The Tetra CO2 Laser is an advanced skin resurfacing treatment that addresses various skin concerns. This laser treatment uses a specialized carbon dioxide laser to remove layers of skin tissue in a fractionated method, which means it targets only a fraction of the skin at a time. This technique helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and uneven skin tone while promoting the rejuvenation of new skin cells. The Tetra CO2 Laser can treat multiple areas, including the face, neck, and hands, making it a versatile option for skin resurfacing.
The treatment is ideal for individuals looking to improve the texture and appearance of their skin who do not respond well to milder treatments. Results from the Tetra CO2 Laser can be seen after the skin heals, typically within a few weeks, and the improvement can continue for up to six months as the skin produces more collagen. The results are long-lasting, though they can vary based on the individual’s skin condition and age. Depending on the individual’s skin response, a follow-up session might be necessary to maintain the best results. If you are considering skin resurfacing, schedule an appointment for the Tetra CO2 Laser in Kaua’i MedSpa and see the rejuvenating results.
