Carbon dioxide lasers, or CO2 lasers, essentially use a mixture of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and helium to produce specific laser wavelengths. These wavelengths allow for penetration of the top layer of the skin. The laser enters the dermis and microscopically damages specific areas of the skin. This facilitates the production of new collagen and epidermal growth to replace the damaged cells.  These CO2 lasers are extremely versatile, and treat a wide range of skin conditions.
