CO2 laser resurfacing is not as effective as dermabrasion, chemabrasion, and deep chemical peel for the prophylaxis of actinic keratoses and basal cell cancers, especially in Fitzpatrick type I and II patients.

It is possible with skin preconditioning, LACA, and occlusive wound healing to provide for a wound healing environment that blends in areas of hypopigmentation that have developed after previous skin resurfacing.

It was possible with fat augmentation and/or laser resurfacing to generate a pleasing lip in type 1 and 2 lips. Lip type 3 required a lip advancement along with fat augmentation and laser resurfacing. Lip tattooing accentuated all the lip types.

We call this modified tumescent liposuction.
