CO2 laser treatment is a highly effective option for addressing loose or sagging skin. It works by using carbon dioxide lasers to resurface the skin, stimulating collagen production, and tightening the skin. This treatment can be particularly beneficial for improving skin texture and elasticity, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and tightening loose skin.
How CO2 Laser Treats Loose Skin:
Laser Resurfacing: The CO2 laser targets the outer layers of the skin, creating tiny controlled injuries. This process removes damaged skin and stimulates the deeper layers to promote collagen and elastin production.
Collagen Stimulation: The heat from the laser stimulates the production of collagen, a protein essential for skin firmness and elasticity. As collagen production increases, the skin becomes tighter and smoother.
Skin Tightening: The treatment also promotes the remodelling of existing collagen fibres, leading to a tightening effect and improved skin texture.
Benefits of CO2 Laser for Loose Skin:
Improves Skin Tightness: Effective in tightening loose or sagging skin, particularly in areas like the face, neck, and décolleté.
Reduces Wrinkles: Helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production.
Enhances Skin Texture: Improves overall skin texture and tone, leading to a more youthful appearance.
Long-Lasting Results: Provides significant and long-lasting improvements in skin tightness and texture.
