Conveniently located to serve Maui.
CO2Laser Resurfacing
Uneven skin texture, fine lines, and sun damage can make your skin feel older than it should. If you’re looking for a science-backed solution that renews your skin without surgery, CO2 laser resurfacing in Maui at Awazul Wellness might be what you need. Our team delivers safe, effective treatments that support your skin’s natural repair process through laser technology.
What Is CO2 Laser Resurfacing?
CO2 laser resurfacing uses focused beams of light to remove layers of damaged skin precisely. This process activates your body’s natural healing response, promoting collagen production and revealing smoother, tighter, healthier-looking skin beneath. It reduces wrinkles, roughness, and other signs of aging.
Laser resurfacing targets skin concerns with a high degree of precision without surgery. The skin care team at Awazul Wellness is highly regarded for their expertise when performing CO2 laser resurfacing in Maui.
Who Is the Right Candidate for CO2 Laser Resurfacing?
Laser resurfacing treatments can achieve impressive results, both aesthetically and therapeutically. They are appropriate for patients with light to medium skin tones.
CO2 laser resurfacing treatments can improve the following:
- Non-cancerous, cancerous, and pre-cancerous lesions
- Mild to moderate trauma scars
- Age spots and sun damage
- Mild to moderate wrinkles
- Common viral warts
- Benign brownish skin lesions
- Plaque psoriasis lesions
- Melasma (patches of discoloration)
- Enlarged or congested pores
- Mild to moderate acne scars
- Uneven pigmentation
Patients with active acne flare-ups or areas of broken skin may need to delay treatment. Patients must have realistic expectations; more than one session may be required to achieve the desired goal.
A consultation for CO2 laser resurfacing at Awazul Wellness will be necessary to review the patient’s medical history and examine their skin. It will ensure that they are ideal candidates for treatment. During this consultation, patients are encouraged to ask any questions.
What to Expect During CO2Laser Resurfacing
The treatment areas will be swabbed with an antiseptic, and patients will be given protective goggles. A local anesthetic will numb the treatment areas; sedation may also be used in more complex cases.
Once the anesthetic has taken effect, laser therapy will begin. The CO2 laser resurfacing device is then applied to target specific areas, removing outer layers and stimulating new tissue growth. The feeling of the laser beam pulses has been compared to the sensation of a mild rubber band snap. The whole treatment process is typically less than two hours.
What to Expect After CO2Laser Resurfacing
Following CO2 laser resurfacing, around two weeks of recovery time will be required. Redness, swelling, and skin irritation comparable to a mild sunburn may be experienced for a week to ten days. Peeling may occur as new skin begins to form. Most clients recover within 7–10 days, but full results develop over several weeks as your skin improves. You’ll be given an aftercare skin care regimen to support healing and minimize the risk of complications.
The temporary after-effects following treatment are usually tolerated with ice packs, cool compresses, and non-prescription pain medication. It is essential to follow all instructions regarding activities, skin care products, sun exposure, and hot showers/baths.

Questions& Answers
How Does CO2 Laser Resurfacing Work?
During CO2 (carbon dioxide) laser resurfacing treatments, pulses of laser energy are absorbed by water stored in skin cells, vaporizing the cells. This removes the superficial layers of the skin (the epidermis) and reveals the undamaged skin cells below them. As a result, creases, sun spots, and other complexion anomalies are improved or eliminated.
How long is the recovery time?
Most people need about 7–10 days of downtime as the skin heals and peels. Redness may linger for a few weeks but gradually fades over time.
Does the treatment hurt?
A topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure. Most clients describe the feeling as a warm or prickly sensation.
When will I see the results?
Once the peeling phase ends, initial improvements will be visible within a week. Full results continue to develop over several months as collagen production increases.
How long do the results last?
With proper skin care and sun protection, results can last for years. Depending on your skin goals, maintenance treatments may be recommended.
Is CO2 laser resurfacing safe for all skin types?
It’s generally best suited for lighter skin tones, as darker skin has a higher risk of pigmentation issues. A consultation with our providers at Awazul Wellness will help determine the safest and most effective option for your skin.
