Abstrakt: Resurfacing denotes mechanical, chemical or physical removal of the superficial layers of aging skin, after which collagenesis is reactivated with improved epidermal architecture as a result. CO2 laser resurfacing is a modern technique for the treatment of skin aging. With CO2 laser resurfacing it is possible to perform accurate ablation of layers of the skin. Besides the cosmetic indications, this technique is a good treatment modality for a broad spectrum of dermatological diseases.
