CO2 LASER TREATMENTS

Using advanced laser technology, a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser for skin resurfacing precisely removes outer layers of damaged skin to reveal the underlying skin which is softer, smoother, and younger looking. Erbium Laser and C02 technologies are the two most commonly used laser skin resurfacing treatment options. The CO2 laser is used in the treatment of deeper facial lines and wrinkles, while the Erbium Laser is used for fine lines, to moderately deep wrinkles to improve the appearance of the wrinkles and reduce the depth of them.

How Does CO2 fraxel Laser Resurfacing Work?

A CO2 laser allows the cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist to perform skin resurfacing procedures that reduce or eliminate more pronounced lines and wrinkles than similar treatments. This is done by removing deeper layers of damaged skin and stimulating the regeneration of healthy skin underneath.

Endovenous Laser Treatment – for Varicose Veins

Endovenous Laser Treatment is a treatment for varicose veins in which an optical fibre is inserted into the vein to be treated, and laser light, normally in the infra-red portion of the spectrum is shone into the interior of the vein. This causes the vein to contract, and the optical fibre is slowly withdrawn.

EVLT (Endovenous Laser Treatment) has the same meaning as ELT but is a trademark name owned by ‘Diomed’ and used as the name for their 910nm laser treatment unit for ELT. The 810nm laser is the original laser fibre wavelength as pioneered by Dr Robert Min of New York USA. Subsequently, various other fibres with different wavelengths have become available. The varying wavelength each aim to maximise local damage to a component of the varicose vein or the blood contained in it while minimising damage to adjacent tissues.

During the procedure, a catheter bearing a laser fibre is inserted under ultrasound guidance into the great saphenous vein (GSV) or small saphenous vein (SSV) through a small puncture. The catheter is then advanced (also under ultrasound guidance) to the level of the groin or knee crease. Dilute local anesthesia is injected around and along the vein (perivascular infiltration) using ultrasound imaging to place the local anaesthetic solution around the vein, mostly in a sub-facial location. This technique derives from the Tumescent Local Anaesthesia ( TLA) method long used and proven safe and effective for some methods of Liposuction. The laser is activated whilst the catheter or laser fibre is slowly withdrawn, resulting in obliteration of the saphenous vein along its entire length.
(Unfortunately, laser treatment is not suitable for black skin due to problems with scarring.)

The treatment has a 93-98% success rate requiring only one visit.
