Key Takeaways of the Page
Fractional CO2 laser treatment is a medical procedure that uses lasers to improve the appearance of the skin. The DEKA DOT system, preferred by board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Rami Batniji, is one of the most innovative and safe technologies used for skin resurfacing and rejuvenation. It is often used as a non-surgical option to treat wrinkles, sun damage, scars, and other skin conditions by jumpstarting the bodyโs natural skin regeneration process.
A Breakdown of Fractional CO2 Laser Treatments
Fractional CO2 laser treatment can be performed on the face, neck, chest, or hands. We will discuss the benefits of fractional CO2 laser treatment and how it can improve your appearance!
Multiple laser treatments are available; each comes with its specialty, capabilities, and potential risks. A fractional CO2 laser is known to be less risky than many other solutions, primarily because of its ability to repair scarring, discoloration, sun damage, and natural effects of aging in the skin. An important component of fractioned laser treatments are they only focus on treating fractions of the skin, which leaves treated areas between untreated areas of the skin. This pattern-like marking on the dermis is what encourages regeneration of new skin.
A CO2 laser can work wonders for acne scars, tighten the skin, and promote healthier-looking skin. With the help of a fractional CO2 laser treatment, youโll get the benefit of collagen synthesis and skin regeneration that many other treatments simply canโt provide. It also offers consistent results, including a recovery time thatโs hard to beat.
After your treatment, youโll also notice a gradual improvement in the quality of your skin thanks to the increase in collagen production, delivering long-lasting, satisfactory results. Itโs also important to note that different CO2 lasers on the market can handle this procedure. We specifically use one of the best. The DEKA DOT fractional CO2 laser. Although a few of the benefits of this procedure are mentioned above, the list of potential benefits is quite extensive.

Every personโs skin is unique, but everyone can reap the long list of benefits of the treatment. Not only can it be used for the face, but itโs also a viable option for the neck, body, and hands, so you can tackle any area of the body where youโd like to improve. The results from this treatment will also minimize any tightening procedures you may need in the future, and itโs an excellent choice to handle various discolorations in the skin, whether theyโre too dark or too light.
Those with fairer skin are prone to have more noticeable brown or red spots, which can become increasingly apparent as they age. The fractional CO2 laser can quickly improve the appearance of these spots with minimal effort. Aside from the cosmetic benefits the CO2 laser provides, it can even help reduce lesions that may be precancerous, which can drastically affect your health as you age. Many people are happy to learn whatโs possible with a fractional CO2 laser treatment, and itโs known to provide some of the best results regarding resurfacing and skin rejuvenation.
How Much Does the Treatment Cost?
Thankfully, the CO2 laser treatment cost isnโt the most expensive cosmetic treatment, among others. Itโs important to consider that the cost of your particular procedure is bound to vary from what you may find online, but you can expect a general price range before you have your consultation with your surgeon. If youโre looking at only a facial treatment, you can expect the procedure to range anywhere from $1,500 to $3,000, depending on your particular circumstance. Of course, if youโre looking to work on multiple areas of the body during a single operation, this will only increase the cost.
Nevertheless, our experienced providers will break down the total cost of your procedure during your consultation. As with most cosmetic procedures, health insurance wonโt be able to help you here. Because of this, most plastic surgeons will offer various payment solutions to make the treatment available and affordable. Regardless of the cost, the treatment is a large commitment thatโs bound to provide substantial results.
Laser Resurfacing for Darker Skin
A common myth is that laser resurfacing is only safe for light skin types. While it is true that certain lasers pose more challenges when working with darker skin, there are safe and effective resurfacing options available. Lasers like the Nd: YAG, which we utilize at our Newport Beach and Beverly Hills offices, have wavelengths perfect for skin darker types. At Batniji Facial Plastics, we individualize the skincare recommendations based on the patientโs specific skin condition. A laser resurfacing patient with a lighter skin tone doesnโt really need much in terms of skincare prep before the laser whereas the darker skin tone patient would benefit from pre-treating the skin with our skin-brightening pads, retinol, and using sunscreen.
