Aged skin, wrinkles, uneven skin shades, various spots, acne scars and other problems caused by skin surface formations can now be resolved thanks to new laser treatment.
Our clinic offers fractional skin resurfacing with the new fractional CO2RE laser from the US company Syneron – Candela, the world market leader in the production of medical laser equipment. It is the ideal way to restore and smooth the skin on the face, neck and chest, reduce wrinkles and surface blemishes, restore the beautiful, even skin tone, firm thin skin and correct all skin imperfections. With the new CO2Re laser, visible results are achieved already after the initial treatment.
Fraction laser CO2Re resurfaces the skin by fractions – millions of microscopic laser beams liquidates old skin tissues, without touching surrounding healthy cells. So the treatment area heals rapidly, and new, healthy skin cells emerge which form even and healthy skin.
CO2Re is a high technology laser. It can be used for up to seven treatments, including five for fractional skin resurfacing, so a wide range of skin problems can be solved.
The CO2Re is the first CO2 fractional laser that produces two waves and can precisely restore both the superficial and deep layers of the skin, or restore all skin layers simultaneously. The CO2Re laser comes with an intuitive touch-screen that displays the treatment geometry.
WHAT PROBLEMS DOES THE CO2RE FRACTION LASER SOLVE?
CO2Re fractional skin resurfacing laser is multifunctional and suitable for various skin problems – both simple and the most severe.
- CO2Re light – for treatment of small uneven skin areas, enlarged skin pores and wrinkles; fractional skin surface resurfacing is carried out by causing effect of laser peeling.
- CO2Re mid – for the correction of more pronounced skin effects. To make fraction laser impact more intense, rays are sent deeper into skin, thus stimulating additional synthesis of collagen and the resurfacing of damaged or aged tissues of the mid-layer. Deeper acne scars and hollows, deeper wrinkles around eyes, lips, on chins and forehead and other places are corrected.
- CO2Re deep – for ageing, sagging skin, pronounced wrinkles, acne, surgical, burn and other scars, as well as for stretch marks. Deep skin layers are restored, new and qualitative collagen is synthesized.
- CO2Re fusion – a unique methodology combining treatment intensity with especially deep skin resurfacing, so all skin is resurfaced – epidermis and deep skin layers.
WHAT IS THE EFFECT AFTER SKIN RESURFACING WITH THE FRACTION LASER CO2RE?
- Skin colour is evened, skin surface becomes smoother, skin is renewed;

Technical specifications of the fraction laser CO2Re allows the resolution of whatever skin problem you have.
WHEN SHOULD YOU CARRY OUT FRACTIONAL SKIN RESURFACING?
In order to resurface the skin, it is perfect to start from the age of 30 year or according to the amount of wrinkles, for example, around the eyes, on the cheeks or other areas, in the case of non-smooth skin color, pigmentation, scars, uneven skin surface, skin flexibility and other deficiencies. It is a great way to resurface skin and keep it young and even. Post treatment period is also very short.
INDICATIONS FOR FRACTIONAL LASER SKIN REJUVENATION:
• skin aging, photoaging;
• various types of wrinkles, including in eye area;
• laxity and ptosis in the face, neck and chest areas;
• scars, traces of post-acne, enlarged pores;
• stretch marks;
• dark spots on skin.
HOW IS FRACTIONAL SKIN RESURFACING TREATMENT CARRIED OUT?
Before treatment, local anaesthesia is applied on the skin. After 30-40 minutes, protective goggles are fitted on patient; an applicator is applied to the skin, the skin is scanned and the correct CO2Re fractional skin resurfacing parameters are prepared. A laser beam is focused and resurfacing treatment starts. The treatment lasts 30 minutes.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE NECESSARY?
The number of treatments depends on the skin problems. In order to carry out skin resurfacing, one to three treatments may be necessary, but, in order to even wrinkles and scars – three to five. Efficient results can be seen after the first CO2Re fractional skin resurfacing treatment, which often is also sufficient. Pigmentation spots disappear immediately after the treatment; correction of skin occurs as a result of the formation of new collagen stimulated by the laser; the skin gradually obtains a lighter and smoother appearance. During a free consultation before treatments, you will agree on the number of treatments with a physician.
The world-famous pop music queen also enjoyed CO2Re resurfacing treatment, so the treatment is named the Madonna Lift.
HOW WILL SKIN LOOK AFTER THE TREATMENT?
A few hours after the treatment, you will have a similar sensation to after sunbathing. Some after the treatment, your skin will start to regenerate and the top layer of skin will peel off, just like after an exfoliation. This is a natural skin resurfacing process that can take 7-10 days. Your doctor will explain how to care for your skin at home after the treatment. The skin will need to be moisturised and applied with a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30.
During your free consultation, our clinic doctor will review your skin concerns and desired results, and give detailed advice on how your skin should be cared for after the treatment.
FRACTIONAL CO2 LASER REJUVENATION OF THE SKIN COMBINED WITH PLASMA LIFT (PRP)
Another successful rejuvenation technique is successfully used in our clinic – a combination of fractional rejuvenation with plasma lift (PRP or Platelet Rich Plasma).
In such case, these procedures is carried out right after each other – after laser therapy, platelet-rich plasma made from the patient’s own blood is injected into the skin.
Plasma lift or PRP is the effective method of skin rejuvenation, which, combined with fractional laser skin rejuvenation further enhances the effect and reduces the rehabilitation period after the laser to 4-5 days.
