Advanced Skin + Body Aesthetics offers a new fractional CO-2 Acupulse laser by Lumenis. This laser treatment is the new gold standard for skin tightening and resurfacing, producing dramatic results in a single session. It combines 3 lasers in one device for improved efficiency. Collagen consists of nutrients that keep the skin looking and feeling its best. Over the years due to lack of collagen, we start to notice visible skin imperfections that cannot organically repair themselves, such as dark spots and deep wrinkles. The sudden triggering of collagen-producing cells by the CO-2 laser makes for tight, youthful skin.
The AcuPulse can treat the following problems:
- skin damage
- uneven texture
- deep wrinkles
- sun spots
- pigmentation irregularities
- acne scars
- warts
What to expect:
You may be prescribed prescription medications to use prior to your treatment to prevent infection and hyperpigmentation depending on your skin type. When you arrive for your procedure a topical numbing cream will be applied to the treatment area to minimize any discomfort. During the treatment, most patients experience a moderate heat sensation as the applicator is passed over the surface of the skin. Cool air is also applied during the procedure for comfort. The full treatment generally can be expected to last around 60 minutes. Immediately following treatment, your skin will be warm and may be red and swollen, depending on your customized treatment settings. Patients will be sent home with a topical moisturizer to be worn for 3-5 days and nothing else. Most patients are able to resume their daily activities within one week. While your skin is recovering from the treatment, it is best to avoid exposing the treated area to direct sunlight or any other irritants which could interfere with skin regeneration.
Resurfacing Fractional Co2 Laser Before and After
Have a Question About Co2 Laser Fractional Resurfacing in Lincoln NE?
How many Laser Fractional Resurfacing sessions are needed to achieve maximum results?
The number of sessions needed for AcuPulse Skin Resurfacing to achieve maximum results can vary depending on the individual’s skin condition and the specific concerns being addressed. Generally, significant improvements can be seen with just one session, especially for moderate skin issues. However, for more severe conditions like deep wrinkles or extensive sun damage, multiple sessions may be necessary. Each session can further enhance the skin’s appearance, with cumulative results leading to a more dramatic overall improvement. During the initial consultation, your skincare professional will assess your skin and discuss a tailored treatment plan that specifies the number of sessions needed to meet your aesthetic goals.
How long after Laser Fractional Resurfacing do you have to stay out of sun exposure after a session?
After undergoing an AcuPulse Skin Resurfacing treatment, it’s crucial to minimize sun exposure for at least 4 to 6 weeks. This precaution is important because the skin is particularly sensitive and vulnerable to damage as it heals and regenerates new tissue. Sun exposure during this period can lead to complications such as hyperpigmentation, prolonged redness, and other unwanted side effects. To protect your skin, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher daily, wear protective clothing, and avoid peak sunlight hours. Following these guidelines will help ensure the best possible results from your treatment and prevent damage to the newly sensitized skin layers.
Can you resume wearing make up after Laser Fractional Resurfacing?
During the first few days post-treatment, it’s crucial to keep the skin clean and protected to avoid infection and support the healing process. Once your skin has sufficiently recovered and with the approval of your healthcare provider, you can begin to use makeup again, ideally starting with mineral-based products that are less likely to irritate sensitive skin.
