- CO2 Laser Technology in Cosmetic Procedures
Carbon dioxide (CO2) lasers are a popular choice for cosmetic procedures due to their ability to target specific skin issues with precision and effectiveness. CO2 lasers work by delivering concentrated beams of light that are absorbed by water in the skin, causing controlled thermal damage to stimulate collagen production and rejuvenate the skin. Here is an overview of CO2 laser technology and its applications in cosmetic procedures:
Overview of CO2 Laser Technology:
- CO2 lasers operate by emitting a high-powered infrared laser beam with a wavelength of 10.6 micrometers, which is well-absorbed by water in the skin.
- These lasers use a mixture of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and helium gases to generate the laser beam, which is amplified and focused through mirrors in the laser cavity.
- CO2 lasers can be delivered in either ablative or fractional modes, depending on the treatment goals and desired outcomes.
