What Is Fraxel CO2 Laser

Fraxel Repair CO₂ is a fractional ablative laser resurfacing treatment that uses targeted laser energy to create microscopic treatment zones in the skin. This process removes damaged surface tissue while stimulating a deeper wound-healing response that supports new collagen and elastin production.

Unlike lighter resurfacing treatments, Fraxel Repair is designed for patients who want more significant improvement in concerns like deep wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and rough texture.

Common Treatment Areas

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Décolleté
  • Around the mouth
  • Around the eyes
  • Acne-scarred areas
  • Sun-damaged skin
  • Select scar areas

Fraxel CO2 Laser can help improve:

  • Deep wrinkles and etched lines
  • Acne scars and textural scarring
  • Sun damage and photoaging
  • Rough or uneven skin texture
  • Enlarged pores
  • Crepey skin
  • Mild skin laxity
  • Pigmentation irregularities
  • Uneven tone
  • Surgical or traumatic scars in select cases
  • Skin quality that looks dull, damaged, or weathered

How It Works

Fractional CO2 resurfacing stimulates collagen remodeling.

Fraxel Repair works by creating controlled microscopic laser columns in the skin. These targeted columns treat damaged tissue while leaving surrounding skin intact, which supports a more efficient healing process compared with fully ablative resurfacing.

As the skin repairs itself, collagen production increases and the treated area gradually becomes smoother, firmer, and more even-looking.

Who Is It Best For?

Fraxel Repair CO₂ is best for patients who want more corrective resurfacing and are comfortable planning for visible downtime.

Best For:
  • Deep wrinkles and etched lines
  • Acne scars, including textural scarring
  • Sun damage and photoaging
  • Rough or uneven skin texture
  • Pigmentation irregularities
  • Crepey skin or early laxity
  • Enlarged pores and resurfacing concerns
  • Patients who want more dramatic improvement than lighter lasers
Not Ideal For:

  • Patients who want no downtime
  • Active tan or recent heavy sun exposure
  • Patients who cannot avoid sun during healing
  • Patients with certain medical conditions or healing risks
  • Patients seeking volume restoration rather than resurfacing
  • Patients who are better suited for surgical lifting

Dr. Kleydman can help determine whether your concern is primarily texture, scars, wrinkles, pigment, laxity, volume loss, or a combination.
