Smartskin™ CO2 Laser in Portland & Lake Oswego

The SmartSkin CO2 Laser is a cutting-edge skin resurfacing treatment designed to address a range of skin concerns, including wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. Using fractionated CO2 laser technology, SmartSkin precisely targets the skin’s surface and deeper layers to stimulate collagen production, revealing smoother, younger-looking skin. This laser treatment is highly effective and can be tailored to your skin type and goals.

How Does SmartSkin CO2 Laser Work?

SmartSkin CO2 Laser uses carbon dioxide (CO2) laser energy to create controlled micro-damage in the skin. The fractionated laser creates thousands of tiny perforations in the skin’s surface, which triggers the body’s natural healing process. As new skin cells form, collagen and elastin are rebuilt, giving you smoother, firmer skin with reduced imperfections.

Benefits of SmartSkin CO2 Laser Resurfacing:

  • Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Targets aging signs around the eyes, mouth, and forehead.
  • Treats Acne and Other Scars: Smooths out rough textures and minimizes the appearance of scars.
  • Improves Skin Tone and Texture: Helps diminish pigmentation issues, sun damage, and overall skin tone.
  • Boosts Collagen Production: Stimulates collagen, leading to long-term skin tightening and rejuvenation.
  • Customizable Treatment: The SmartSkin CO2 Laser allows for adjustable depth and intensity, making it suitable for various skin types and concerns.

What to Expect During Your SmartSkin CO2 Laser Treatment

  1. Consultation: Our skilled providers will assess your skin and discuss your goals to create a customized SmartSkin CO2 treatment plan.
  2. Preparation: A topical numbing cream is applied to maximize comfort. The treatment usually takes about 30-60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
  3. Laser Treatment: The SmartSkin CO2 Laser is precisely applied to target areas. You may feel a warm sensation as the laser works to resurface your skin.

Recovery and Results

  • Recovery: Patients typically experience redness, mild swelling, and peeling for about 5-7 days. This downtime can vary based on the treatment intensity.
  • Results: Initial results, such as smoother texture and reduced pigmentation, are visible once the skin heals. Full results, including improved elasticity and tone, continue to develop over the following weeks as collagen production increases.
