Acne Scarring

Fractional CO2
​We offer two different Fractional CO2 lasers at our practice: 1) The DEKA Smartxide DOT Laser Fractional Resurfacing Treatment (Dermal Optical Thermolysis) or DOT, and 2) The Candela CO2RE. This is a non-invasive laser therapy that dramatically improves skin texture and pigmentation, including the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, surgical scars and sun damage. A breakthrough in laser technology, the DOT and CO2RE are now offered at Orland Plastic Surgery. Dr. Evan Manolis performs each procedure himself. The DOT and CO2RE are the lasers that everyone is talking about and have been written up by top beauty editors in magazines like Vogue, OK, and Elle. 

Fractional CO2 Therapy is considered the Rolls Royce of laser treatments. Dr. Manolis can customize Fractional CO2 (DOT or CO2RE Therapy) to your specific needs to obtain optimal results. The treatment stimulates new collagen growth and tightens the skin. Unlike traditional CO2, downtime is minimal. The DOT and CO2RE CO2 Lasers aredesigned to treat your face, eyes, neck, chest and hands. It can restore a more youthful look to your skin and, with proper care, can be maintained for years. Fractional CO2 Laser Therapy is safe, effective and efficient.

The CO2RE and DOT CO2 Therapy Advantage
The DEKA Smartxide DOT Laser and CO2RE Laser have proven to be a breakthrough in skin resurfacing devices. Unlike other varieties of CO2 lasers that are ablative (they remove the top layer of the skin, the epidermis, and some of the dermis layer beneath) both the CO2RE and DOT lasers are minimally invasive, fast and efficient. While other CO2 lasers achieve good results, the skin can often be left red, raw, and prone to infection for weeks after the procedure is completed. Our lasers also provide a treatment alternative to areas of the skin, such as the neck and décolletage that require a less aggressive approach and the use of non-ablative methods. Instead of removing the epidermis, DOT and CO2RE Therapy sends pulses of light into the dermis, leaving the skin intact. Recovery from CO2RE resurfacing lasers will take about 1-2 weeks. The DEKA Smartxide DOT Laser  and CO2RE Lasers offer the ultimate choice in skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime and significant results.

The Process...
With the DEKA Smartxide DOT and CO2RE Therapy, only a fraction of the skin receives the laser light. This is called “fractional skin resurfacing”. The laser utilizes a ‘dot’ pattern to create thousands of microscopic perforations in the skin while leaving the areas around each ‘dot’ intact. Very precise microbeams penetrate deeply below the epidermis selectively treating problem areas with pinpoint accuracy and without damaging the surface skin. Thousands of tiny dots/scanned pulses of laser energy are applied which promotes immediate skin tightening and new collagen growth. Wrinkles and fine lines, scars, and sun spots are dramatically decreased instantly. After the treatment, your skin will extensively restore itself from the edge of each pulse. Inturn, soft, new skin will begin to emerge. The undamaged skin promotes rapid healing of the entire treatment area, resulting in faster recovery time and minimal side effects.

DOT Therapy with the SmartXide DOT CO2 laser and The Candela CO2RE Laser offers the ultimate in skin rejuvenation in just under an hour for most treatments. The overall procedure is safer, faster and more efficient than treatment with a conventional ablative laser. It is ideal for the treatment of sun damage, brown spots, fine lines, wrinkles, skin laxity/texture and acne scars. Not only does the DOT and CO2RE offer amazing results, but it does so safely, quickly with little downtime.

The DOT and CO2RE Lasers are the easy way to achieve a healthy, fresh, and radiant glow. Traditional skin care maintenance, diet and exercise alone cannot promote as quick of a result. Give us a call today for a free consultation.
