What to Expect?
During a CoolPeel CO2 laser treatment, controlled laser energy is applied to the surface of the skin to remove damaged outer layers and stimulate collagen production in the deeper layers. This process helps improve skin firmness, refine texture, and reduce visible signs of aging. CoolPeel treatments are commonly performed on the face, neck, chest, and hands, where sun exposure and aging are most noticeable. A typical session lasts 15–30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Some patients benefit from a series of treatments to achieve optimal skin resurfacing results.
Recovery Time
One of the key advantages of CoolPeel CO2 laser resurfacing is the shorter recovery time compared to traditional CO2 laser procedures. Most patients experience mild redness similar to a light sunburn for a few days following treatment. Many people return to normal daily activities within 24–48 hours. As the skin heals and collagen production increases, improvements in skin smoothness, brightness, and overall texture continue to develop over the following weeks.
