CO2 Fractional Laser

About the CO2 Fractional Laser

The CO2 Fractional Laser is a resurfacing system for dermatology and aesthetic clinics, used for work on skin texture, fine lines and the look of acne scars. Fractional CO2 is one of the longest-established ways to resurface skin with a laser, and it belongs in clinics where scarring and texture are regular topics in consultation.

A CO2 laser emits light that is absorbed by the water in skin, vaporising tissue where it lands. Fractional technique splits that beam into a grid of tiny columns, so each pass affects only part of the surface and leaves untouched skin between them. The surrounding skin supports healing, and the controlled injury prompts the skin's own renewal, including new collagen, which is why fractional CO2 is used for resurfacing, texture and the look of scarring.

Dermis & Dosis imports the CO2 Fractional Laser and supplies it to dermatologists and aesthetic clinics in Pakistan. It suits a practice with a doctor-led skin service, since fractional CO2 is an ablative laser that calls for medical judgement on settings, aftercare and client selection. Clinics comparing options should also look at the CO2 Fractional Laser (Metal Tube), built on a metal laser tube for stable output over long clinic days.

In the treatment room

Fractional CO2 is a premium, doctor-led service. Each course starts with a consultation, a skin assessment and a frank talk about downtime and aftercare, and because recovery takes time, clients often plan sessions around quieter weeks rather than just before an event.

Ablative lasers carry a higher risk of pigment change, particularly on darker skin, so careful client selection and conservative settings, following the manufacturer's instructions, come first. Topical numbing, sterile technique, protective eyewear for everyone in the room and smoke extraction are standard. Clear written aftercare with strict sun protection helps clients through the healing phase.
