What is CO2RE Fractionated Skin Rejuvenation?

CO2RE is a fractional therapy CO2 laser for skin resurfacing. Fractional therapy is referring to the pixilated distribution of laser light. Fractionated treatment allows for smaller thermal injuries as opposed to fully ablative resurfacing thus allowing for shorter downtime and fewer complications. As opposed to older traditional CO2 lasers, CO2RE is versatile, giving physicians the ability to treat the patients both superficially and deep skin layers simultaneously while maintaining precise control. Dr. Hardesty wants to provide his patients with optimal care and the best results, which is why he uses the CO2RE treatment system.
