing is ideal for individuals looking to improve skin imperfections and restore their complexion. The best candidates are:

Healthy adults with no underlying skin conditions
Non-smokers or those willing to quit before treatment
Patients with mild to moderate skin laxity
Those free of active infections or lesions in the treatment area
Individuals with realistic expectations about results
