Say goodbye to dull, damaged skin and hello to a smoother, brighter, more youthful complexion, with little to no downtime! The Tetra Pro CO₂ laser with CoolPeel™ technology is a next-generation skin resurfacing treatment that revitalizes the surface of your skin and stimulates collagen production, all while preserving your comfort and minimizing recovery time.
Whether you’re looking for a light refresh or more dramatic rejuvenation, we tailor each CO2 laser treatment to your skin, your goals, and your schedule.
About CoolPeel®
The Tetra Pro CO₂ laser is the most advanced CO₂ laser platform available today, and CoolPeel® is a proprietary treatment that delivers the benefits of traditional CO₂ resurfacing, like improved skin texture, reduced fine lines, and minimized sun damage—without the extended downtime usually associated with those treatments.
CoolPeel® works by delivering ultra-short pulses of CO2 laser light energy that precisely target the superficial layer of skin, leaving the surrounding tissue undisturbed. So the entire skin is not treated at one time. This allows for faster healing and less down time. This targeted treatment stimulates your skin’s natural healing process and boosts collagen, helping you achieve healthier, smoother skin with fewer risks and faster recovery.
Ideal Candidates
CoolPeel® is ideal for men and women looking to improve the overall tone and texture of their skin with a safe, non-invasive option that won’t disrupt their routine. You may be a good candidate if you are:
-
- Noticing fine lines or early wrinkles
-
- Dealing with sun damage, uneven skin tone, or hyper-pigmentation
-
- Struggling with enlarged pores or rough skin texture
-
- Interested in collagen stimulation to maintain youthful skin
-
- Looking for results with little to no downtime
This CO2 laser treatment may not be suitable for individuals with active acne, open wounds, or specific medical conditions. We recommend scheduling a consultation appointment to determine if this is the right option for you before scheduling your CO2 laser resurfacing treatment.
What To Expect During Your CoolPeel® Treatment?
Your CoolPeel® experience should be comfortable, and personalized from start to finish.
-
- Before your appointment, you will cleanse your skin and apply a topical numbing cream (that we prescribe) for added comfort, depending on the intensity of your treatment.
-
- The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
-
- You may feel a mild warm or prickly sensation, but most patients find the treatment very tolerable and don’t require significant pain management. There is a cooling device used to minimize this sensation.
-
- Afterward, your skin may appear red, like a mild to moderate sunburn— that’s normal and usually resolves within a day or two.
CoolPeel® Aftercare And Recovery
One of the biggest benefits of CoolPeel® is the minimal downtime compared to traditional CO₂ laser resurfacing.
-
- Redness typically lasts 1–2 days and can often be covered with makeup after 24 hours.
-
- You may experience dryness or a “sandpapery” texture for a few days as your skin renews itself.
-
- Most patients can return to work or regular activities a day or so after treatment.
-
- You’ll be asked to avoid sun exposure and wear a high-quality SPF daily for the next 2-3 weeks as your skin heals.
We provide detailed post-treatment care instructions to every patient at their consultation and/or treatment appointment to ensure optimal healing and results.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CoolPeel® Laser painful?
Most patients describe the sensation as warm or slightly prickly. You will apply a topical numbing cream to increase comfort, especially for more intensive settings and this will be applied 45 minutes prior to treatment.
How many treatments will I need?
Many patients see improvement after just one session, but a series of 3–4 treatments spaced a few weeks apart often delivers the best, most lasting results.
When will I see results?
You may notice a glow and smoother texture within a week, but full results—including collagen improvement—develop over several weeks to months after CO2 laser treatment.
Can CoolPeel® be combined with other treatments?
Yes! CoolPeel® pairs well with treatments like Morpheus8TM, Toxin or Filler injections, and skincare regimens. We are happy to help you build a customized plan for your skin and your goals.
Is there anyone who shouldn’t get CoolPeel®?
Patients with active infections, open wounds or active acne breakouts, or a history of poor healing may not be ideal candidates. We also do not recommend treating skin that has recently had any prolonged UV exposure, especially with a sunburn. We’ll evaluate your skin and discuss your history during your consultation.
