CO₂ LASER: Fractional vs Fully Ablative ✨
Not all CO₂ lasers work the same — here’s the difference:
🔹 Fractional CO₂
• Treats tiny columns of skin, leaving healthy skin in between
• Faster healing & less downtime
• Great for fine lines, texture, acne scars, pores
• Multiple sessions may be needed
👉 Best for moderate results with minimal downtime
🔹 Fully Ablative CO₂
• Removes the entire surface layer of skin
• More intense treatment = dramatic results
• Longer downtime & recovery
• Ideal for deep wrinkles, severe sun damage, advanced scarring
👉 Best for maximum skin resurfacing in one treatment
✨ Both stimulate collagen — the difference is intensity, downtime, and results
📌 Always consult a professional to choose what’s right for your skin.
