When most people hear “CO₂ laser,” they think of aggressive resurfacing, significant downtime, and weeks of healing. Traditional CO₂ lasers are powerful and effective, but they are not always the right fit for every lifestyle, skin type, or goal.
Traditional CO₂ resurfacing removes layers of skin in a single, intense treatment. While results can be dramatic, the tradeoff is prolonged redness, swelling, risk of pigment changes, and extended recovery time that often requires stepping away from daily life.
At VOXY, we use the HELIX Laser, an advanced CO₂ technology designed to deliver controlled resurfacing with far greater precision. HELIX allows us to customize depth, intensity, and treatment pattern so we can address fine lines, texture, sun damage, scars, and skin laxity while supporting healthier healing and more predictable outcomes.
Unlike traditional CO₂ treatments, HELIX can be tailored for everything from lighter rejuvenation with minimal downtime to deeper resurfacing when appropriate. This flexibility allows us to match the treatment to your skin, not force your skin to recover from a one-size-fits-all approach.
The difference is not just the technology. It is the philosophy behind it. We prioritize skin integrity, long-term collagen health, and results that evolve naturally rather than aggressively.
If you are researching CO₂ laser resurfacing in Northwest Arkansas, understanding the difference between traditional CO₂ and modern platforms like HELIX matters. The right approach is the one that respects your skin and your life.
