CO2 Laser Services in North Myrtle Beach

You may notice some immediate results after healing from your CO2 laser service at Touch Med Spa. This can include smoother skin, a more even skin tone, and a reduction in pore size. However, the real benefits of the CO2 laser will continue to build for 3-6 months after your treatment. That’s because the laser penetrates deep into the layers of the skin to repair deep-set damage and encourage collagen production. It truly is a great medium-term and long-term investment in your skin!

Not all skin types are eligible for CO2 laser treatments. It is best applied to acne-free, light skin and is absolutely not suited to patients taking medication that cause sun sensitivity. In addition, you should cease any use of retinols in your normal skin routine for up to a week before treatment.

Don’t get us wrong—CO2 laser results can be truly amazing. It can tighten the skin, significantly improve the quality of your tone and texture, and, yes, even create a subtle “lift.” That said, no laser service is going to be a one-to-one replacement for surgical intervention. It can, however, significantly delay the need for a facelift later down the line! If you have excessive or sagging skin and opt for surgery instead, laser services can also help you maintain those surgical results once you have healed.
