CO2 laser resurfacing uses an ablative CO2 laser to precisely remove thin layers of skin. At Louave in Cheongdam, Gangnam, the N-Pulse CO2 laser is used to remove benign lesions such as moles, warts, seborrhoeic keratoses (age spots) and milia, and for targeted resurfacing. A board-certified dermatologist checks every lesion first and may recommend a biopsy if needed.

How CO2 Laser Resurfacing works
The CO2 laser vaporises tissue with high precision, layer by layer, while sealing small blood vessels. This allows small growths to be removed with minimal bleeding and controlled depth.
What CO2 Laser Resurfacing can help with
- Moles (after assessment)
- Warts
- Seborrhoeic keratoses
- Milia
- Syringomas
- Small skin growths
Who it may not suit: Lesions with suspicious features, which need dermatologist assessment and possibly biopsy first; people with active infection or who are pregnant.
The CO2 Laser Resurfacing process at Louave
Consultation
A board-certified dermatologist examines your skin and confirms CO2 Laser Resurfacing is right for you.
Preparation
The dermatologist examines each lesion; numbing cream or local anaesthetic is used.
Treatment
Each spot is removed precisely; you feel little thanks to numbing.
Aftercare
Small scabs form and usually fall off within about one to two weeks. Keep areas clean, use the recommended ointment and protect from the sun.

CO2 Laser Resurfacing FAQ
Is mole removal with CO2 laser safe?
Yes, for moles confirmed benign by a dermatologist. Any mole with suspicious features is assessed first and may be biopsied instead.
Will it leave a scar?
Most small lesions heal with minimal marks, though some pinkness or a small mark can remain. Results depend on depth and size.
How long until the scabs fall off?
Usually around one to two weeks, depending on the size and location of each spot.
Can I remove several spots in one session?
Often yes; your dermatologist will advise based on the number and type of lesions.
