Our 3-Step Protocol

Step 1:
Deep Fractional Resurfacing

We safely vaporize damaged scar tissue to trigger the production of fresh, tight collagen.

Step 2:
Regenerative Infusion

While the skin's micro-channels are open, we deliver a potent cellular repair serum deep into the dermis to accelerate healing.

Step 3:
The Barrier Shield

We complete the protocol with a deeply cooling clinical mask to soothe the tissue and protect the skin barrier.

Is the Cutera Secret Pro right for you?

What it targets

  • Acne Scars
  • Sun Damage
  • Deep Wrinkles
  • Texture

How it works

  • Erase Deep Acne Scarring

    We don't just treat the surface. The laser safely breaks down stubborn, fibrotic scar tissue deep within the dermis, forcing the skin to rebuild a smooth, flawless canvas from the inside out.

  • Clear Years of Sun Damage

    Effectively lift and vaporize severe hyperpigmentation, age spots, and uneven texture. Reveal a significantly brighter, glass-like complexion in a fraction of the time of standard peels.

  • Restore Structural Firmness

    The intense thermal energy triggers an immediate tissue contraction, followed by a massive surge of fresh collagen. The result? Plumper skin, reduced deep wrinkles, and visible structural tightening.

  • Fractional Precision = Faster Recovery

    Unlike older, highly aggressive CO2 lasers that require weeks of hiding indoors, our fractional technology leaves microscopic zones of healthy tissue intact. You get heavy-hitting clinical results with significantly accelerated healing.

What to Expect During Recovery

Because the Cutera Secret PRO provides medical-grade resurfacing, proper healing is essential to achieve optimal results. While our fractional approach significantly reduces downtime compared to older lasers, you should still anticipate a recovery period.

Days 1-2

Skin will appear red and feel hot or tight, similar to a sunburn. Mild to moderate swelling is completely normal.

Days 3-4

Redness begins to subside. Skin develops a sandpaper-like texture. Early microscopic flaking will occur.

Days 5-7

Active peeling and shedding reveal brighter, smoother skin. Many return to regular activities with light makeup.

Frequently Asked Questions

We prioritize your comfort by applying a medical-grade topical numbing cream prior to your procedure. While you may feel heat and a slight prickling sensation, most patients find the treatment very tolerable. We also utilize deep cooling masks post-treatment to instantly soothe the skin.
Initial improvements in skin tone and brightness are visible as soon as the peeling phase completes (around day 7). However, because the CO2 laser triggers deep cellular remodeling, your body will continue creating new collagen for 3 to 6 months, meaning your results will continue to improve over time.
CO2 laser resurfacing is generally best suited for fair to medium skin tones due to the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. However, the Cutera Secret PRO also features an RF Microneedling modality which is safe for all skin tones. A full clinical assessment with Dr. Victoria is required to determine suitability.
This depends on your specific skin concerns. For mild texture or an anti-aging glow, one session may be sufficient. For deep acne scarring or advanced sun damage, a series of 2 to 3 treatments is often required to achieve optimal structural remodeling.
Consultations at The Regenerative Aesthetics are from £250, during which Dr. Victoria will assess your skin and provide a fully personalised treatment plan with transparent pricing. Treatment costs vary depending on the area treated and the number of sessions recommended. There are no hidden costs and no obligation to proceed following your consultation.
A chemical peel or facial works at the surface of the skin. The Cutera Secret PRO CO2 laser works structurally, penetrating into the dermis to vaporise damaged scar tissue, stimulate collagen synthesis, and physically remodel the skin from within. It produces results that no topical treatment, peel, or salon procedure can replicate. This is also why it must be performed by a qualified physician rather than a beauty therapist, the depth and precision of the treatment requires medical training and clinical judgement.
