Alma CO₂ Laser Resurfacing in Fort Lauderdale

Treatment Summary

A high level overview of this treatment to help get you acquainted.

The Alma CO₂ laser is one of the most powerful and effective tools for skin resurfacing available today. It is an ablative laser that works by delivering precise, concentrated pulses of light energy to the skin, removing thin outer layers of damaged tissue.

This process eliminates surface-level imperfections while also heating the underlying dermis, which stimulates a massive collagen remodeling response. The result is a dramatic improvement in skin texture, tone, and tightness, effectively treating deep wrinkles, severe sun damage, and complex scars.

Questions? We have answers.

What is the downtime and healing process really like?

We are frank about this: there is downtime. For the first week, your skin will be red, swollen, and will go through a peeling process. You will need to follow a strict aftercare routine. We call this 'social downtime.' The redness will gradually fade over the following weeks, revealing fresh, new skin.

When will I see my final results?

You will notice a significant improvement in your skin's surface once the initial healing phase is complete at around 10-14 days. However, the magic of this treatment is in the collagen remodeling, which continues for 3 to 6 months. Your results will continue to improve over this period.

Is the treatment painful?

Patient comfort is our priority. We use a combination of topical numbing creams and other measures to ensure the treatment is as comfortable as possible. Patients typically describe the sensation as a feeling of intense heat.

How many treatments will I need?

For the vast majority of patients, a single CO₂ laser treatment is sufficient to achieve their desired results. The effects are long-lasting, often for several years, provided you protect your new skin with sunscreen and a proper skincare regimen.
