Treatment of Acne Marks with CO2 Laser

Acne marks can affect the confidence and appearance of the skin. At Clínica Dr. Jorge García we offer an advanced and safe treatment to reduce the visibility of these marks through the use of CO2 laser, one of the most effective technologies today to improve skin texture and tone.

What is CO2 laser treatment for acne marks?

Acne mark treatment with CO2 laser uses light energy to remove damaged layers of skin and promote cell regeneration. This technique allows acne scars to be treated precisely, achieving a more uniform and youthful skin surface. Before the procedure, we carry out a personalized assessment to adapt the treatment to each skin type and each type of brand.

How do you work?

Initial assessment

We carry out a personalized diagnosis to analyze the type of scars and the characteristics of your skin.

Skin preparation

Topical anesthesia is applied to ensure a comfortable and pain-free experience.

Laser Application

By means of a controlled sweep of the fractional CO2 laser, we treat the affected areas promoting cell regeneration.

Post

The skin may be red, slightly swollen, and peeling for a few days. We provide specific care and medical follow-up for a proper recovery.

Benefits: collagen, cell regeneration and skin elasticity

Personalized evaluation and advanced technique

The procedure begins with the application of local anesthesia for maximum comfort. The CO2 laser then performs a controlled sweep over the affected areas, removing dead cells and stimulating the natural production of collagen, which improves both skin elasticity and the overall appearance of the skin.

Visible results, post-treatment and recovery

After the session, the skin may have mild redness and inflammation, normal symptoms that disappear within a few days. The results progressively improve as the skin regenerates, showing a significant reduction in marks and greater luminosity and uniformity.

Why perform the treatment in autumn and winter?

CO2 laser treatment is especially recommended in the autumn and winter months, when sun exposure is lower and the risk of hyperpigmentation is considerably reduced. In addition, lower temperatures help in better recovery and comfort during the post-treatment process.
