Fractional CO2 laser
Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing is an established ablative treatment of acne scars, warts, wrinkles and other skin defects, the world over. Laser beams are targeted to enter the skin, up to 1 mm deep and make pinpoint areas of heating, causing pillars of microburn injury. The skin reacts by producing more collagen, thereby reducing scars, wrinkles, uneven skin colouring, looseness of skin, structural irregularities, thin layers of collagen and becoming smoother.
If you have a 1 week recovery window at hand and are looking at maximum results with just one treatment, Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing is for you. This not only deals with the skin problems you are looking to repair but compares to multiple non-invasive treatments at once.
How Does Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing Work?
At Ambrosia we stand by our promise to offer you the best-in-class treatments from the world over. We offer the latest version of the Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing treatment that uses concise pulsed light energy called Ultra-Pulse or continuous light rays. These rays are delivered in a scanning pattern to remove thin skin layers with minimal heat damage. This type of laser treatment aims to remove the entire top layer of skin in the area where you have scars. It takes 7-10 days for the ablative laser colour to begin to fade. Recovery can take up to 1-2 weeks.
We would recommend you to consider the fractional CO2 laser if you are looking for permanent, natural-looking results to rejuvenate your face, improve your appearance, and eliminate the signs of scars. It can be a way to create new collagen and increase skin elasticity and firmness while keeping the skin distributed evenly.
Treatment Process at Ambrosia:
Pre-treatment:
Preparing the skin is critical for a Fractional CO2 Laser treatment to avoid the side effect of darker pigmentation and that begins a month before the first session. This is done with anti-pigment creams.
During treatment:
Initially 3 sessions are advised at monthly intervals and after analysing the results, if required, further sessions are added. Treatment takes 1 hour of anaesthesia cream application to numb the skin and 15-20 min to treat acne scars. Procedure may have mild discomfort.
Post treatment:
After the procedure, the skin looks pink and spotty. Depending on the depth of treatment 7-10 days may be required for skin to look normal and heal. You are advised to remain indoors and avoid the sun strictly.
Skin looks tighter and less scared after the treatment. Maximum results are seen after several sessions. Sunscreen usage is compulsory throughout acne scar treatment.
Client Testimonials
I had lovely laugh lines that made me look attractive when I smiled, or so my friends said. But it worried me that my skin was getting less supple as I grew older. Having read and heard so much about skin tightening treatments, I decided to give it a shot. My first consultation at Ambrosia helped me understand what to expect and how to care for my skin post procedure. Dr. Priti’s thoroughness during the examination was very reassuring too. I thoroughly recommend everyone who is concerned about their skin looking uncared for as they age. Ambrosia totally helped me remind myself that age is only a number. Thank you Dr. Priti for your magic.

My teenage acne had left a lot of scars on my face. That was all I saw when I looked in the mirror. While searching for treatment, I came across Ambrosia and decided to check out what could be done about it. My first impression when I walked in was one of complete ease with the warmth of the staff and the calm atmosphere. The initial consultation helped me understand what can be done to gradually remove the scars on my face as well as what I needed to do post-procedure. I am so happy with the results and go out of my way to mention Ambrosia whenever someone points out how smooth and beautiful my skin looks now. Thank you Ambrosia!

I had broken my nose as a child after a fall. It was misshapen because of that. The twisted nose also led to breathing problems. Searching for solutions, I came across Ambrosia Clinic and the procedures they offer to correct that. I was suggested surgery. I am thankful to the team of plastic surgeons who helped correct my nose as well as the breathing problems. My recovery time was minimal and I am able to lead a normal life since then. A big thank you to the great team at Ambrosia.

I had skin pigmentation on my face. It always made me conscious and I would hide it with layers of makeup. My friend suggested I meet Dr. Priti and do something about it instead of hiding behind makeup. I did not know what to expect, but was totally blown away by her warmth and the modern set up at Ambrosia. She not only explained the procedures I could get done but also what to expect at each stage during recovery. I thoroughly recommend Ambrosia and especially Dr. Priti to everyone.
