There’s a reason your favorite red-carpet regulars seem to age in reverse. It’s not just good genes or flattering lighting—it’s high-performance skin treatments that work beneath the surface. CO2 laser resurfacing is one of Hollywood’s best-kept secrets, and it’s gaining traction among those who want dramatic results without going under the knife. At NewEra Medical Aesthetics in Vienna, VA, our advanced CO2 laser treatments offer the same level of refinement celebrities rely on to keep their skin smooth, clear, and glowing.
What Exactly Is CO2 Laser?
CO2 laser resurfacing is a powerful skin rejuvenation procedure that uses a fractional carbon dioxide laser to remove damaged skin, stimulate collagen production, and improve overall tone and texture. It targets the deeper layers where skin renewal really happens—making it especially effective for concerns like:
- Deep wrinkles and fine lines
- Acne scars and surgical scars
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Enlarged pores
- Sun damage and age spots
- Hyperpigmentation and melasma
This treatment resurfaces the skin by creating micro-channels that prompt the body’s natural healing response, revealing smoother, firmer, more radiant skin.
Why Celebrities Swear by It
So, what makes CO2 laser so popular in celebrity circles? One word: results. Unlike surface-level treatments, CO2 laser goes deep enough to address multiple signs of aging at once—often in a single session.
Here’s why stars and skin experts keep it on speed dial:
- Dramatic skin tightening without surgery
- Smoother texture and refined pores
- Clearer, brighter tone with reduced pigmentation
- Visible scar reduction for acne and surgical scars
- Collagen stimulation that continues for months post-treatment
The downtime is real (usually 5–10 days), but for those willing to plan ahead, the payoff is worth it.

Who Should Consider CO2 Laser?
CO2 laser is ideal for adults looking to address deeper skin concerns that topical products or milder treatments can’t fully resolve. That includes:
- Those with sun-damaged, rough, or weathered skin
- Clients frustrated by acne scarring
- Adults noticing laxity and fine lines creeping in
- Individuals with uneven skin tone, large pores, or pigmentation issues
- People seeking skin tightening and resurfacing without surgery
Pro tip: This treatment isn’t just corrective—it’s preventative. Many younger patients are opting for CO2 laser as part of their long-term anti aging and skin health plan.
CO2 Laser vs. Other Skin Resurfacing Options
With so many lasers out there, it can be hard to know which one is right for you. Here’s how CO2 laser stacks up:
- Compared to chemical peels: Deeper, longer-lasting results
- Compared to microneedling: More intensive collagen remodeling
- Compared to IPL: Better for texture, scarring, and wrinkles
- Compared to Erbium lasers: Greater depth for more dramatic changes
While lighter treatments have their place, CO2 laser is a go-to when you’re ready for a bigger shift in your skin’s health and appearance.
