About the Procedure

 

Aftercare and Recovery

After treatment with the CO2 laser, you will feel some slight swelling of the skin with mild tingling.  Once the topical numbing medication wears off, you will feel some tingling of the skin for approximately 12 to 24 hours.  It is recommended that patients take oral analgesic medications including Tylenol or ibuprofen post treatment to reduce the discomfort associated with the laser resurfacing.
