You might be considering laser resurfacing, especially after trying various over-the-counter creams and treatments. These generic treatments often don’t produce the desired results, but with laser resurfacing, you can quickly restore your skin’s former radiance.*
Laser therapy is a revolutionary skin resurfacing treatment that can dramatically improve the appearance of skin and slow the signs of aging.* The MiXto Fractional CO2 laser is a skin rejuvenation therapy that delivers a therapeutic matrix of tiny beams of light energy (each about the size of a hair) to the top and middle layers of the skin.
CO2 Laser Resurfacing can be used to treat the following skin concerns:
Resurface your skin.
Reduce age and sun spots.
Soften fine lines and wrinkles.
Improve acne scars.
After treatment your skin will heal, replacing old layers of skin with beautiful new skin for a completely rejuvenated appearance.*
If you are curious about whether or not your specific skin concern can be effectively treated with CO2 Laser Resurfacing, schedule an initial consultation with Dr. Ayoub in Omaha, NE.
In order to find out if you are a good candidate for laser resurfacing, the first thing you should do is make an appointment to visit Dr. Ayoub for an initial one-on-one consultation.
CO2 Laser Resurfacing is a non-surgical, versatile treatment that is used to stimulate collagen and improve the texture of the skin to provide patients with long-lasting results.
In general, you are considered a good candidate for CO2 Laser Resurfacing if you are experiencing facial skin imperfections, such as:

The laser beam works on the top layers of skin to reveal an even skin tone and generally tighten the skin. Below the surface, the laser’s light expands under the skin to stimulate new collagen production across the entire area, which improves skin’s laxity over time. Dr. Ayoub has selected the MiXto Fractional CO2 laser because it:

Good skin care is essential for optimal treatment, so we suggest starting on a good skin care routine with a cleanser, toner, and exfoliating polish prior to therapy. This regimen should not only be applied to the face but other treatment areas such as the:
Typically a single procedure gives satisfying results, but you could have additional treatment 8-weeks after the first, if desired.
Dr. Ayoub is the absolute best! I had a mommy makeover (breast lift & tummy tuck) done almost a year back and I could not be happier with the results! His work boosted my confidence tremendously and I would trust him again in a heartbeat. His team is equally kind and attentive. I could not be more satisfied with my experience with them. Thank you, Dr. Ayoub and team!

Before you begin treatment with CO2 Laser Resurfacing, it is important that you visit Dr. Ayoub at Westfield Plastic Surgery Center in Omaha for an initial consultation. During this first visit, Dr. Ayoub will examine the areas you would like to have treated, he will listen as you explain your desired results, and he will talk to you about your overall health history.
Once he determines that CO2 Laser Resurfacing is an ideal treatment for your skin concerns, the two of you will work together to develop a treatment plan to suit your needs and schedule, and ultimately help you achieve the results you deserve.
Your recovery after laser resurfacing will take 7-10 days, depending on the skin concern that was treated. Dr. Ayoub will provide you with a special recovery kit that will contain creams and lotions that should be applied liberally to the treated area for the first few days after your treatment.
About 3-4 days after your procedure, the top layer of the treated skin will begin to peel during your normal washing routine. As this continues, your new, rejuvenated skin will begin to emerge.
Potential side effects of laser resurfacing include:
The skin will be new and fresh, so sunscreen SPF 50 should be worn every day. Continuation of the good skin care regimen, perhaps with the addition of other products to enhance skin brightening, may be recommended. The skin will continue to show a reduction of fine lines and wrinkles over the next 6-months as new collagen is produced.*
