Working Theory
The wavelength of CO2 laser is 10.6μm, which can be fully absorbed by human biology tissue (all the skin are
available). The sealed-off fractional CO2 laser, whose output laser-light will be transferred by articulated
arm, which has better sense of direction and higher energy density.
The CO2 laser operates in the invisible infrared waveband, and an aiming beam is required to see where the
treatment beam will impact tissue more recently from a visible red diode laser. When the laser beam go
through the focus lens, the produced heat will gasify the target tissue.
With fractional laser resurfacing the laser beam is broken up or fractionated into many small micro beams
which are separated so that when they strike the skin surface small areas of the skin between the beams are
not hit by the laser and left intact. These small areas of untreated skin promote a much more rapid recovery
and healing with less risk of complications. The small areas treated by the fractional micro beams, called
micro treatment zones, cause sufficient laser injury to promote new collagen production and resultant facial
skin rejuvenation.
