Fractional CO2 Laser Skin Treatment – Rejuvenate Your Skin at Forever Medspa & Wellness Center

Reveal Radiant Skin with Fractional CO2 Laser Technology

At Forever Medspa & Wellness Center, we offer Fractional CO2 Laser Skin Treatment, a powerful solution for achieving younger, smoother, and healthier skin. This advanced treatment reduces wrinkles, repairs sun damage, and improves overall skin texture by stimulating natural collagen production.

While this laser treatment provides remarkable results, it is recommended for Fitzpatrick skin types 1 to 3 to ensure safe and effective outcomes.

What is the Fitzpatrick Skin Type Scale?

The Fitzpatrick scale classifies skin types based on how they react to UV exposure and treatments. This helps predict the likelihood of pigmentation changes after laser treatments. The scale ranges from Type 1 to 6, with Types 1 to 3 being ideal for Fractional CO2 Laser due to their lower risk of hyperpigmentation.

Fitzpatrick Skin Types Overview:

• Type 1: Very fair skin, always burns, never tans
• Type 2: Fair skin, usually burns, tans minimally
• Type 3: Medium skin tone, sometimes burns, tans gradually
• Type 4-6: Darker skin tones; higher risk of pigmentation changes

If you have Fitzpatrick Types 4 to 6, we offer alternative resurfacing treatments better suited to your skin tone.

What is Fractional CO2 Laser Skin Treatment?

Fractional CO2 Laser uses fractionated laser beams to create micro-channels in the skin, stimulating the body’s healing response and promoting collagen regeneration. It treats both surface-level and deeper layers of the skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation.

What Can Fractional CO2 Laser Treat?

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Acne and surgical scars
• Sun damage and age spots
• Melasma and hyperpigmentation (for lighter skin tones)
• Uneven texture and enlarged pores
• Stretch marks

What to Expect During Your Treatment

At Forever Medspa & Wellness Center, we tailor your experience to ensure optimal results and safety.

1. Initial Consultation

During your consultation, we evaluate your Fitzpatrick skin type and skin concerns to develop a customized treatment plan. This ensures the laser settings are optimized to achieve the best results safely.

2. Treatment Session

A typical session takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Here’s what to expect:

• Topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort.
• The laser creates micro-channels to stimulate collagen and promote skin renewal.
• You may feel a mild warmth or tingling during the treatment.

3. Post-Treatment Recovery

• Downtime ranges from 1 to 3 weeks, depending on the treatment strength.
• You may experience redness, swelling, and peeling as your skin heals.
• We provide aftercare instructions to support your recovery, including moisturizing and sun protection.

Stronger Treatments and Maintenance Plan

For stronger treatments, which provide deeper skin resurfacing and more dramatic results, recovery may take longer, and we recommend longer intervals between sessions:

• Stronger treatments: Spaced 2-6 months apart for optimal healing and collagen renewal.
• Initial course: 2-3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance.
• Maintenance treatments: Once or twice annually to maintain your results over time.

This personalized approach ensures the best long-term outcome with minimal risk of side effects.

How Soon Will I See Results?

• Initial improvements appear within a few weeks of the first session.
• Full results develop over 3-6 months as collagen production increases.
• Stronger treatments offer more significant improvement but may take longer to fully reveal results.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for Fractional CO2 Laser?

• Individuals with Fitzpatrick skin types 1 to 3 seeking skin rejuvenation
• Those looking to reduce wrinkles, scars, or pigmentation
• Clients who can commit to 1-3 weeks of downtime
• Anyone ready for long-term maintenance treatments to sustain results

For individuals with darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick Types 4-6), we offer alternative solutions better suited for your skin type.
