"The technology behind eCO2 fills a niche we've been trying to fill for years, in that patients experience dramatically better results and more rapid post-treatment healing than with the old ablative techniques."
- Mark G. Rubin, M.D. Assistant Clinical Professor of Dermatology, University of California San Diego, San Diego, Calif.

The eCO2 from Lutronic, the premium CO2 fractional resurfacing platform, combines versatility and easy-to-use dual mode technology with the deep ablative properties of a CO2 laser system.

With aging, the epidermis thins. The number of melanocytes decreases, but those remaining melanocytes, increase in size. Aging skin thus appears thinner, more translucent. Age spots may appear in sun-exposed areas. Changes in the connective tissue reduce the skin's strength and elasticity. Aging of the skin is associated with progressive atrophy of the dermis, as well as changes in the architectural organization, leading to folds and wrinkles.

Fractional Technology

The eCO2 laser beam heats and vaporizes the skin tissue, instantly removing the superficial layers of the skin. Each fractional micro spot creates a thermal zone. Intact cells around the treated area help during the healing process. This process induces cell regeneration. Immediate tightening and textural improvement is seeing after one week of the procedure.

Wound Healing

When the upper dermis is heated, the natural wound healing process is stimulated. The fibroblasts respond naturally producing collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans generating dermal restructuring. eCO2 combines the 10,600 wavelength, 3 tip options, and depth of penetration from 50 microns to 2.4mm. Using a proprietary laser delivery algorithm, eCO2s Controlled Chaos Technology (CCT) delivers each fractional beam as far away from the previous beam to maximize heat dissipation . This Fractional methodology produces a calculated tissue thermal relaxation time resulting in a faster healing process and less pain.

Results

The result is a smoother, clearer and more youthful appearance of the skin. There is an immediate tightening. Removes sun spots, reduces pore size, wrinkles, acne scars via soft tissue coagulation, and other textural irregularities. There is a progressive improvement of the skin appearance due to the continued collagen production for resulting in added improvements for 6 months following the treatment.

Advanced capabilities and intuitive functionality allow clinicians to deliver customized treatments with dynamic and long-lasting results.
