Direct Answer
CO2RE® is a fractional CO2 laser system developed by Candela that uses a radiofrequency-excited metal-alloy laser source and digital scanning technology to precisely control energy intensity, fractional density, pattern shape, and ablation depth on a single platform. The system offers four fractional ablative modes (Light, Mid, Deep, Fusion) plus a traditional resurfacing mode, with ablation depths ranging from 20 microns (stratum corneum brightening) to 500–700 microns (deep scar and wrinkle improvement), and a minimum pulse width of just 2 microseconds that helps reduce thermal damage to surrounding tissue and shorten recovery. Its Fusion mode treats both the epidermis and dermis simultaneously, stimulating new collagen production and improving skin texture in a single session. At ID Cosmetic Clinic in Markham/Toronto, Dr. Dan Xu (MD, CCFP) can combine an understanding of Asian facial structure with your individual skin condition to design a personalized CO2RE treatment plan.

What is the CO2RE System?
The CO2RE system is the first integrated CO2 laser device to receive over 100 indication clearances across 10 medical fields, including dermatology, plastic surgery, and gynecology.
Imagine a device designed specifically for a variety of procedures involving excision, incision, ablation, coagulation, and soft tissue reshaping. CO2RE can precisely target and effectively treat the skin.
Advantages of CO2RE CO2 Fractional Laser Technology
CO2RE innovation: variable treatment modes. The CO2RE system offers six different treatment modes, including four fractional ablative treatment modes, five pattern shapes, one traditional resurfacing mode, and a small skin excision mode that includes both defined shapes and a freehand approach.
The CO2RE system can simultaneously and precisely control intensity, pattern, and ablation depth on a single platform, treating both superficial and deep skin layers with precision. You’ll also experience the versatility of three modules—Aesthetic, Surgical, and Intima.
It can achieve:
- Treating multiple skin layers in a single session
- Performing both full and partial resurfacing
- Enhanced coagulation
- Stimulating new collagen production
