Abstract
CO2 laser technology has been around for quite some time; however, with the advent of ultrapulse technology, CO2 laser resurfacing became a safe and effective for facial rhytids. The main downside of using the CO2 laser is the extended recovery period. Newer technologies focus on minimal downtime. With the multitude of new technologies, the patient and physician now have more options from which to choose, depending on the desired effect and available window and tolerance for recovery.
