Fractioned CO2 Laser
Fractioned CO2 Laser Treatment by Dr. Andre Azar
Rejuvenate Your Skin with Precision and Minimal Downtime at Facial Surgical Center
Your skin deserves the highest level of care, especially when it comes to treating signs of aging, acne scars, sun damage, and stretch marks. At Facial Surgical Center, led by renowned facial plastic surgeon Dr. Andre Azar, we offer Fractioned CO2 Laser treatment—an advanced skin resurfacing procedure that rejuvenates your skin by promoting collagen production while minimizing healing time.
Whether you’re battling stubborn acne scars, fine lines, uneven texture, or stretch marks, CO2 Laser Therapy provides a powerful yet gentle solution tailored to your skin’s needs.
What is Fractioned CO2 Laser?
Fractioned CO2 Laser is a state-of-the-art, minimally invasive laser skin resurfacing treatment that works by creating thousands of microscopic thermal columns within the skin. These columns penetrate deeply while leaving the surrounding tissue intact, which stimulates the body’s natural healing process and boosts collagen production.
Unlike traditional ablative lasers that remove entire layers of skin, Fractioned CO2 Laser targets only a “fraction” of the skin at a time, allowing for quicker recovery and fewer side effects. This makes it one of the most effective treatments for individuals looking to improve skin tone, texture, and elasticity without undergoing extensive downtime.
Benefits of Fractioned CO2 Laser
Patients who choose Fractioned CO2 Laser treatment at Facial Surgical Center under the expert care of Dr. Andre Azar can expect a variety of cosmetic and medical benefits, including:
Smoother skin texture
Reduction in acne scars and surgical scars
Diminished fine lines and wrinkles
Improved skin tone and pigmentation
Minimized pores
Treatment for sun damage and age spots
Tightened, more youthful-looking skin
Stretch mark reduction
How Does Fractioned CO2 Laser Work?
During the procedure, the Fractioned CO2 Laser device emits concentrated beams of light that create microscopic holes (thermal columns) in the skin. These tiny wounds stimulate a controlled healing process, prompting the production of new collagen and elastin—two essential components for youthful, firm skin.
The laser penetrates deeply into the dermis, targeting damaged skin cells while leaving surrounding tissue untouched. This fractional approach ensures that healing occurs more rapidly than with traditional resurfacing techniques.

Fractional CO2 Laser for Acne Scars
One of the most common applications of Fractioned CO2 Laser is in the treatment of acne scars. Whether you’re dealing with pitted scars, rolling scars, or textural irregularities, Fractional CO2 Laser for acne scars offers a significant improvement in skin smoothness and tone.
By reaching the deeper layers of skin where acne scars form, the laser triggers collagen remodeling, leading to a gradual reduction in scar visibility over a series of treatments. Most patients report a noticeable improvement in texture and skin clarity within a few sessions.
Dr. Azar customizes the treatment intensity based on the depth and severity of your scars, ensuring optimal results with minimal discomfort and downtime.
CO2 Laser for Stretch Marks
Stretch marks can be frustrating, especially when they appear on visible parts of the body like the abdomen, thighs, or arms. CO2 Laser for stretch marks is an innovative approach that reduces the appearance of these marks by stimulating dermal regeneration.
Using Fractioned CO2 Laser, Dr. Azar targets the affected areas, encouraging the growth of fresh, healthy skin and enhancing elasticity. Over time, treated stretch marks fade in color and become less noticeable, restoring a smoother, more even skin tone.
This therapy is especially popular among post-pregnancy patients and individuals who’ve experienced rapid weight fluctuations.
What to Expect During the Procedure
At Facial Surgical Center, every step of your Fractioned CO2 Laser treatment is handled with precision and care:
Consultation:
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation with Dr. Azar. He’ll assess your skin condition, discuss your goals, and determine the best treatment plan tailored to your needs.Preparation:
On the day of your session, a topical anesthetic will be applied to minimize discomfort. Dr. Azar may also use a cooling device during the procedure to enhance comfort.Treatment:
The Fractioned CO2 Laser is gently passed over the target area. You may feel a warm sensation as the laser creates microscopic zones in the skin.Post-Treatment Care:
A soothing cream will be applied, and detailed aftercare instructions will be provided to promote healing and minimize irritation.
The entire procedure typically takes 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the size and location of the treatment area.
Fractional CO2 Laser Recovery Time
One of the key advantages of Fractioned CO2 Laser is its relatively short recovery period compared to traditional laser resurfacing. Most patients experience redness, mild swelling, and a sunburn-like sensation for the first few days.
Fractional CO2 Laser recovery time generally follows this timeline:
Days 1–3: Redness and mild swelling. Skin may feel tight or warm.
Days 3–5: Peeling and flaking begin as the outer layer of treated skin sheds.
Days 5–7: Significant improvement in texture and clarity. Makeup may be applied.
Week 2 and beyond: Skin continues to improve in tone, smoothness, and firmness.
Most people return to regular activities within one week. Dr. Azar will guide you on how to care for your skin post-treatment, including sun protection, gentle cleansing, and hydration.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
While some patients see a remarkable difference after just one session, others may benefit from a series of treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Factors influencing the number of sessions include:
Severity of skin concerns
Desired outcomes
Skin type and tone
Overall skin health
Dr. Azar will create a personalized treatment schedule that ensures your skin rejuvenation journey is safe and effective.
Is Fractioned CO2 Laser Right for You?
Fractioned CO2 Laser is ideal for men and women looking to improve the appearance of:
Acne scars
Fine lines and wrinkles
Stretch marks
Hyperpigmentation and sun damage
Enlarged pores
Uneven skin texture
It’s especially effective for individuals who prefer a non-surgical solution with visible, long-term results. However, it may not be recommended for people with certain skin conditions, very dark skin tones, or active infections.
A comprehensive consultation with Dr. Andre Azar will help determine whether you’re a good candidate for this treatment.
