What Is CO₂ Laser
and How Does It Work?
The latest Candela CORE laser, which is ideal for such procedures, is used for the careful and delicate removal of warts and benign skin growths.
Laser removal of warts is less traumatic and provides optimal results. Your skin will fully recover within a few days. This is a quick, well-tolerated procedure that is used quite often due to its good cosmetic results. Usually, benign growths such as warts, verrucas, papillomas, and keratomas are removed with a laser.
Laser removal of warts gives amazing results as in most cases it leaves no traces or scars, and in other cases only minor changes are observed.
This is especially important if the growth is removed from the face, hands, or feet. Laser removal of warts is a very quick procedure that in most cases does not require painkillers.
How Does the Procedure Work?
A small amount of local anaesthetic is applied to the treatment area to ensure maximum comfort throughout the procedure. Once the area is fully numbed, the laser treatment is performed with minimal sensation and without significant discomfort.
A topical or injectable local anaesthetic is applied to ensure complete comfort and zero pain throughout the session.
The Candela CO2RE laser targets only the selected wart tissue with exceptional precision. The laser energy is absorbed by water within the cells, leading to controlled evaporation layer by layer — removing approximately 30–50 microns at a time.
Advanced technology allows the practitioner to tailor the procedure to each case while maintaining optimal healing conditions and maximum tissue preservation.

Recovery & Aftercare
After laser removal of a neoplasm, it is necessary to protect the skin from sunlight, or more precisely, from ultraviolet rays. This means that even on a cloudy day, the skin needs high-quality protection. It is very important to protect this area from ultraviolet rays for at least 2 months.
This is important for exposed parts of the body, and especially important for the face and neck. You should also avoid using cosmetics until the wound has completely healed. Facial skin recovery usually takes about 5–7 days or slightly longer.
Recovery is very similar to scar healing: at first it looks like a wound, then after several days a protective crust forms over the treated area. This crust is a normal part of the healing process and must not be touched, scratched, or removed manually. It will naturally fall off on its own, usually within approximately 5–7 days.
To support proper healing and achieve the best aesthetic result, it is essential to regularly apply the professional aftercare cream provided by the clinic. The treated area should remain continuously moisturised during the healing period.
Sometimes the surface of the treated skin may be uneven compared to the surrounding skin, or it may be slightly raised above the skin surface or slightly hollow, but this will normalise over time. Do not rub or scratch the treated area, as this may cause local inflammation and infection.
Sun protection is essential. Apply SPF 50+ every day for a minimum of 2 months following treatment, even on overcast days.
