What is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?

CO2 laser resurfacing is one of the most powerful and clinically proven skin treatments available in medical aesthetics. It works by delivering concentrated laser energy into the skin to remove damaged outer layers while simultaneously stimulating deep collagen remodeling beneath the surface. The result is a dramatic improvement in skin texture, tone, and overall quality that continues to develop for months following treatment.

At Made, CO2 laser resurfacing is performed with the Cartessa Helix CO2, one of the most advanced fractional CO2 platforms available. It allows our providers to precisely control the depth and intensity of treatment, delivering meaningful results with a recovery profile that is manageable and well supported throughout.

At Made, CO2 laser resurfacing is performed exclusively with the Cartessa Helix, one of the most advanced and versatile CO2 platforms available today. What sets the Helix apart is its range: the same device that delivers a gentle, non-ablative collagen-stimulating treatment with no downtime can also be dialed up to a fully ablative resurfacing session for patients ready for more significant correction. Between those two ends of the spectrum sit the CoolPeel, a superficial fractional treatment that refreshes tone and texture with minimal recovery, and the FUSION, which combines the CO2 wavelength with a 1570nm non-ablative mode simultaneously for enhanced results, and a more comfortable healing experience. Every session is calibrated to your specific skin concerns, tolerance, and lifestyle, so no two protocols are exactly alike.

CO2 LASER RESURFACING

 CO2 laser resurfacing is the treatment clients come to us for when they are ready for a real, lasting change. It is one of the most comprehensive resurfacing options available, addressing acne scarring, surgical scars, fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, age spots, uneven texture, and overall skin laxity in a single protocol. For clients who have tried more conservative treatments without the results they were hoping for, CO2 laser resurfacing can be the answer.

Why Choose CO2 Laser Resurfacing?

HELIX CO2 LASER

The Helix CO2 laser is the device behind some of the most impressive skin transformations we deliver at Made. Its fractional technology creates thousands of microscopic treatment columns in the skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact, accelerating the healing process and reducing overall recovery time. The precision of the laser allows our providers to customize the depth, density, and energy of every session to what your skin actually needs.

What Makes the Helix CO2 Different?

There’s no one size fits all aesthetic around here

CO2 laser resurfacing results are most significant for clients who are ready to make a meaningful investment in their skin and are prepared for the recovery process that comes with it. A thorough consultation is required before any CO2 treatment. We assess your skin, discuss your concerns and goals, and make sure you have a complete understanding of the process and what to expect before you commit to anything.

Our Process at Made Medical

Consultation

Your CO2 laser resurfacing experience at Made begins with a thorough consultation where we assess your skin, discuss your concerns and goals, and make sure you feel completely informed before moving forward. Nothing happens until you are ready.

Treatment

CO2 laser resurfacing treatment involves a real recovery process and we believe in setting honest expectations from the very beginning. Most clients experience redness, swelling, and peeling in the first week as the skin heals and renews from within. 

Results

This is where it gets exciting. Collagen remodeling continues beneath the surface for three to six months, meaning your CO2 laser resurfacing results keep improving long after with significant improvement for three to five years.

Go ahead, you can ask us anything

Is CO2 laser resurfacing safe for my skin tone? 

CO2 laser resurfacing requires careful consideration for clients with deeper skin tones due to the risk of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. During your consultation we will assess your skin carefully and discuss whether CO2 laser resurfacing treatment is appropriate or whether an alternative protocol like microneedling  or 1570nm Sulta service using the Helix laser would better serve your goals.

How much does CO2 laser resurfacing cost? 

CO2 laser resurfacing cost varies depending on the size of the treatment area and the depth of the protocol. We believe in full transparency around pricing and will walk you through the investment during your consultation. We also offer flexible financing through Cherry and CareCredit to make treatment accessible. 

What is the CO2 laser treatment recovery time? 

Recovery with the Helix CO2 depends entirely on which treatment is right for you. On the gentler end, non-ablative sessions may involve little to no downtime at all. More intensive resurfacing treatments can involve seven to fourteen days of redness, swelling, and peeling that require you to stay close to home and focus on aftercare. Downtime is one of the things we cover thoroughly in your consultation. We will never recommend a protocol without understanding what you are trying to achieve, and how much recovery you are realistically able to work with. The goal is always results that fit your life.

How do I prepare for CO2 laser resurfacing? 

Preparation typically involves avoiding sun exposure for several weeks prior to treatment, discontinuing certain skin care products, and following a pre-treatment protocol we provide after booking. We will give you everything you need to prepare well in advance of your appointment.

How long do CO2 laser resurfacing results last? 

Initial CO2 laser resurfacing results are visible within two to four weeks once the skin has healed. Results continue to develop for three to six months as collagen remodeling progresses. Most clients enjoy significant improvement for three to five years, with many seeing permanent changes in scarring, and texture.
