Sun damage, fine lines, and uneven skin texture can make your skin look older than you feel. If creams and serums haven’t delivered the results you’re after, CO2 laser resurfacing may be the solution your skin has been waiting for.
Dr. Carl Hyder and his team of skilled providers deliver physician-guided, technology-forward care at Aesthetic Renewal and Beyond in Cinnaminson, NJ. Treatments are designed to help you achieve real, lasting skin transformation.
What Is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?
CO2 laser resurfacing is a proven skin renewal treatment that uses fractional carbon dioxide laser energy to resurface the skin at a controlled depth. The laser creates microscopic channels in the skin, removing damaged outer layers while stimulating the body’s natural collagen production beneath the surface.
At Aesthetic Renewal and Beyond, we perform CO2 treatments using the Cartessa CO2 laser system, a trusted platform known for its precision and consistent results. Treatments can be customized for the face, neck, and hands.

Am I a Good Candidate?
CO2 laser resurfacing works well for men and women who want meaningful improvement in skin quality but aren’t ready for surgical options. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and are concerned about visible aging or skin damage.
During your consultation, your provider will review your skin type, concerns, and goals to determine whether CO2 resurfacing is the right fit or whether another treatment, such as Virtue RF microneedling or IPL photofacial, may better address your needs.
What to Expect During Treatment
Before your session begins, we apply a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable. The Cartessa CO2 laser is then passed over the treatment area, delivering precise energy to resurface the skin. Treatment time varies depending on the size of the area being addressed.
The fractional approach means only a portion of the skin is treated at a time, leaving surrounding tissue intact to support faster healing.
Recovery and Downtime
CO2 laser resurfacing does involve a recovery period. Expect redness, swelling, and peeling in the days following treatment as the skin heals and renews itself. Most patients take about one to two weeks before returning to their normal routine, though this can vary based on treatment intensity.
Your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions to protect your results and support healing.
What Kind of Results Can You Expect?
As collagen rebuilds in the weeks and months after treatment, you’ll notice continued improvements in skin tone, texture, and firmness. Many patients see significant results after a single session, though your provider may recommend additional treatments depending on your goals.
