Laser Skin Resurfacing for Healthier, Younger-Looking Skin
Includes 3 exclusive treatments for personalized results
1. CoolPeel: Surface refresh
Best for: Early signs of aging, dullness, fine lines, enlarged pores, mild sun damage, and uneven texture.
CoolPeel uses controlled fractional CO₂ energy to remove tiny columns of damaged surface skin while stimulating the skin’s renewal process and collagen production. Its high-pulse technology is designed to limit excess heat to surrounding tissue compared with more aggressive CO₂ resurfacing.
-
Primary focus: Surface texture and tone
-
Downtime: Often a few days of redness, roughness, or tiny dots of flaking
-
Treatment plan: Often a series of lighter treatments
Think of it as a skin refresh with collagen stimulation.
2. CoolPeel Fusion: Surface + skin tightening
Best for: Patients who want more comprehensive improvement in texture, fine lines, sun damage, and early skin laxity.
Fusion combines fractional CO₂ resurfacing with non-ablative 1570 nm energy in a customized treatment. The CO₂ component addresses the skin’s surface, while the 1570 nm component delivers heat below the surface to encourage collagen remodeling without ablating that tissue.
-
Primary focus: Surface renewal plus deeper collagen stimulation
-
Downtime: Variable; commonly several days, depending on settings
-
Treatment plan: Customized to the patient’s concerns and desired recovery
Think of it as a more comprehensive, multi-depth approach to skin rejuvenation.
3. DEKA CO2 Fusion: More intensive skin correction
Best for: More pronounced wrinkles, significant sun damage, deeper textural irregularities, and selected acne scars.
DEKA Fusion involves a more intensive ablative CO₂ resurfacing where the laser removes more tissue and stimulates a stronger wound-healing response.
-
Primary focus: More substantial resurfacing and collagen remodeling
-
Downtime: Potentially a week or longer, depending on treatment depth
-
Treatment plan: Often fewer, more intensive sessions, depending on the protocol
| Feature | CoolPeel | CoolPeel Fusion | Intensive DEKA CO₂ Fusion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main goal | Refresh | Rejuvenate at multiple depths | More significant correction |
| Laser energy | Fractional CO₂ | CO₂ + 1570 nm | More intensive ablative CO₂, depending on protocol |
| Fine lines | Mild | Mild to moderate | Moderate to deeper |
| Sun damage | Mild to moderate | Moderate | More extensive |
| Texture and pores | Excellent for mild concerns | Good for broader concerns | Good for more pronounced texture issues |
| Acne scars | Superficial scars may improve | Selected scars | May suit deeper scars |
| Typical recovery | A few days | Several days, variable | Often 7–14 days or more |
What happens during recovery?
CoolPeel
Expect redness, a sandpaper-like texture, and possible pinpoint flaking for several days. Skin usually returns to a more comfortable appearance relatively quickly. Sometimes numbing is not necessary.
CoolPeel Fusion
Redness, mild swelling, warmth, and flaking may last longer than with a very light CoolPeel. Recovery depends heavily on the balance and intensity of the two wavelengths. Numbing is used with the CoolPeel Fusion.
DEKA CO₂ Fusion
More noticeable redness, swelling, crusting, and peeling are possible. Skin may need a week or two to heal, with redness persisting longer.
For all three, appropriate aftercare and strict sun protection are essential. Patients with darker skin tones, a history of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, melasma, or certain skin conditions need particularly careful assessment because laser resurfacing can trigger pigment changes.
