At Athena MedSpa and Ablavsky Plastic Surgery in San Antonio, we often recommend CO2 laser resurfacing as part of a comprehensive surgical plan. By addressing both skin texture and structural changes in a single treatment window, patients can achieve more dramatic and longer-lasting results, without adding significant downtime.
Facial Aesthetic Surgery + CO2 Laser
Procedures like facelift and neck lift surgery, brow lifts, and eyelid surgeries remove excess skin, and reposition and tighten underlying tissues, but they don’t directly improve the skin’s surface. Adding CO2 laser resurfacing to your facial plastic surgery can:
- Smooth fine lines and deeper wrinkles
- Improve skin elasticity and firmness
- Reduce sun damage and age spots
- Blend surgical incisions with surrounding skin texture for a more natural appearance
These combination procedures create a more youthful, refreshed look—improving both what’s under the skin and what’s on top.
Body Contouring Surgery + CO2 Laser
If you’re planning to have a tummy tuck, liposuction, thigh lift, or arm lift, you’re expecting some downtime. Adding CO2 laser resurfacing during the same surgical window is an efficient way to:
- Treat sun damage or pigmentation on the face, neck, chest, or hands
- Address acne scars or stretch marks in targeted areas
- Boost collagen production for improved skin tone and firmness
Since you’re already taking time out for recovery fo your body contouring procedure, the downtime needed for a CO2 laser treatment will overlap—meaning you won’t need to take extra time off for a separate laser appointment.
Why It Makes Sense To Combine Treatments
- One downtime period instead of two
- Cost efficiency when packaged together
- Comprehensive rejuvenation from the inside out
- Earlier visible results for both skin and body
The Athena MedSpa Advantage
