Micro - Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing
The new gold standard in skin resurfacing that is safe for most skin types delivering dramatic ablative clinical results with minimal discomfort:
- #1 Antiaging Breakthrough according to WebMD
- Outperforms any non-CO2 based laser and device
- Powerfully reverses 5-10 years of skin aging, wrinkles, sun spots
- Dramatically reduces old acne and trauma related scarring
- Significantly minimizes risk of future development of skin cancers
- Effectively decreases dyschromia such as freckles and melasma
Dr. William Ting is one of the nationally recognized experts in Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing drawing patients all over the Bay Area, California and beyond, having had extensive clinical experience in treating virtually all skin types and various indications such as acne scarring, rejuvenation, and chemoprevention of skin cancer. He utilizes a team approach in customizing detailed pre-op and post-op care regimen to optimize the efficacy and tolerability of Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing.
The old CO2 Laser Resurfacing had been the gold standard in skin resurfacing for the past couple decades as it achieved unparallel smoothness and reduction of wrinkle that no other modality can match. However, it has fallen out of favor because of significant pain requiring general anesthesia and substantial down time with the complexion appearing bloody raw for at least couple weeks.
The FRACTIONAL technology delivers the CO2 laser energy in a pixel like fashion where microscopic holes 0.3mm are punched into the skin right next to each other via computer-generated pattern. This fractionated CO2 laser technology delivers microscopic columns of 10600nm CO2 laser energy across the skin barrier, penetrating 20% of skin surface area right next to each other. The other 80% of non-ablated skin surface areas facilitate faster healing. Fraxel Restore, Pixel, and Pearl lasers have the right idea of fractionated laser delivery but with the wrong wavelengths thus requiring 5-6 treatments and inferior clinical outcome compared with ONE treatment of fractional CO2 laser technology. A recent study confirmed that the fractional CO2 deep dermal ablation resulted in collagen remodeling for at least three months after treatment, as determined by immunohistochemical analysis of heat shock proteins.

Dr. William Ting is expertly trained by Dr. Jeffrey Klein (who invented tumescent liposuction) in the art and sciences of lipo-sculpturing of the neck, upper arms, chest (breast reduction for men), abdomen, flanks (love handles), back rolls, hips, thighs and knees. Dr. Ting's distinguished skill in tumescent liposuction is recognized by LIPOSUCTION.COM (the premiere online patient resource for liposuction) where he is one of the very few liposuction surgeons profiled in the Tri-Valley area.
Skin Care Product Center Photodynamic Therapy for Acne Dr. Ting has treated more than 2000 patients with Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) for acne and other indications for the past couple years. PDT has become a great alternative for patients who wants to augment their conventional therapies of oral antibiotics and topical medicated creams and to avoid Accutane. Dr. Ting has the experience to precisely prescribe the appropriate mix of incubation time (duration of Levulan application on face) and exposure time (duration of a blue light source exposure) to maximize the clinical results and minimize discomfort.

Please take time to browse through our state-of-the-art online skin care product center, offering comprenhensive lines of virtually ALL well-known over the counter skin care products at competitive pricing

PDT works through photochemical reaction between Levulan (naturally-occurring break down compound of red blood cell) and a blue light source (~410nm wavelength) which
