- Before the treatment, an anonymous digital photo of the scar area in the affected skin area is taken in order to effectively document the course of the laser therapy.
- After the skin area has been disinfected, the effective laser therapy is carried out. Laser treatment of the affected areas is painless and generally very well tolerated. A pain-relieving ointment can be used for particularly sensitive areas of the body.
- During the laser therapy (duration, depending on the size, from several minutes to an hour), the patient wears laser safety glasses.< /li>
- After the laser treatment has been completed, cooling takes place.
- For the following days, please follow the recommendations of our specialists.

Yes. CO₂ laser treatments can be enhanced with:

Definitely. This treatment offers a non-invasive yet highly effective method for skin rejuvenation—reducing wrinkles, tightening skin, and improving texture without surgery or lengthy downtime.
After treatment, your skin may be red and sensitive—similar to a sunburn. Over the next few days, it will begin to flake and renew itself. Most people experience 3–7 days of recovery, depending on the treatment depth.
Temporary redness, swelling, or flaking is normal. Rarely, there can be pigment changes or prolonged sensitivity. Strict sun protection and proper aftercare are essential to minimize any risk.
- Avoid sun exposure and apply SPF daily
