CO2 Laser Resurfacing
If the reflection in the mirror is showing more wrinkles than you think you should have, you may want to consider CO2 laser resurfacing in Chattanooga, TN or the surrounding areas to restore that youthful glow.
What is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?
CO2 laser resurfacing is a highly effective, non-invasive treatment that uses a carbon dioxide laser to remove damaged layers of skin, improving the skin’s texture and appearance. It targets wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and other skin imperfections by stimulating collagen production and encouraging skin regeneration.
During the procedure, the laser emits short pulses of light energy that vaporize the outer layer of skin, while simultaneously heating the deeper layers to promote collagen growth. This results in smoother, more youthful-looking skin with improved tone and texture.
CO2 laser resurfacing is typically performed on the face but can also be used on the neck, chest, or hands. It’s especially effective for treating deep wrinkles, sunspots, and scars, giving you a refreshed, rejuvenated appearance.
If you’re considering CO2 laser resurfacing in Chattanooga, TN, or the surrounding areas, including Kimball, Nashville, and Scottsboro, AL, Dr. Carey Nease offers expert treatments to help you achieve beautiful, long-lasting results.

CO2 Laser Resurfacing Recovey & Aftercare
Proper aftercare is essential to ensure optimal results and a smooth recovery following your CO2 laser resurfacing in Tennessee or Alabama. Follow these six recovery tips to achieve the best outcome:
1
Avoid Sun Exposure
Protect your skin by avoiding direct sunlight for at least 4–6 weeks after treatment. Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher when going outside.
2
Keep Skin Moisturized
Apply a gentle, hydrating moisturizer as recommended by your provider to soothe the treated skin and promote healing.
3
Do Not Pick or Scratch
Allow your skin to heal naturally. Avoid picking at scabs or peeling skin to prevent scarring or irritation.
4
Limit Physical Activity
Avoid strenuous exercise for 1–2 weeks after treatment to prevent increased blood flow to the face, which can cause swelling.

Drink plenty of water to support the healing process and maintain healthy skin hydration.

How Does Laser Skin Resurfacing Work as an Acne Treatment?
Laser skin resurfacing is useful to remove acne scars. It removes the uppermost skin layers taking the scarred skin cells off and revealing new, more youthful skin cells. Studies have shown that acne can be reduced with laser treatments.
While it’s not likely the laser treatments alone will be able to completely clear up an acne outbreak, better results may be obtained when laser treatments are combined with topical acne medicine.

Am I a Good Candidate for Laser Skin Resurfacing?
If you’re a healthy adult without an active acne outbreak or excessively saggy skin, you may be a good candidate for laser skin resurfacing. Best candidates have fine lines, wrinkles, and shallow scars.
During the initial consultation, the doctor will help you make sure your expectations are in alignment with what’s possible and whether laser skin resurfacing is the best option to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. If not, he can help you explore other possibilities that may serve you better.

What is Laser Skin Resurfacing Recovery Like?
Healing after laser skin resurfacing can take from three to ten days, depending on the size of the area treated and the depth of the laser. Ablative laser resurfacing can require a recovery time of up to about three weeks.
