Frequently Asked Questions
What is CoolPeel®?
CoolPeel® is an advanced CO₂ laser treatment that delivers the benefits of skin resurfacing with less downtime than traditional CO₂ laser treatments. By minimizing excess heat to surrounding tissue, CoolPeel® can improve skin texture, fine lines, and sun damage while allowing for a faster recovery.
Am I a candidate for CO₂ laser resurfacing?
Many patients seeking improvement in skin texture, signs of aging, sun damage, or scarring may be candidates for treatment. During your consultation, Dr. Nicholas Guido will evaluate your skin and determine the most appropriate treatment plan based on your goals and skin type.
What should I expect after treatment?
Recovery varies depending on the intensity of the treatment performed. Patients commonly experience redness, swelling, and a sunburn-like sensation after treatment. CoolPeel® treatments generally involve less downtime, while more aggressive resurfacing treatments may require a longer healing period.
When will I see results?
Many patients notice improvement as the skin heals, with continued enhancement occurring over the following weeks and months as collagen production increases. Results typically include smoother texture, improved skin tone, and a more youthful appearance.
