What is Laser COâ‚‚ Resurfacing?
Laser COâ‚‚ resurfacing is a clinically proven treatment used to improve skin tone, texture, and overall appearance. At La Belle Forme in Glasgow, we use fractional COâ‚‚ laser technology to create microscopic channels in the skin. This stimulates collagen production and promotes the renewal of healthier, smoother skin.
It’s particularly effective for addressing concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, acne scarring, enlarged pores, and uneven pigmentation. The procedure can be tailored to treat specific areas such as the face, neck, chest, or hands.
The treatment is performed in our CQC-registered clinic by experienced medical practitioners, ensuring safety and precision.
What Happens During Treatment?
Your journey begins with a detailed consultation to assess your skin type, medical history, and treatment goals. A patch test may be performed to ensure the laser is suitable for your skin.
On the day of your treatment, a topical anaesthetic is applied to the area to minimise discomfort. The COâ‚‚ laser device is then passed over the skin, delivering controlled energy in a grid-like pattern. You may feel a warm or tingling sensation during the procedure.
Following treatment, the skin may feel sensitive and appear red or swollen—this is a normal part of the healing process and typically settles over the following days.
Is This Treatment Right For Me?
Laser COâ‚‚ resurfacing may be suitable if you:
- Have visible signs of ageing such as fine lines or uneven texture
- Want to improve the appearance of acne scars or sun-damaged skin
- Are looking for long-term improvements in skin tone and elasticity
- This treatment is generally best for lighter skin tones and may not be recommended for individuals with certain skin conditions or darker complexions. Our team will conduct a full skin assessment and patch test to determine suitability.
- Reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scarring
- Improved skin texture, clarity, and tone
- Stimulated collagen production for long-term rejuvenation
- Performed in a clinical setting by experienced professionals
As with any aesthetic procedure, laser resurfacing may carry potential risks, including:
- Redness, swelling or sensitivity for several days
- Temporary crusting or peeling of the skin
- Changes in pigmentation (especially for darker skin types)
- Rare chance of infection or prolonged healing
- All potential side effects will be discussed during your consultation, and full aftercare guidance is provided.

FAQ's
You may notice initial improvements in skin texture within a week, with continued improvements over the following 4–8 weeks as collagen production increases.
A topical anaesthetic is used to minimise discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as warm or tingling during treatment and a mild sunburn feeling afterwards.
You should avoid wearing makeup until your skin has fully healed—typically 7–10 days. Our team will guide you on when and how to reintroduce skincare and cosmetics.
Results vary, but many patients enjoy long-term improvements in skin quality. Maintenance treatments and a good skincare routine can help prolong your results.
For some patients, a single session is enough to achieve desired results. Others may benefit from multiple sessions spaced several months apart, depending on the depth of skin concern.
