Laser Treatment

eCO2

San Francisco - East Bay

The eCO2™ High Speed Fractional CO2 Laser is one of the most powerful skin resurfacing treatments available, designed to dramatically improve skin tone, texture, and overall quality. This advanced laser technology employs quantum mechanics to target specific molecules within the skin, removing fine wrinkles, tightening the skin, and stimulating collagen and elastin production deep below the surface -- delivering significant improvements with a single treatment.

eCO2™ is an ablative fractional CO2 laser, meaning it removes precise micro-columns of damaged tissue across the treatment area while leaving surrounding skin intact. This fractional approach speeds up the healing process while allowing the laser to penetrate deep into the dermis to remodel collagen and resurface the skin. Because it’s ablative, eCO2™ delivers more dramatic results in a single treatment compared to non-ablative lasers like LaseMD®.

Benefits of eCO2™

  • Reduces deep lines and wrinkles

  • Treats severe sun damage and pigmentation irregularities

  • Highly effective in softening acne scars, traumatic scars, and surgical scars

  • Tightens lax skin and stimulates long-term collagen production

What to Expect

eCO2™ treatments are performed with a topical anesthetic to keep you comfortable. The procedure takes about 30–60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. Patients typically experience redness, swelling, and peeling for 7–10 days. Once healed, your skin will look smoother, tighter, and more refreshed, with improvements continuing for months as collagen remodeling occurs.
