Skin Renewal, RefinedWhat Is Fractional CO₂ Laser Resurfacing?
Fractional CO₂ laser resurfacing is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment designed to stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and address concerns such as fine lines, acne scars, and sun damage. At Tru U Esthetix in Franklin, TN, treatments can be customized from lighter resurfacing with minimal downtime to more intensive sessions for deeper skin concerns. Each treatment is tailored to your skin’s needs, desired results, and recovery preferences.
By delivering controlled micro-columns of fractional laser energy, this treatment may help remodel compromised skin layers and can support healthy collagen synthesis over time.
What It May Help Improve
Acne scars and textural irregularities
Fine lines and deeper facial creases
Sun damage and persistent pigmentation
Mild skin laxity and loss of firmness
Enlarged pores and rough surface texture

Customized ResurfacingChoose Your Level of Resurfacing
Fractional CO₂ resurfacing at Tru U Esthetix is offered at two levels, so your treatment can match your skin concerns and how much recovery time you have.
Signature CO₂ Glow Peel
A gentler, lighter resurfacing level that works on the skin’s surface layers.
Dullness, uneven tone, fine lines, mild texture changes and early sun damage.
Lighter recovery. Redness and flaking often last roughly 2 to 3 days.
Precision CO₂ Rejuvenation
A more intensive level that works deeper to support stronger collagen remodeling.
Acne scarring, deeper lines, more visible sun damage, pigmentation and rough texture.
A longer healing period. Redness, swelling and peeling often last 5 to 7 days or more.
Your level, treatment area and settings are chosen together with Marina at your consultation.

What to Expect During Healing
Many clients notice redness, swelling and a sunburn-like sensation in the first 24 to 48 hours.
Pinpoint crusting, bronzing or gentle peeling may follow. Recovery after lighter resurfacing often takes roughly 2 to 3 days, while deeper treatments may take 5 to 7 days or longer.
Because this is a clinical procedure, it helps to plan around important social or work commitments.
Caring for Your Skin
Keep the area clean, apply the soothing or protective products recommended, and avoid picking or scrubbing peeling skin.
Avoid direct sun exposure, then use a daily broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen and gentle hydration once the initial healing phase is complete.
Realistic ResultsResults, Collagen Remodeling & Treatment Frequency
When Results Show
Fresh, smoother-looking skin often becomes apparent once peeling and surface healing finish. Collagen remodeling then continues gradually, so tone and texture may keep improving over several months.
How Many Treatments?
Some clients see meaningful improvement after a single session. Those addressing deeper acne scarring or more advanced texture concerns may benefit from a series planned at consultation. Results vary from person to person and are never guaranteed.
