Fractional CO2 laser is a popular and highly effective treatment for improving skin texture, reducing wrinkles, and treating scars (including acne scars), pigmentation issues, and other skin concerns. It’s a type of laser skin resurfacing that focuses on delivering energy in a "fractional" pattern, meaning the laser targets a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving surrounding tissue intact. This approach allows for quicker healing and reduced downtime compared to traditional full-surface laser treatments.

Chemical peels are particularly effective for superficial scars and hyperpigmentation.Downtime: Depending on the strength of the peel, there can be some redness or peeling for a few days.

Dermabrasion is a cosmetic procedure that involves the controlled removal of the outer layers of skin to improve the appearance of scars, uneven skin texture, and various skin imperfections. It is a more intensive exfoliating technique compared to microdermabrasion, which is often used for milder concerns. Dermabrasion is particularly effective for deeper acne scars, fine lines, and certain types of skin damage.
