What is CoolPeel?

CoolPeel is an innovative CO2 laser treatment that uses the Helix Laser to rejuvenate the skin by targeting the superficial layers. This advanced procedure effectively reduces fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, and pore size while promoting collagen production and new skin cell formation. Unlike traditional CO2 treatments, CoolPeel offers minimal downtime and discomfort, allowing patients to resume their daily activities quickly. Ideal for those seeking a refreshed and youthful complexion, CoolPeel delivers impressive results with minimal downtime.

Your CoolPeel journey

Before CoolPeel

  • Schedule a consultation to determine if CoolPeel is suitable for your skin type.
  • Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning for at least two weeks prior to treatment.
  • Discontinue retinoids and other exfoliating agents several days before the procedure.
  • Ensure your skin is clean and free of makeup, lotions, and creams on the day of treatment.
  • Discuss any skin conditions or medications with your practitioner during your consultation.
  • Follow any specific pre-treatment instructions provided by your skincare professional.
  • Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy skincare routine leading up to the treatment.

During CoolPeel

During your CoolPeel treatment, we use the Helix CO2 laser to target the superficial layer of your skin. The procedure takes about 15 to 30 minutes, during which you’ll feel short, controlled bursts of energy. This process gently ablates damaged skin cells, promoting collagen production and new skin growth. You might experience a mild tingling sensation, but discomfort is minimal. The precision of the Helix Laser ensures only the targeted areas are treated, leaving surrounding skin unharmed.

After CoolPeel

  • Apply a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to soothe your skin and aid in healing.
  • Avoid direct sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect the treated area.
  • Refrain from using retinoids, exfoliants, or other harsh skincare products for several days.
  • Keep your skin clean and avoid heavy makeup until any redness or peeling subsides.
  • Expect mild redness and a rough skin texture for a few days, which will gradually improve.
  • Follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner.
  • Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy skincare routine to support your skin’s recovery.

CoolPeel FAQs

How does CoolPeel work?

CoolPeel utilizes advanced Helix CO2 laser technology to deliver controlled, short bursts of energy to the superficial skin layer. These blasts remove damaged skin cells and stimulate the body’s natural healing response, promoting collagen production and the formation of new, healthy skin cells. The targeted approach minimizes thermal damage to surrounding tissues, reducing recovery time. By resurfacing the outer skin layer, CoolPeel effectively addresses fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, and enlarged pores.

What can I expect during the recovery period?

Post-treatment, you may experience mild redness and rough skin texture for 2-3 days. However, you can resume most daily activities immediately.

How many treatments are needed for optimal results?

Most patients benefit from 1 to 3 treatments spaced about one month apart.

Are there any side effects?

Common side effects include mild redness, increased skin sensitivity, and minor peeling. These are generally short-lived and manageable with proper aftercare.

When will I see the results?

Initial improvements can be seen within a few days, with continued enhancement over several months as collagen production increases.

Is the procedure painful?

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during treatment.
