Book a TreatmentThe eCO2 Skin Resurfacing treatment is a relatively comfortable treatment. Our advanced Laser Technicians ensure a seamless experience throughout:
Initial Consultation: Our staff will evaluate your skin, gain a better understanding of the goals you’d like to achieve through the treatment, and we will create a tailored treatment plan to address your targets.
Numbing: A topical numbing cream will be applied to minimize any discomfort during the treatment.
Treatment Process: The eCO2 Laser will create precise micro-injuries into your skin, stimulating your natural healing process to produce collagen and promote skin renewal. You may feel a warm, prickling sensation during the treatment. .
Duration: Each session is typically 30 minutes, but may run longer, depending on the treatment area.
Prior to your appointment we ask that you follow the preparation guidelines to minimize risks:
Abstain from Certain Products: Stop using retinoids, exfoliants, and other harsh skincare products one week before your appointment.
Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight and avoid tanning for at least two weeks before your treatment.
Stay Hydrated: In order to receive optimal results, we ask that you drink plenty of water prior to your treatment date to keep your skin well-hydrated.
Avoid Blood Thinners: Consult your doctor prior to undergoing this treatment if you are on any blood-thinning medications. Do not consume supplements such as aspirin and fish oil, a week before treatment.
Clean Skin: Use a gentle cleanser to wash your face prior to your appointment. Abstain from using any makeup, lotions, or other skincare products when arriving at your scheduled appointment.
Proper aftercare is essential for optimal results and minimizing recovery time:
Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your skin from direct sunlight and use a high SPF, medical-grade sunscreen.
Keep It Clean: Gently cleanse the treated area with a gentle cleanser and water.
Hydrate and Moisturize: Keep your skin hydrated with a gentle moisturizer recommended by our team.
Avoid Makeup: Refrain from applying makeup to the treated area until it fully heals.
Follow-Up Care: Attend follow-up appointments in a timely manner to ensure optimal progress and to address any concerns.
Yes, eCO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing is generally suitable for a wide range of skin types and tones. Darker skin tones may pose a higher risk for potential hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation. It is imperative to schedule a thorough initial consultation with one of our team members to assess your skin type and determine what the best treatment is for you.
Temporary redness and swelling are normal and typically subside within a few days to a week. The treated skin will peel and flake as part of the natural healing process. Some discomfort, similar to a sunburn, can be expected during and after the procedure.
Abstain from applying makeup to the treated area until it fully heals. Your skin will need a minimum of 3-4 days to heal properly and reduce the risk of irritation or infection. After this initial period, you can reintroduce makeup, but be sure to use gentle, non-comedogenic products to avoid clogging pores and exacerbating any potential side effects. Always follow any additional aftercare instructions provided by our staff for optimal results.
The timeline for seeing results from eCO2 laser treatment varies. Each individual is unique and the intensity of the treatment depends on the specific skin concerns being addressed. However, you may notice initial results 1-2 weeks post-treatment once your skin has completed its healing process. We recommend continuing treatments 4-6 weeks apart to see optimal results as the collagen production increases.
After your eCO2 Laser Treatment, you can expect redness, swelling, and a warm tingling on your skin surface. These symptoms usually subside within a few days to a week. You will experience some peeling/flaking on the treated skin as this is part of the natural healing process. Full recovery and optimal results can take several weeks.
Downtime is minimal and quite manageable compared to more traditional CO2 laser treatments. Some common post-treatment symptoms include mild redness and swelling, which typically subsides within a few days to a week.
Yes, eCO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing is a safe treatment when performed by a highly trained Laser Technician. Our team of skin experts at Seamless Health are trained technicians in performing this treatment safely and effectively.

The number of treatment sessions required depends on your skin concerns and goals. We typically recommend 2-4 sessions for optimal results. Each session should be spaced 4-6 weeks apart to allow your skin ample time to heal and to see the full effects of each treatment. After achieving your desired results, you may need maintenance sessions 1-2 times a year.
