CO2 LASER TREATMENTS FROM £250

WHAT IS FRACTIONAL CO2 LASER?

Fractional CO2 laser is an ablative skin-resurfacing treatment that uses controlled laser energy to create microscopic treatment zones within the skin.

These tiny treatment zones trigger the skin’s natural repair response and stimulate collagen remodelling.

Unlike many superficial skin treatments, fractional CO2 laser can address changes in both the skin’s surface and its underlying structure.

The treatment can help improve:

✓ Fine lines and wrinkles
✓ Acne scarring
✓ Uneven skin texture
✓ Sun-damaged skin
✓ Enlarged-looking pores
✓ Certain types of pigmentation
✓ Crepey-looking skin
✓ Selected surgical or traumatic scars

Results depend on skin type, treatment depth, the condition being treated and individual healing.

CO2 LASER FOR WRINKLES & SKIN TIGHTENING

Are fine lines becoming deeper? Is your skin starting to lose its firmness?

As we age, collagen production decreases and skin becomes less elastic.

This can contribute to:

• Fine lines around the eyes
• Wrinkles around the mouth
• Forehead lines
• Crepey skin
• Uneven skin texture
• Reduced skin firmness

Fractional CO2 laser stimulates collagen remodelling and improves the skin’s surface.

Over time, suitable clients may notice smoother-looking skin, softer wrinkles and improved firmness.

The aim isn’t to change your face. It’s to improve the quality of your skin.

CO2 LASER FOR ACNE SCARS — MANCHESTER

Acne scarring can remain long after active acne has cleared.

Indented scars, uneven texture and changes in skin structure can be difficult to improve with skincare products alone.

Fractional CO2 laser is an established treatment option for selected types of atrophic acne scarring.

By creating controlled microscopic injuries, the laser encourages skin repair and collagen remodelling.

Potential improvements include:

✓ Smoother-looking skin texture
✓ Reduced appearance of certain acne scars
✓ Improved skin surface irregularities
✓ Softer transitions between scarred and surrounding skin

Several sessions may be required, and deeper or tethered scars may benefit from additional treatments.

A consultation is essential to assess your scar type and suitability.

CO2 LASER FOR UNDER-EYE WRINKLES & CREPEY SKIN

Fine lines and crepey skin around your eyes?

The delicate skin surrounding the eyes is often one of the first areas to show visible signs of ageing.

Fractional CO2 laser may help improve:

• Fine lines around the eyes
• Crow’s feet
• Crepey skin texture
• Selected lower-eyelid wrinkles
• Mild skin laxity

Treatment around the eyes requires specialist training, appropriate settings and suitable ocular protection.

Not every client is suitable, and the degree of tightening varies.

CO2 LASER FOR NECK WRINKLES & CREPEY SKIN

The neck is another area where changes in collagen and skin elasticity can become noticeable.

Fractional CO2 laser may improve the appearance of fine lines, sun damage and crepey skin on the neck.

Because neck skin can heal differently from facial skin, treatment depth and suitability must be carefully assessed.

CO2 LASER FOR STOMACH SKIN & SCARS

Concerned about crepey skin, uneven texture or scars on your stomach?

Fractional CO2 laser can be considered for selected body concerns, including:

✓ Certain surgical scars
✓ Stretch marks
✓ Uneven skin texture
✓ Crepey-looking abdominal skin

CO2 laser does not remove substantial excess skin or replace surgical skin tightening.

Improvements vary, and multiple treatments may be needed.

LIGHT, MEDIUM & DEEP CO2 LASER TREATMENTS

At Claire Quigley Advanced Aesthetics, treatment intensity is personalised according to your skin type, concerns and recovery requirements.

LIGHT CO2 LASER — Skin Refresh

A lighter treatment may be suitable for selected clients looking to improve superficial texture and early signs of ageing.

Potential benefits include:

• Improved skin smoothness
• Fresher-looking skin
• Reduced appearance of fine lines
• Gradual collagen stimulation

Recovery: Redness and sensitivity may last several days. Some clients experience relatively limited downtime, but next-day recovery cannot be guaranteed.

MEDIUM CO2 LASER — Skin Rejuvenation

A more intensive treatment may be appropriate for clients with more noticeable wrinkles, textural irregularities or selected scarring.

Potential benefits include:

• Improvement in fine lines
• Smoother-looking skin
• Reduced appearance of certain scars
• More noticeable resurfacing effects

Recovery: Redness, swelling, peeling and crusting may persist for approximately 5–10 days or longer.

DEEPER CO2 LASER — Intensive Resurfacing

More intensive resurfacing may be considered for selected clients with deeper wrinkles or more significant textural concerns.

Potential benefits include:

• Improvement in selected deeper wrinkles
• Reduction in certain types of scarring
• More substantial skin resurfacing
• Collagen remodelling

Recovery: Healing commonly requires at least 1–2 weeks, sometimes longer. Persistent redness may continue for weeks or months.

Deeper treatment is not necessarily better. Increased treatment intensity can also increase the risk of complications.

Your treatment will be selected according to clinical suitability rather than simply choosing the strongest setting.

HOW MANY CO2 LASER SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

The number of treatments depends on your skin condition, the intensity used and your desired outcome.

Some clients may benefit from a single session, while others require a course.

For certain concerns, a course of approximately three sessions may be recommended.

Treatment intervals are determined by skin healing and clinical assessment. More intensive treatments may require substantially longer recovery between sessions.

WHEN WILL I SEE CO2 LASER RESULTS?

First 1–2 weeks

The skin begins healing, although redness and sensitivity may remain.

4–8 weeks

Improvements in texture may become more apparent as the skin recovers.

3–6 months

Collagen remodelling continues, and further improvements may develop.

Results vary, and no treatment can guarantee complete wrinkle or scar removal.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is CO2 laser better than microneedling?

Fractional CO2 laser generally provides more intensive resurfacing than conventional microneedling, but it also involves greater downtime and different risks. The best option depends on your skin concern and suitability.

Does CO2 laser tighten loose skin?

Fractional CO2 laser can improve the appearance of mild skin laxity through collagen remodelling. It cannot remove substantial excess skin or replicate a surgical lift.

Can CO2 laser remove deep wrinkles?

CO2 laser may reduce the appearance of wrinkles, but complete removal cannot be guaranteed.

Can CO2 laser remove acne scars permanently?

Improvements in scar texture can be long-lasting, but complete scar removal is unlikely. Multiple treatments or combination approaches may be required.

Can CO2 laser treat melasma?

CO2 laser is not generally a first-line treatment for melasma and may worsen pigmentation in some clients. A specialist assessment is essential before considering any laser treatment.

How long is the downtime?

Recovery varies with treatment depth, area and individual healing. Lighter treatments may involve several days of redness, while deeper resurfacing can require weeks of recovery.

Is CO2 laser suitable for darker skin?

Darker skin types have a greater risk of pigmentary complications following ablative laser treatment. Suitability requires careful assessment, and alternative treatments may be safer.
