What is fractional CO₂ laser?
Fractional CO₂ uses a carbon-dioxide laser at 10,600 nm in a fractionated pattern (tiny, evenly spaced columns) to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. This stimulates new collagen during healing, which can lead to smoother-looking skin over time. Ablative CO₂ options typically involve more downtime than nonablative lasers but can offer more visible improvement for appropriate candidates

Why patients choose Revitalize
Evaluation first: A licensed provider reviews your goals, skin type, history, and sensitivities to confirm candidacy.
Tailored plan: Energy, density, and passes are selected for your skin and treatment area; number of sessions varies.
Thoughtful after-care: Clear instructions for cleansing, moisturization, and sun protection during healing. (CO₂ resurfacing generally involves several days of visible recovery—plan accordingly.)
What to expect
Before your visit: Arrive with clean skin; avoid tanning/retinoids per provider guidance.
During treatment: Your provider uses a handheld device to deliver fractionated pulses to the skin.
Right after: Redness, warmth, swelling, and a sandpaper-like feel are common and expected.
Downtime: Fractional CO₂ typically has several days to about a week+ of social downtime, depending on settings and your healing. Your provider will discuss what’s appropriate for you.
Sun care: Diligent broad-spectrum SPF and sun avoidance are essential during recovery.
Who may be a candidate
Adults seeking a cosmetic resurfacing option to improve the look of texture and tone. Fractional CO₂ may not be appropriate if you are pregnant, have active skin infection/irritation in the area, have recent isotretinoin use, are prone to abnormal scarring, use photosensitizing medications, or have other contraindications. Your provider will review risks, benefits, and alternatives and recommend settings—or a gentler approach—based on your skin. (Nonablative options generally have shorter recovery but more subtle improvement.)
Frequently asked questions
Is fractional CO₂ painful?
Sensation varies. Numbing and cooling measures are used as appropriate. Your provider will set expectations at consult.
How many sessions will I need?
Plans are individualized. Some people choose a single, more intensive session; others prefer a series of lighter sessions. Your provider will recommend an approach based on goals and downtime tolerance.
How long is recovery?
Plan for several days of visible healing and careful skin care; timing depends on treatment intensity and your healing response. Your provider will give a personalized timeline and after-care plan. ABCS
Will results last?
Skin continues to change naturally over time. Maintenance and sun protection help support results; no specific outcome is guaranteed.
