DEKA SmartXide CoolPeel

CoolPeel is an ideal way to deliver the benefits of a traditional CO2 resurfacing treatment safely and comfortably. By targeting the superficial layer of the skin, damaged skin can be removed to reveal younger and healthier-looking skin.

A CoolPeel laser treatment is done with the Tetra CO2 laser, which has the precision, customization and control to deliver energy at the right depth and speed for superficial skin resurfacing results without the deeper heat.

What Will the Procedure Feel Like?

Each treatment can range from 10-30 minutes. Prior to the treatment, a topical anesthetic may be applied for 20-30 minutes. With topical anesthetic, the treatment should be easily tolerated. After the anesthetic wears off, patients may feel a heat sensation similar to a sunburn.

Pre-Treatment Instructions

Avoid sun exposure four weeks before treatment.
Self-tanning lotions and/or spray tans should be avoided for at least two weeks prior to your treatment.
If instructed, begin using Alastin Regenerating Skin Nectar twice daily two weeks before the procedure.
Avoid harsh scrubs or exfoliants one week before the procedure.
Stop retinoids and Melatonik to the treatment area one week prior to the procedure.
If you have a history of cold sores, notify your doctor prior to the procedure, so that you can be given a medication to reduce the chance of a breakout.
To minimize discomfort, you make take 600mg of ibuprofen 1 hour before your treatment BUT DO NOT TAKE IBUPROFEN FOR ONE WEEK PRIOR IF YOU ARE USING PRP DURING YOUR TREATMENT, AS IT CAN MAKE THE TREATMENT LESS EFFECTIVE.
It is a good idea to bring a hat, scarf or other protective clothing to help protect the area on your way home after treatment, as sunscreen cannot be applied while the channels created during treatment remain open (6-12 hours).

Frequently Asked Questions

What Will I Be Like Afterwards?

One of the main benefits of a CoolPeel is that there is minimal downtime. You should expect to be a little red, as if you have a sunburn, for a day or two, but nothing should prevent you from returning to your normal daily activities. Your skin may feel dry and scaly as it heals so it is important to keep the skin hydrated.

What Results Can I Expect?

One can expect improved skin texture and firmness and a decreased appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores and mild acne scars. These results will develop in the three to six months following a series of treatments.

How Long with Results Last?

If you are looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and sun damage, minimize pores and improve skin texture, you are a good candidate. Your skin will look healthier and younger, whether you treat your face, neck or chest.
