Five reasons why our patients love the HELIX CO2 laser rejuvenation service
At United Medical and Aesthetics, our providers can help patients improve their skin’s texture and tone with a wide array of treatment options, including our popular HELIX CO2 laser resurfacing treatment. Below are five reasons why our patients ask about this service to enhance their skin’s health and appearance:
Before & After Treatment Image
- Amazing results. The HELIX CO2 laser resurfacing treatment is highly effective in improving the skin’s overall texture and tone. It uses a fractionated CO2 or carbon dioxide laser to remove the upper layer of damaged skin, promoting the growth of healthier, smoother skin underneath. After undergoing this treatment, patients have reported significant improvements in scars, wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, and uneven pigmentation.
- Minimal downtime. Unlike traditional ablative laser treatments that require weeks of downtime for recovery, the HELIX CO2 laser service has minimal downtime. Most of our patients at United Medical and Aesthetics can resume their regular activities within five to seven days after the procedure. This is because the fractionated laser technology used in HELIX CO2 treatment only targets a fraction of the skin, leaving the surrounding tissues unharmed and promoting faster healing.
- Versatile treatment options. Our providers can customize the HELIX CO2 laser resurfacing treatment to meet each patient’s specific needs and concerns. By adjusting the depth and intensity of the laser, we can target different skin layers. If you have deeper lip lines or more under-eye wrinkles or require mild, medium, or our deepest semi-ablative (the holy grail of all treatments), United Medical and Aesthetics provides total customizations for your needs with appropriate facial mapping and consultation.
- Safe for all skin types. Unlike some other laser treatments, the HELIX CO2 treatment is considered safe for all patient skin types and tones. The fractionated laser technology minimizes the potential for hyperpigmentation or scarring that may occur with other lasers, making it a suitable option for patients with darker skin. It’s important to see a provider who knows how to adjust this laser for darker skin tones. Aleta and her team are SkinClusive certified and well-trained in all skin colors.
- Long-lasting results. With proper skincare after the treatment, the results of HELIX CO2 laser resurfacing can last several years. Patients who maintain a healthy skincare routine and protect their skin from sun damage can enjoy long-lasting improvements in their skin’s texture and appearance. The combined wavelengths of CO2 + 1570 provide longer-lasting results than just the erbium sem-ablative treatments commonly used. Again, with our HELIX expertise, we combine resurfacing and skin tightening in one treatment.
