CoolPeel
The CoolPeel will be available at Enriched Med Spa in early July 2022What is Tetra CO2 Laser CoolPeel?
How does CoolPeel differ from traditional CO2 laser treatments?
CO2 lasers have been the gold standard in skin resurfacing for decades. While traditional CO2 lasers can indeed provide amazing results, they generally require a few weeks to even months of recovery for the skin to heal. A CoolPeel treatment is done with the latest, most advanced CO2 laser called the Tetra CO2 laser. What makes it outstanding and unparalleled is that it uses a very short pulse of light to deliver high energy to the skin. This means our Medical Aestheticians can precisely control the injury caused to the superficial skin, there is less buildup of heat in surrounding tissues, and less lingering heat in the skin. As a result, there is reduced redness, peeling, and flaking of the skin after CoolPeel treatments compared to traditional CO2 lasers. Additionally, the CoolPeel uses a spray pattern that shortens the treatment duration to about 10 minutes compared to 1-2 hours with traditional CO2 lasers.
Is the CoolPeel painful?
How much does CoolPeel cost?
How soon will I see the effects of the CoolPeel and how long will they last?
You will notice a dramatic improvement in your skin within 10 days of CoolPeel treatment. Through multiple treatments over the next 3-6 months, you will continue to see progressive improvement from CoolPeel as the deeper layers of your skin continue to heal. Depending on multiple factors, the results of CoolPeel can last between many months to multiple years. It is strongly encouraged and highly recommended that clients commit to a consistent and individualized skin care routine in order to maintain and optimize results.
