Powerful Laser Skin Resurfacing

CO2 laser skin resurfacing is one of the best non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures available. During treatment, the laser precisely removes thin layers of skin and encourages your body to form new skin cells. Once the treatment area has healed, the fresh skin will be clearer, smoother, tighter, and more radiant.

What Can CO2 Laser Resurfacing Do For You?

At Elite Aesthetics, we use CO2 lasers in Flatiron to correct a variety of skin issues, including:

Fine Lines and Wrinkles

Laser skin resurfacing can effectively improve crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, laugh lines, and more.

Sun Damage

CO2 laser skin resurfacing is one of the most effective ways to correct visible signs of sun damage, including texture issues, liver spots, sun spots, and more.

Acne Scars

Acne scars are notoriously difficult to treat. CO2 laser skin resurfacing offers a potent and highly effective solution.

Sagging Skin

Unlike other non-surgical treatments, CO2 laser resurfacing is capable of tightening and firming skin and improving laxity.

Your CO2 Laser Appointment

Your CO2 laser treatment will take place in a private and luxurious treatment room at our Upper East Side medical spa. It’s an outpatient procedure that takes between 30 minutes and 2 hours.

To begin, one of our providers will apply an anesthetic to maintain your comfort. We will then move the laser wand over your skin to correct visible signs of aging, scars, sun damage, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions CO2 Laser

Is there any downtime after CO2 laser skin resurfacing?

Yes. In fact, the recovery period is a crucial part of your treatment. Your skin will feel raw for the first few days after your procedure. Over the next one to two weeks, the treated skin will start to peel away, leaving behind a fresh and undamaged complexion.
