Affirm CO2 is a laser anti-aging treatment.  It safely and effectively treats wrinkles, sun-damaged skin and overall skin texture.  Below are answers to some of the most common patient questions.

 How does it work?

  

Cosmetic laser treatments reverse the signs of aging and sun-damaged skin by stimulating collagen production and promoting tissue tightening.

  

 Am I a candidate?

  

If your skin is showing signs of aging, then you are a candidate for laser treatment. Your practitioner can help you determine your specific needs.

 

Are there any side effects to treatment?

 

Laser anti-aging treatment should cause only minimal discomfort with a topical anesthetic. Any redness, swelling or puffiness that occurs can be gone within a week, if not a few days.

 

How many laser anti-aging treatments are required?

 

Results vary with each case. Patients may require anywhere from two to six treatments to achieve desired results. Each session will last from 30 to 60 minutes.

 

How long do results last?

 

Just like the aging process itself, this varies from person to person. However, if you take steps to protect and preserve your freshly laser rejuvenated skin - such as using SPF sunscreen, facial cleansers and creams - the results will last longer.
