CoolPeel

CoolPeel is a quick yet highly effective fractional ablative laser resurfacing treatment using a powerful CO2 laser, the gold standard for skin resurfacing, at a precise superficial level and rapid speed to minimize side effects and downtime. In this treatment, damaged skin cells are ablated (vaporized) in a fractionated, grid-like pattern, to allow genesis of new collagen and new healthy skin cells. As a result of the rapid speed of the pulses, minimal heat is deposited in the skin, giving this treatment it’s name – CoolPeel.

It is perfect for reversing sun damage, minimizing lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture and appearance of pores, and brightening the skin. It can be performed quickly and leaves the skin only mildly pink.

One week before your CoolPeel, stop using exfoliating products (including retinol/tretinoin, AHAs, BHAs, and scrubs).

Avoid sun exposure 2-3 weeks before your treatment.

Come to your appointment well-hydrated and with a clean face.

CoolPeel during pregnancy requires clearance from your ObGyn.

You will feel a mild tingling or stinging sensation, and your skin may feel warm. We will have a cooling device available to keep you comfortable. At the end of this quick treatment, your skin will be pink and feel warm.

You can use cool compresses on your skin if it feels warm after the treatment.

Avoid applying makeup the day of your CoolPeel.

You can resume your normal skin care routine, including retinols and exfoliants, after your skin is fully healed, 3-5 days after treatment.

Avoid sun exposure while you are healing, and apply and re-apply SPF!

CoolPeel can be repeated every 4-6 weeks and for best results, we recommend a series of 4 treatments.
