The skin is composed of two main layers, the epidermis or outer skin, and the dermis or inner skin. The epidermis is the part which is most prone to damage, and consists of mostly dead skin cells. The dermis, on the other hand, is alive, with blood vessels and protein deposits, as well as sweat glands and touch receptors. As a person ages, the ability of the skin to function normally is also affected. When damage on the surface is detected by the skin, it regenerates by inducing cell division for healthier cells, but this process slows down with age. Smooth and tight skin in your youth tends to become rough and become saggy as you aged, leading to creases and wrinkles. The decrease in the elasticity of the skin is attributed to the loss of collagen, or the protein that helps keep skin firm and resilient. Many are considering laser skin treatments; laser skin firming and laser skin tightening. Thus fractional CO2 is creating such a stir in the area of dermatology. This procedure uses special lasers that clear off dead skin cells from the surface and create micron sized wounds spaced in regular intervals around the target area of the face. The small wounds facilitate the resurfacing of the skin, such that collagen can be produced and other healthy skin cells can proliferate. This results in rejuvenated and healthier looking skin free of wrinkles. Given time to heal, the skin regenerates and looks younger than ever before. The results are long-lasting, but should be followed up with good skin hygiene and avoidance of excessive sun exposure. How much does this anti aging skin care treatment cost? On the average, fractional CO2 laser skin resurfacing can cost about $1,000. The whole procedure takes approximately 30 minutes. People who undergo this procedure can go back to work or resume normal activities as there is no downtime. Side effects of fractional CO2 laser skin resurfacing are minimal, this includes partial redness or irritation in the area that was treated.
