Fractinal CO₂ Laser

Fractinal CO₂ Laser

3333

With fractional laser systems, small micro wounds are created in the tissue. Between these micro wounds, the skin remains untouched. Thus, depending on the indication, only part of the skin surface is injured. Depending on the localization and the desired result, the penetration depth and the energy level of the laser are adjusted. A treatment lasts between 30 and 60 minutes. If desired, an anesthetic cream can be applied beforehand.
