Revitalize Your Skin with the eCO2 3D Fractional CO2 Laser
At CGO Med Aesthetics in San Diego, CA, we offer the advanced eCO2 3D fractional CO2 laser by Cynosure Lutronic to help you achieve smoother, younger-looking skin. This innovative resurfacing technology precisely targets wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and uneven texture, stimulating powerful collagen renewal with less downtime than traditional CO2 lasers.
How Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing Works
The eCO2 laser delivers CO2 energy in a fractional pattern, creating thousands of microscopic treatment columns while leaving surrounding skin intact. These tiny zones remove damaged tissue and trigger an intense wound-healing response that rebuilds collagen and elastin from deep within. Because untreated skin between the columns speeds recovery, patients enjoy dramatic resurfacing results with faster healing and fewer side effects. The 3D capability allows your provider to adjust depth and density for precise, customized treatment.
