What is CoolPeel?

CoolPeel is a revolutionary fractional laser method that offers a safe, comfortable, and very minimal downtime approach over traditional CO2 laser resurfacing treatments. By selectively targeting the outermost layer of skin tissue, damaged skin is gently eliminated, unveiling a youthful and revitalized appearance.

Made possible by the SmartXide Tetra CO2 laser, CoolPeel sets itself apart among ablative treatments. This cutting-edge technology allows for precise control of energy output, delivering unmatched superficial skin resurfacing results while eliminating the conventional concern of excessive heat that could harm the surrounding areas.

What can CoolPeel do for me?

One of the primary benefits of CoolPeel is that there is very little downtime post-procedure. After CoolPeel Rockford patients are typically able to resume regular social and professional activities within just a few days versus a month as is the case with most standard CO2 peels. CoolPeel does not sacrifice its effectiveness for low downtime. Outstanding results with this treatment include:

Smoother wrinkles and fine lines
Smaller pore appearance
Correct hyperpigmentation from age spots, sun spots, or blemishes
Soften acne scars
Improve overall skin texture

Consultation and Preparation

Part of our core philosophy at PryorHealth is to ensure that each patient receives totally customized care that is tailored specifically to their individual needs and concerns. That personalization begins at your consultation. We will spend time learning about your aesthetic goals and getting to know you and your skin. If we determine together that you are a great candidate for CoolPeel, we will schedule your appointment and cover any necessary preparations.

Procedure

At your appointment, we will start by cleansing the face and we may use a topical cream to numb the treatment area if needed based on your comfort preferences. Then, your provider will gently glide the tool over your face with a precise, even application. A CoolPeel treatment typically takes around five to 15 minutes for the full face.

Results, Recovery, and Aftercare

Most patients can expect some mild redness after treatment, but this typically subsides after one to two days, and daily activities can be resumed quickly. A vibrant glow should be visible after a few more days, with optimal results lasting for three to six months.
