Laser Treatment for Wrinkles:
Laser Therapy with Dr. med. Meike Schröder in Berlin-Zehlendorf
As we age, the skin loses resilience, elasticity, and radiance. Fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, or scars can make the complexion appear tired. Laser treatment with the eCO2 laser at SCHÖNE HAUT offers a highly effective, modern method for visible skin rejuvenation—entirely without surgical intervention.
How eCO2 Laser Treatment Works Against Wrinkles
The fractional eCO2 laser operates using ultra-fine laser pulses that target specific micro-areas of the skin. This process activates the body’s natural regeneration:
The production of collagen and elastin is stimulated, allowing the skin structure to renew itself from the inside out. Older skin cells are resurfaced while healthy surrounding tissue remains protected.
This procedure is particularly well-suited for the sustainable, non-surgical treatment of mild drooping eyelids (hooded eyes) and fine lines around the eyes (crow’s feet).
Frequently Asked Questions
Which skin concerns can be treated with the CO2 laser at your practice?
How does the CO2 laser function?
The laser beam is a high-energy, focused light directed onto the skin. Thanks to the patented technology of the eCO2 system, evenly distributed micro-laser beams with diameters ranging from 0.12 mm to 1 mm are produced. Where the laser light hits, the skin is vaporized point-by-point to a depth of over 1 mm.
The objective is to treat only 10% to a maximum of 20% of the skin surface in each session (Fractional Technology). The surrounding healthy tissue facilitates rapid skin regeneration.
After a few days, the laser-treated points form fine crusts, which are gradually shed within a week. This marks the beginning of the skin’s renewal process. During this time, the skin may appear slightly darker but can easily be covered with makeup.
What is the procedure for CO2 laser treatment at our practice in Berlin?
Following a detailed skin analysis, the treatment is precisely tailored to your needs. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Depending on the intensity, there may be a short recovery time involving redness and crusting—a sign of active skin renewal. Within just a few weeks, the skin appears significantly smoother, firmer, and more refreshed.
Are there side effects with CO2 laser treatment?
When the laser is applied correctly, crusting, redness, and slight swelling are typically observed for approximately 3 to 7 days, along with an initial feeling of warmth and tension. By combining the treatment with exosomes or polynucleotides, we can significantly reduce downtime. Please feel free to ask us about this option.
What are the most important post-treatment measures?
The most crucial steps are consistent sun protection and caring for the treated area with a specialized post-procedure cream.
How many CO2 laser sessions are necessary?
This depends on the individual skin condition and goals, typically 1–3 sessions are recommended for optimal results.
