Laser Treatment Q & A
The DEKA DOT CO2 laser is an ablative fractionated laser tool the team at Dana Point Dermatology uses to rejuvenate your skin.Â
Unlike other types of skin laser treatments, the DEKA DOT CO2 laser doesn’t remove the top layer of your skin and allows for a faster recovery than other skin laser treatments. Â
The heat produced by the laser creates microscopic perforations in the surface of your skin, which stimulates collagen production to improve strength and elasticity. The laser also tightens the skin and improves tone and texture.
The aesthetic experts at Dana Point Dermatology determine if you’re a good candidate for DEKA DOT CO2 laser during a consultation. The team uses the advanced laser tool to treat many common skin concerns, including:
- Lines and wrinkles
- Sun spots
- Acne scars
The laser is also safe to use on different areas of your body, including your face, neck, and hands.
The team at Dana Point Dermatology performs your DEKA DOT CO2 laser treatment at the office. After your clinician has cleaned your skin with an antibacterial agent, your laser therapy begins.Â
You will feel a warm, heat sensation during treatment, but treatment is generally well-tolerated. If you’re sensitive to pain, be sure to let the team know so they can make adjustments to your treatment plan. We offer Pro-Nox analgesic gas at no additional charge for enhanced patient comfort and an overall better patient experience.
The length of your laser therapy may depend on the area being treated, but shouldn’t take longer than 30 minutes.
After your session, your skin may be red and feel like a sunburn, which you can ease with a cold compress and fan. The team may suggest some downtime following your session as your skin heals.Â
It’s possible you may only need one treatment with the DEKA DOT CO2 laser to get your desired results. However, the team may suggest a series of treatments depending on your ultimate aesthetic goals.
You may start to notice an improvement in your skin soon after your laser session, with continued improvements over the next several weeks.

What to Expect During Pulsed Dye Laser Treatment
Experience your pulsed dye laser treatment in the comfort of our office at Dana Point Dermatology. Before beginning treatment, your clinician provides protective eyewear for your safety. Depending on your sensitivity, a topical anesthetic may be applied. The laser is then applied to the treatment area, with sensations typically likened to a mild sunburn.

Following your session, the treated area may be cooled with ice. Most patients observe results over the following 1-2 weeks after treatment, suitable for all skin types. Simple follow-up care includes applying moisturizer and diligent use of sunscreen to protect against potential pigmentary changes.
