Advanced Laser Care.
A core focus of our practice. Modern Dermatology offers CO2 laser resurfacing, vascular and pigment lasers, and laser-based skin rejuvenation by board-certified dermatologists. Expert care for sun damage, scarring, redness, fine lines, and overall skin texture.
CO2 Laser Resurfacing.
Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing is one of our most-performed laser treatments. The CO2 laser delivers controlled, precise energy that resurfaces the outer layers of skin while stimulating new collagen formation in deeper layers. The result is improved skin texture, reduced fine lines, softened acne and surgical scars, and a more even, refreshed complexion.
CO2 Laser Resurfacing
Fractional CO2 resurfacing for fine lines, sun damage, acne and surgical scars, and overall skin texture refinement. One of our most-performed laser treatments.
Vascular Lesions
Excel V+ rapidly clears broken capillaries, cherry angiomas, and facial redness from rosacea by targeting and collapsing overactive blood vessels.
Pigmentary Concerns
Precise targeting of sun spots, age spots, and freckles. The laser energy breaks down excess melanin, which is naturally cleared by the body over the following weeks.
Spider Veins
The deeper Nd:YAG wavelength targets blue and purple spider veins on the legs and ankles that are resistant to other treatments.

Frequently Asked.
What is fractional CO2 laser resurfacing?
Fractional CO2 laser is an ablative resurfacing treatment that delivers controlled energy in a pixelated pattern. It removes damaged outer skin layers and stimulates collagen production deeper in the dermis. CO2 is highly effective for fine lines, sun damage, acne and surgical scars, and overall skin texture.
How long is recovery from CO2 laser?
Recovery depends on the treatment depth. Most patients experience 5 to 7 days of social downtime with redness and peeling, followed by a few weeks of pinkness as new skin matures. We provide detailed aftercare instructions and supportive products.
What does the Excel V+ treat?
The Excel V+ treats redness (rosacea, broken capillaries) and pigmentation (sun spots, freckles, age spots), as well as leg veins. Most patients see meaningful results in 2-3 sessions.
Is laser treatment painful?
For Excel V+, most patients describe the sensation as a quick snap with the sapphire cooling tip making it very tolerable. For CO2 resurfacing, we use topical and local anesthesia for patient comfort.
How many sessions do I need?
Excel V+ typically requires 2 to 3 sessions for comprehensive vascular or pigment clearance. CO2 resurfacing results are often dramatic after a single treatment, with maintenance based on individual goals.
Is laser safe for all skin types?
Both lasers are highly adjustable, and our board-certified dermatologists customize settings for each patient's skin type and concern. A consultation is required to determine the safest, most effective treatment plan.
When will I see results?
Excel V+ vascular results are often immediate; pigment fades over 1-2 weeks. CO2 resurfacing shows initial results as the skin heals over 1-2 weeks, with continued improvement over 3-6 months as new collagen develops.
