Fractional Co2 Laser Machine

What is a fractional co2 laser machine?

CO2 laser light has a wavelength of 10.6μm and is completely absorbed by water-rich human tissue (suitable for a range of skin types with settings selected by a trained operator). It converts this energy into heat, causing localized vaporization (ablation) and thermal coagulation. The system utilizes a sealed CO2 laser source that delivers focused energy via an articulating light-guide arm. This configuration allows for high directional accuracy and ensures high energy density at the treatment site.

CO2 lasers operate in the invisible infrared wavelength range, requiring aiming to ensure visibility of the treatment beam. When the laser beam passes through a focusing lens, the heat generated vaporizes the target tissue.

Fractional Output Technology

In fractional laser resurfacing, the laser beam is broken down into numerous tiny microbeams. These beams are separated so that when they strike the skin surface, small areas of skin between the beams remain untouched and undamaged. These untreated areas of skin promote faster recovery and healing, and reduce the risk of complications. Fractional microbeams treat small areas, called microtreatment zones, creating sufficient laser damage to stimulate new collagen production and ultimately rejuvenate facial skin.

The system's specialized articulated arm probe, featuring automated 360° rotation, enables precise intra-vaginal treatment. It delivers controlled thermal energy (50-70°C) at specific depths within the vaginal mucosa.

As the skin begins to heal (which takes approximately three weeks), your patient's skin will develop a light pink tint. During this time, you'll begin to see improvements in skin texture and tone. However, the full effects may not be apparent until three to six months after the initial treatment.

FAQ offractional CO₂ laser machine

▶ What is the difference between ablative and non-ablative fractional lasers?

Ablative fractional lasers generate coherent beams of light that are absorbed by human tissue and converted into energy. These beams are then applied across multiple wavelengths. In the targeted area, the energy heats up, causing tissue ablation (also known as vaporization). This approach is effective for deeper wrinkles, scars, and severe photodamage, but typically requires a longer recovery period.

Non-ablative fractional lasers are non-invasive laser treatments with a shorter recovery time. They stimulate collagen growth, improving skin tone and texture over time, but multiple treatments are typically required to achieve the same results.

Both ablative and non-ablative fractional lasers target only a small area of skin at a time, leaving untreated tissue, which speeds healing and reduces risks.

▶ What are the advantages of a fractional CO₂ laser machine?

Precision tissue removal: Creates controlled micro-ablative columns (MTZs) with adjustable depth and spacing.

Collagen remodeling: Triggers long-term collagen and elastin regeneration through thermal stimulation.

Faster healing: Untreated surrounding skin accelerates re-epithelialization and reduces downtime.

Customizable parameters: Clinicians can adjust fluence, pulse duration, and density to suit different indications and skin types.

Proven clinical outcomes: Effective for scars, wrinkles, pigmentation irregularities, and overall skin texture improvement.

▶ Who is a good candidate for fractional CO₂ laser treatment?

This treatment is suitable for individuals with:

* Fine lines and wrinkles due to aging or sun damage

* Acne scars or surgical scars

* Uneven skin tone and texture

* Stretch marks or enlarged pores

* Mild to moderate skin laxity

Ideal candidates are those with fair to medium skin tones, realistic expectations, and the ability to follow pre- and post-treatment care. Darker skin types may require adjusted settings to reduce the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

▶ How much does a fractional CO₂ laser cost?

Fractional CO₂ laser prices vary widely, depending on brand, clinical performance, and included features. Some low-end fractional CO₂ lasers can cost as little as $500 or even less, while high-end systems can cost as much as $60,000-$120,000. Well-known CO₂ laser brands, such as Lumenis (AcuPulse™) and DEKA (SmartXide²), maintain the same core technology—fractional CO₂ laser skin resurfacing—across multiple platforms. For some clinics and salons, the price of machines from major brands can be prohibitive.

We offer a more cost-effective alternative, providing the same essential clinical features, including adjustable energy, customizable scan patterns, and precise temperature control, at a more affordable price. Our fractional CO₂ systems are designed for clinics and distributors worldwide who demand high performance without the added cost.
