Fractional CO2 Laser (Say Goodbye To Acne Scars)

· Those in Tokyo who want to reduce acne scars.
· Those with fine lines and wrinkles.
· Those who want to diminish the appearance of scars.
· Those who wish to tighten enlarged pores.
· Those who wish to improve overall skin tone and texture.

Fractional CO2 Laser is a cutting-edge, non-surgical skin resurfacing treatment that targets a wide range of skin concerns, including acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, and uneven skin texture. By delivering precise, fractionated laser energy into the deeper layers of the skin, this treatment creates controlled micro-injuries that trigger the body’s natural healing process.

As new collagen and elastin form, the skin gradually becomes smoother, firmer, and more refined. With minimal downtime and highly customizable settings, Fractional CO2 Laser offers a powerful solution for those seeking visible, lasting results as the treatment promotes long-term rejuvenation by improving skin texture, reducing the appearance of scars, and enhancing overall tone and elasticity.

Fractional CO2 Laser utilizes a laser device with a Pentagon Ground design, which differentiates it from traditional fractional lasers. The Pentagon Ground design offers a unique pattern of laser pulses that optimally target both superficial and deeper layers of the skin, ensuring more efficient treatment compared to conventional fractional CO2 systems.

During the procedure, the device emits focused, high-energy laser pulses that penetrate the skin, vaporizing damaged cells while stimulating collagen production. The fractional method ensures that only a portion of the skin is treated at any given time, allowing quicker healing process and minimizing downtime. The Pentagon Ground pattern enhances the overall treatment coverage, ensuring uniform results and better precision in targeting specific skin concerns.

1. Consultation and skin examination will be conducted.
2. The treatment area will be thoroughly cleaned.
3. Local anesthesia will be applied to the treatment area.
4. Protective eyewear will be provided.
5. The device will be used on the targeted areas.
6. A soothing gel may be applied after the treatment.
7. Post-care instructions will be provided by the doctor.

The Fractional CO2 Laser with Pentagon Ground technology offers enhanced precision and deeper skin penetration compared to traditional fractional lasers. The Pentagon Ground design ensures better energy distribution, allowing for underwater penetration of 20μm per pulse, versus just 1μm in common fractional lasers. The penetration depth per pulse is 50-80μm, compared to 5-50μm with traditional systems, targeting both surface and deeper layers of the skin.

Additionally, the damage extent to the dermis layer is 75-150μm, while standard fractional lasers typically affect 10-30μm. This deeper and more controlled treatment stimulates collagen production more effectively, leading to smoother, firmer skin with minimal downtime.

Q3: When can I start wearing makeup?
A3: It is recommended to avoid wearing any makeup products for at least a week after the treatment. However, you may use moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated.

Q4: How many sessions do I have to go for Fractional CO2 Laser treatment?
A4: For optimal results, it is recommended to undergo at least 4 treatments, with about 3 weeks gap between each session. The number of the sessions may vary based on your skin condition.

Q5: Does Fractional CO2 laser really work?
A5: Yes, this treatment device is highly effective in treating a variety of skin concerns, especially acne scars, fine lines, and uneven skin texture. The results may vary by individual, but most patients see significant improvement after a few sessions.
