What is Fractional CO₂ Laser?
Fractional CO₂ laser treats small, separate areas of skin using controlled ablation and heat. Untreated skin between these zones supports healing. Treatment depth and density are selected according to the area, skin type and desired improvement in texture.
What does Fractional CO₂ Laser entail?
After cleansing, suitable anaesthesia and eye protection, the agreed areas are treated systematically. Wound care and follow-up are then tailored to the treatment intensity and region.
Applications of Fractional CO₂ Laser
At DIVINE Medica in Munich, suitable concerns may include wrinkles, acne scars, other scars and selected skin-tightening goals. Sensitive areas, particularly the eyelids, require separate assessment and adapted protection.
Safety of Fractional CO₂ Laser
Redness, swelling, oozing and fine crusting may occur during healing. Infection, herpes reactivation, persistent pigment changes and scarring are separate potential complications. Skin type, eye protection and tailored aftercare are central to safety planning.
Before and Aftercare
Please discuss previous laser treatments, medications, herpes and your wound-healing history. Do not change prescribed medication without medical advice. Avoid recent tanning and discuss your current use of skincare products with active ingredients beforehand.
Wound care and sun protection follow your personal plan. Leave crusts and flaking skin alone; use make-up and skincare with active ingredients only after medical clearance. Increasing pain, blistering or fever should be reported promptly.
The initial healing phase often lasts around 1–3 weeks, although redness may remain longer. Changes in skin structure are then assessed over around 3–6 months. Further treatments depend on your progress.
Personal consultation
Your personal CO₂ consultation determines which skin concern is being treated and what intensity is appropriate. Your skin type and the time needed for recovery guide the plan. A 30-minute consultation costs €75.
