CO2 laser skin resurfacing is an advanced medical treatment used to significantly improve deep wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven skin texture. By stimulating intensive collagen production, it renews the skin from within for long-lasting rejuvenation.
Book Online TodayCO2 laser resurfacing is widely considered one of the most effective techniques for total skin renewal. At Epsom Skin Clinics, we use advanced CO2 laser technology to target both the surface (epidermis) and deeper layers (dermis) of the skin.
The laser creates microscopic channels in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response to generate fresh, healthy collagen and push out damaged cells. This surgical-grade approach allows for precise control, whether treating delicate areas like the eyes or addressing more significant structural concerns like deep scarring and laxity.

CO2 resurfacing treats the full face to completely renew skin texture, tighten laxity, and remove deep-set wrinkles and sun damage. It is the gold standard for achieving a smoother, more youthful complexion.
Often referred to as a “laser eyelid lift,” this treatment targets fine lines, “crow’s feet,” and hooding around the eyes, tightening the skin for a refreshed and more awake appearance.
A powerful solution for smoothing pitted or raised acne scars. By removing damaged layers and stimulating deep tissue regeneration, the laser softens scar tissue and evens out the skin’s surface.
The initial healing phase typically lasts 7 to 10 days. During the first 48 hours, the skin will feel warm and tight, similar to a severe sunburn. Peeling usually occurs between days 3 and 5. While you can return to social activities after a week, internal collagen remodeling and the reduction of residual pinkness continue for up to 12 weeks.
The improvements in skin structure, such as scar reduction and wrinkle smoothing, are long-lasting. Because the treatment stimulates your own collagen, the results are yours to keep. However, the skin will continue to age naturally, so we recommend a medical-grade skincare routine and daily high-SPF protection to maintain your results for years to come.
We apply a high-strength topical anaesthetic cream prior to the treatment to ensure your comfort. During the procedure, you may feel a “pins and needles” or stinging sensation. Post-treatment, your skin will feel very hot for about 24 hours before settling into a dry, peeling phase.
You will notice an immediate tightening effect as the laser causes the skin to contract. However, the most significant results appear 3 to 6 months after the procedure as the new collagen matures, leading to firmer, clearer, and more youthful-looking skin.
Many patients achieve their desired results in just one session. For more severe acne scarring or very deep wrinkles, a course of 2-3 treatments spaced several months apart may be recommended to achieve optimal correction.
