CoolPeel CO2 Laser

Advanced Laser Resurfacing with Minimal Downtime

The CoolPeel CO2 Laser at Muse Modern Spa is an advanced skin resurfacing treatment designed to address visible signs of aging and sun damage without the extended recovery typically associated with traditional CO2 laser procedures.

CoolPeel is often chosen by individuals looking for noticeable skin improvements while maintaining their daily routines.

How CoolPeel Works

CoolPeel uses fractional CO2 laser technology to deliver high-energy pulses in extremely short bursts. This approach targets the superficial layer of skin while minimizing heat transfer to surrounding tissue.

The laser creates controlled micro-channels in the skin, removing damaged cells and stimulating collagen production. Because the heat exposure is brief and precise, the skin’s natural healing response is activated without the prolonged inflammation associated with traditional CO2 treatments.

What This Treatment Is Designed to Address

The CoolPeel CO2 Laser may help improve the appearance of:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Sun damage and age spots
  • Uneven skin tone and texture
  • Enlarged pores
  • Mild acne scarring
  • Dull or rough skin texture

Visible improvements in skin smoothness and clarity are often noticed within days of treatment, with continued enhancement as collagen production increases over the following weeks.

Customization at Muse

Each CoolPeel treatment is adjusted based on your skin type, concerns, and tolerance. Your provider will evaluate skin condition, sensitivity, and treatment history to determine appropriate laser settings.

Treatment intensity can be modified to match your specific needs while keeping recovery minimal.

Areas Treated

CoolPeel is most commonly performed on the face. Treatment may also be applied to the neck, chest, and hands when appropriate. Areas of focus are discussed during consultation.

Before Your Treatment

To prepare for CoolPeel:

  • Avoid retinoids and exfoliating products for several days prior
  • Discontinue active skincare ingredients as directed
  • Minimize sun exposure in the weeks before treatment
  • Inform your provider of any recent procedures or skin sensitivities
  • Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup when possible

After Your Treatment

Downtime following CoolPeel is minimal. Skin may appear red and feel warm for one to two days, similar to mild sunburn. Most people resume normal activities immediately.

As skin heals over the next few days, it may feel dry and develop light flaking. This is a normal part of the skin renewal process.

Aftercare guidance includes:

  • Keeping skin well-hydrated with gentle moisturizers
  • Applying broad-spectrum sunscreen daily
  • Avoiding direct sun exposure during healing
  • Temporarily discontinuing exfoliating products
  • Waiting 24 hours before applying makeup

Your provider will review specific aftercare instructions based on your treatment.

Treatment Series

While improvement may be visible after a single session, optimal results are typically achieved with a series of treatments. Your provider will recommend a treatment plan based on your skin goals. Sessions are usually spaced four weeks apart.
