Yes and no. This is not a facial or a chemical peel. CO2 laser resurfacing causes improvements in the quality of your skin and wrinkles that are permanent, but over time your skin will continue to age and accumulate more sun damage despite your best efforts. We recommend ongoing treatment and maintenance to keep your skin looking the best not just now, but in the future as well. You should think of the CO2 laser resurfacing as something that will improve your skin now and for the next few months, rather than a facial that makes your skin look better today and you quickly lose your glow and benefits. If you love what CO2 laser resurfacing has done for your skin and want to maintain the maximum glow, then you could repeat the procedure as part of an ongoing skin health regimen to preserve those looks.
