CO2 Fractional LASER

Transform your skin with CO2 Fractional LASER at SkinSense Private GP Chelmsford. This advanced skin resurfacing treatment smooths wrinkles, reduces acne scars, and evens pigmentation while stimulating natural collagen production for firmer, rejuvenated skin.

Procedure

The CO₂ Fractional Laser treatment is a highly effective method for improving skin texture, reducing wrinkles, acne scars, and pigmentation. The laser creates thousands of tiny micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating intense collagen production and natural skin renewal while leaving surrounding tissues intact to aid rapid healing. Our Specialist Doctors will apply topical anaesthetic cream beforehand to ensure your comfort. The session typically takes 30–60 minutes depending on the treatment area. Some redness, swelling, and peeling are normal during recovery, and noticeable improvement develops over several weeks as the skin remodels.

What to Expect at the Clinic:

  • Complete a Medical History form, including details of previous skin treatments.
  • Consultation with Our Specialist Doctors to assess skin concerns and suitability.
  • Application of topical anaesthetic for 30–45 minutes prior to the procedure.
  • CO₂ laser applied precisely to targeted areas.
  • Aftercare instructions provided for optimal healing (sun protection is critical).
  • Follow-up review scheduled to monitor results.

The cost of the treatment is determined by each patient’s individual needs and the personalised approach required for their treatment.
