Fractional CO₂ Laser

Fractional CO₂ is the most powerful tool for scar revision and skin resurfacing. Used skilfully on Indian skin — at the right density and depth — it delivers significant texture improvement without the older "ablative" downtime. We use the Fraxis Duo platform, which combines fractional CO₂ with microneedle radiofrequency on a single device for sequenced or combined protocols.
