CoolPeel

The CoolPeel is a more gentle CO2 treatment alternative to the traditional CO2 laser skin resurfacing devices of the past. Carbon dioxide (CO2) laser skin resurfacing has been used for quite some time to treat a variety of skin conditions and remain the gold standard for resurfacing and rejuvenating the skin. The advanced CoolPeel technology, offers a CO2 treatment with gradual results with only minimal downtime.

The Tetra is amongst the newest and most advanced CO2 technologies available a it features customizable settings for intensity, depth and shape of the laser energy. This unmatched versatility means treatments are evan and more precise, optimizing results and minimizing side effects and unnecessary downtime.

Traditional CO2 lasers work by delivering light energy to heat the targeted skin and destroy the outer layer of the skin. After a significant period of downtime, a new, fresh layer of skin is revealed. Patients can then enjoy improvements in the appearance of sun damage, birthmarks, wrinkles, and scars.

However, many patients are unable or unwilling to accommodate the lengthy recovery period associated with traditional CO2 lasers. The CoolPeel laser can be an ideal solution for patients seeking noticeable skin revitalization with minimal downtime and discomfort.

To reduce downtime, the CoolPeel laser emits very short pulses of high-intensity light energy throughout the treatment. With this approach, ample heat is delivered to encourage collagen production and clear the complexion, but thermal damage to the skin is minimized.

Depending on the skin conditions you want to treat, your CoolPeel laser peel may take as little as five minutes or up to 15 minutes. No anesthesia is necessary with this gentle procedure, though Dr. Harpe can apply a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort during the Tetra CO2 CoolPeel laser treatment.

You will be able to resume your normal activities right away after CoolPeel laser treatment. Mild redness in the treated area is to be expected for a day or two after the procedure. This symptom is similar to having a sunburn. The skin may also feel a bit dry.

Personalized instructions for post-treatment skincare will be provided. Hydrating the skin and protecting it from the sun are key for maximizing your results. Our expert team will advise you on the best products to use after your CoolPeel laser treatment.
