Frequently Asked Questions

CoolPeel is the revolutionary, award-winning, and proven way to safely and comfortably deliver the benefits of a traditional CO2 resurfacing treatment. By precisely targeting the superficial layer of skin tissue, it removes damaged skin to reveal younger, healthier-looking skin.

Traditional CO2 lasers have long been considered the gold standard for improving wrinkles, age spots, acne scars, blemishes as well as tighten skin and balance tone. They work by removing damaged skin and stimulating collagen production. To achieve these results there is significant injury to the skin causing considerable downtime and risk while the damaged skin heals. That's where CoolPeel comes in. CoolPeel offers the same results with minimal downtime due to the fractional ablative technology that no other CO2 device has. You can enjoy tighter, brighter and healthier looking skin with minimal risk of hyperpigmentation, and a healthier-looking complexion with far less recovery time compared to traditional CO2 treatments.

If you're looking to smooth fine lines, fade sun damage, shrink the look of pores, or just give your skin a healthy refresh, CoolPeel is a great fit for you. The best part? It's safe for all skin types and leaves your skin looking healthier, smoother, and more youthful with minimal downtime.

One of the main benefits of a CoolPeel, is that there is minimal downtime.

Your skin may feel dry and scaly as it heals so it is important to keep your skin hydrated.

The number of treatments will depend on your treatment goals. Typically 3-5 treatments are recommended spaced 4 weeks apart. Your treatment provider will customize a treatment plan with you.
