Helix co2 Laser

The Helix CO2 laser is a next-generation skin resurfacing technology that combines ablative (CO2) and non-ablative wavelengths. Unlike traditional lasers that vaporize the entire surface layer, Helix uses fractional energy to target microscopic columns of skin. This allows the device to protects surrounding tissue, significantly reducing the standard 2-week downtime to just a few days while maximizing collagen production.

The Helix system at SkinMD Michigan allows for precise adjustments based on your individual skin concerns and available recovery time. Because the device utilizes two distinct laser energies, our providers can prioritize different settings depending on the depth of the skin issue. This level of control ensures that the treatment is calibrated to your specific clinical needs rather than following a generic protocol.

Faqs

  • How long is the recovery for Helix CO2?

    A non-ablative laser is able to target and resurface the skin without physical injury to the skin. An even distribution of thermal energy is placed onto the dermis of the skin, but spares the outermost layer of the skin

  • Is Helix CO2 safe for all skin types?

    The Helix system’s dual-wavelength versatility allows our practitioners at SkinMD Michigan to customize settings for various skin tones, though a consultation is required to ensure the safest parameters for deeper pigments.

  • When will I see results?

    Immediate brightening is often visible once the initial redness fades (7–10 days), with significant remodeling of wrinkles and scars appearing over 3 to 6 months as new collagen forms.
