Ablative Skin Resurfacing is Highly Effective. Ablative lasers treat a broad range of skin conditions by removing all or part of the skin. The body’s natural healing processes then replace the damaged skin with new and healthy tissue. The treatment outcome is a High Degree of Efficacy - dramatic improvement in a single session. CO₂ lasers have long been considered the industry’s ‘Gold Standard’ for ablation. The aim is to improve collagen remodelling and shrinkage to promote a very visible cosmetic result from the first session. The appearance, colour and texture of the skin improves without either lengthy post-op recovery time or compromising work or social activities.
