CoolPeel CO2 laser: intensive skin rejuvenation with minimal recovery time
Do you want to renew, refine, and rejuvenate your skin without a long recovery period? The CoolPeel CO2 laser treatment is one of the newest and most advanced skin improvement treatments at Glow Institute.
This innovative laser technology stimulates the skin intensely, while keeping recovery time minimal. But what exactly does a CO2 laser do to the skin, and what makes the CoolPeel treatment so special?
What is a CoolPeel CO2 laser treatment?
The CoolPeel treatment is the latest generation in CO2 laser treatments. A CO2 laser, also known as a fractional laser, is a powerful and effective method for skin improvement.
The laser can help reduce, among other things:
-
Large pores
-
Pigment spots and sun damage
-
An uneven skin texture
During the treatment, the skin is stimulated from within. This increases the production of collagen and elastin, two essential building blocks for firm, healthy skin.
The result is a more even skin texture, refined pores, and fresher, younger-looking skin.
How does a CO2 laser work on the skin?
A CO2 laser works by means of very controlled energy pulses. These pulses create microscopically small channels in the skin. This activates the skin's natural healing process.
The laser primarily works in the top layer of the skin (the epidermis) where it removes damaged skin tissue and refines the skin structure. At the same time, the energy also reaches deeper skin layers, where additional collagen stimulation occurs.
This ensures:
-
improvement of skin texture
-
reduction of wrinkles and scars
-
smoother and firmer skin
-
a fresh and healthy appearance
What makes CoolPeel different from a traditional CO2 laser?
While traditional CO2 lasers often work with a lot of heat and have a longer recovery time, CoolPeel technology uses ultra-short energy pulses without excessive heat.
This keeps the treatment very effective, but the skin is less stressed.
Benefits of CoolPeel:
-
Shorter recovery time
-
Less redness and swelling
-
Less chance of prolonged flaking
-
Effective skin renewal
The skin may be slightly red or swollen after the treatment and some flaking may occur. This is part of the natural healing process and usually disappears within 7 to 10 days.
How does a CoolPeel laser treatment proceed?
During the treatment, the specialist moves the laser over the skin's surface. The laser emits controlled energy pulses that create tiny micro-channels in the skin.
The treatment feels like a short, warm tingling sensation and is generally well tolerated.
An important advantage is that the laser only targets the area to be treated, while the surrounding tissue remains intact. This ensures faster recovery.
The CoolPeel treatment is also safe for all skin types when performed by an experienced specialist.
What skin problems is CoolPeel suitable for?
The CoolPeel CO2 laser treatment is suitable for various skin problems and skin goals, such as:
-
Large pores
-
Acne scars
-
Pigmentation
-
Fine lines
-
Wrinkles
-
Skin aging
-
Dull or uneven skin texture
During an intake consultation, we thoroughly examine your skin and discuss your wishes. Based on this, we create a personalized treatment plan that is fully tailored to your skin.
Enhance results with polynucleotides
To further enhance the results of the treatment, polynucleotides can be added to the treatment.
These are applied to the skin immediately after the laser treatment.
Polynucleotides are purified DNA fragments derived from salmon. These natural molecules support the skin's regeneration process and have multiple benefits:
-
stimulate collagen and elastin
-
accelerate skin recovery
-
intensely hydrate
-
calm redness and irritation
The polynucleotides provide an immediate calming and soothing sensation after the laser treatment.
The polynucleotides can be added to the treatment as an add-on and cost €100 per treatment.
How many CoolPeel treatments are needed?
You will already see a great result after one treatment. For the best and most lasting result, an average of three treatments are needed.
There is usually an interval of 4 to 6 weeks between treatments to allow the skin sufficient time to recover and produce new collagen.
