Ablative laser treatments with the Ultrapulse CO2 laser can treat a wide range of conditions, including hypertrophic and surgical burn scars and the appearance of aging skin. It can also be used to improve skin texture and tone.
This treatment removes the outer layer of skin, thereby promoting a predictable pattern of wound healing, leading to an increased deposition of collagen and elastin. This improves fine lines and wrinkles and the appearance of aging skin.
Ablative laser treatments, like those using the Ultrapulse CO2 laser, are a type of skin resurfacing procedure. They work by removing the outer layer of skin (epidermis) and heating the underlying layer (dermis). This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which are proteins that give skin its structure and elasticity. Increased collagen and elastin production can:
The Ultrapulse CO2 laser is a specific type of ablative laser known for its precision and effectiveness.
