The CO2 laser is a medical device that uses carbon dioxide to produce high-precision light that vaporizes the superficial layers of the skin. It helps improve skin texture, smooth wrinkles and fine lines, reduce scars and imperfections, eliminate certain benign lesions, and rejuvenate the appearance of the face and eyelids. The CO2 laser can be fractional (gentler, faster recovery) or continuous (more powerful, longer recovery).
The CO2 laser targets skin imperfections by improving skin texture and elasticity, while reducing wrinkles, scars, and superficial lesions. The CO2 laser is indicated for:
The results of the CO2 laser gradually become apparent starting ten days after the procedure, with noticeable improvement, while the optimal and fully visible effect is generally observed after about one month.
Skin and medical history evaluation to confirm laser treatment.
Application of an anesthetic cream to ensure comfort and tolerance during the session.
Successive laser passes to heat, coagulate, and vaporize the skin in a controlled manner.
Balancing Function and Aesthetics
Preserving Authentic Expression
Listening, Explaining, and Reassuring
Offering authentic and respectful medicine means providing each individual with a clear understanding of their condition and treatments. My approach, based on listening, benevolence, and clarity, centers on patient well-being and the preservation of their natural facial expression.
Side effects are rare, transient, and usually benign:
These signs generally disappear within a few hours or a few days after Botox injection at the Lausanne clinic.
The goal is to relax and reduce the activity of facial muscles to soften expression lines while preserving natural mobility. However, a partial reduction in mobility is inevitable.
Botox can be considered as soon as the first expression lines appear, typically between 30 and 35 years of age. It also has a preventive action by reducing the muscular force responsible for wrinkles, which slows their formation while maintaining a natural result.
The main contraindications are:
Generally, injections are performed 2 to 3 times a year. Over time, some muscles relax more permanently, which may reduce the required frequency.
Botox is not measured in syringes, but in units. Depending on the depth of the wrinkles, the strength of the muscles, the treated area, and the desired result, generally between 1 and 5 units are used per injection point. For example, the glabellar line (frown line) usually requires between 12 and 20 units.
