The C02 Fractional laser is an effective treatment for a variety of skin conditions. Pigmented skin is one of those conditions and a fairly common issue many California have due to excessive sun exposure. The C02 laser is great for resurfacing the skin and rejuvenating new skin. This is a more intensive procedure as it requires 2-3 weeks of downtown. The laser provides a controlled burn burning off a thin layer of skin. As the skin heals patients will see a decrease in pigmentation. The settings on the laser can be adjusted to a lighter setting to ensure that you’re first treatment is not too invasive.  In order to achieve the best results, it’s highly recommended that you seek multiple treatments. Treatments typically span between 8-12 weeks as it takes some time for the skin to heal between each session.
