Revolutionary Matrix CO2 Laser for Skin Rejuvenation

The Matrix CO2 Laser Therapy helps minimize wrinkles, sun damage, discoloration, and scarring all while helping increase collagen production through its revolutionary fractionated CO2 technology. Unlike traditional CO2 laser resurfacing, the Matrix CO2 laser resurfacing has more manageable downtime and manageable sensation during the treatment.

How Does Matrix CO2 Laser Work?

The high speed UltraFine Fractional scanner will direct a grid pattern of tiny pulses of light called MicroAblative Columns (MACs) at the skin. Each MAC delivers a column of energy that can reach the skins dermal layer while preserving the untreated skin in between the columns. This process promotes rapid healing and stimulates a natural renewal process of the body’s own collagen. After receiving Matrix CO2 Laser Fort Collins patients can experience glowing rejuvenated skin!

Matrix CO2 LaserCommonly Asked Questions

At Harmony Skin & Wellness in Fort Collins Matrix CO2 Laser patients are given anesthetic ointments and cooling devices to reduce discomfort during and after the procedure; treatment sensations vary from person to person. As tiny pulses of energy are delivered into the skin, most clients will experience a warm, sharp feeling and immediate tightening of the skin.

Many people consider even just one CO2 treatment a way of aging backwards. Because of the total resurfacing that occurs during the treatment many people feel as though they have lost a decade of skin damage, wrinkles, and laxity. With continued care and a healthy skin regimen that includes facials, products, and sun protection, the ongoing benefits from the Matrix CO2 Laser can last up to a decade. It is generally regarded that having one CO2 every ten years after the age of 35 will prevent many of the tell-tale signs of visible aging.

Many of our Fort Collins Matrix CO2 Laser patients plan for it well in advance in order to create time in their schedule to have it performed. Generally two days of recovery time is necessary, with the skin being able to have mineral based make-up (an approved brand will be recommended) applied on the third day. The skin may look sunburned, or over-tanned during the initial 3-5 day period. Although there is a small amount of time required to heal, most patients find their skin is more luminous and dewy then they’ve ever experienced by the second to third week. In addition, adding a golden PRP mask or injections to your treatment will help reduce redness and speed healing times for most.

At Harmony Skin & Wellness Clinic we love to help clients achieve the skin they have always dreamed of. We strongly urge that clients who are receiving a full face CO2 also incorporate their neck and décolleté in order to preserve the integrity and appearance of their neck and chest as well. If you have ever worn a makeup shade on your face that doesn’t match your neck you understand how strange it can look. Sometimes women take great care of their facial skin and leave their neck and décolleté behind. In order to ensure that a person doesn’t look flawless from only the neck up, we recommend taking care of the more delicate areas as well.

When considering these procedures please be sure to schedule 4-6 weeks prior to any special event or extended travel plans.
