Webinar:Â CO2 Ablative Laser Treatments
Mastering the Gold Standard in Skin Resurfacing
Â
As aesthetic medicine shifts back toward skin quality, skin density, and natural bio-rejuvenation, CO2 ablative laser resurfacing remains the undisputed gold standard for skin transformation. While dermal fillers restore lost volume, fractional CO2 lasers target the external canvas vaporizing damaged epidermal layers while delivering controlled thermal energy into the dermis to trigger dramatic, long-term collagen remodeling and skin tightening.
Mastering energy-based devices requires far more than following manufacturer presets; it demands a deep understanding of laser physics, tissue interaction, and clinical critical thinking. From selecting safe density and energy parameters to navigating off-face treatments and high-risk skin types, knowing how to tailor settings to each patient is the key to achieving transformative results while avoiding severe adverse events.
Join aesthetic medicine’s trusted educators Dr. Gideon Kwok, DO and Lori Robertson, FNP-C for a comprehensive webinar and masterclass focused on the science, settings, and hands-on execution of fractional CO2 laser resurfacing. You’ll learn evidence-based protocols, parameter testing strategies, and safety guidelines that will empower you to confidently integrate advanced skin resurfacing into your practice.

📢 We will cover:
Â
✔ Laser Physics & The Target Chromophore: Understand the physics of the 10,600 nm infrared wavelength and why its target chromophore—water—makes CO2 a color-blind energy source. Learn how controlled thermal energy vaporizes the epidermis while heating the mid-dermis to stimulate long-lasting neocollagenesis.
✔ Fractional vs. Fully Ablative Nuances: Discover the crucial distinction between full-field ablation and fractional "spray mode" technology. Master how creating microscopic thermal treatment columns leaves surrounding tissue intact, accelerating re-epithelialization while minimizing downtime and hyperpigmentation risks.
✔ Dialing In Settings & Tongue Depressor Testing: Stop relying blindly on vendor pre-sets. Learn the step-by-step method for testing watts, energy (mJ), density, and pulse duration on tongue depressors to analyze spot patterns and safely customize treatments for fine lines, deep rhytides, and acne scars.
✔ Fitzpatrick Considerations & PIH Prophylaxis: Navigate patient selection across Fitzpatrick skin types I–VI. Learn essential pre-treatment protocols for Fitzpatrick types III–VI using prophylactic pigment inhibitors (hydroquinone or non-HQ) to downregulate melanocytes and prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
✔ Off-Face & Body Resurfacing Protocols: Understand why off-face areas like the neck, chest, and hands require lighter settings, reduced density, and modified expectations due to lower vascularity and fewer adnexal structures. Discover strategic combination approaches that blend deep perioral treatment with lighter full-face and neck passes.
âś” Patient Comfort, Aftercare & Preventing Complications: Prioritize patient safety and comfort with advanced numbing strategies, dental blocks, and non-opioid pain management options like Journavax. Master post-procedure protocols including prophylactic antivirals for HSV, avoiding Aquafor-induced contact dermatitis, and using extracellular matrix repair creams or Vaseline to optimize wound healing.
Whether you are looking to introduce fractional CO2 laser resurfacing to your practice or refine your clinical parameters for complex scars and delicate off-face areas, this training is your guide to safer, more effective complete skin rejuvenation.
