Advanced CO2 laser resurfacing with minimal downtime for smoother, younger-looking skin
Experience the power of traditional CO2 laser resurfacing with minimal downtime through CoolPeel technology. This breakthrough treatment improves wrinkles, sun damage, texture, and tone with just 3-5 days of social downtime instead of weeks - making world-class skin resurfacing finally accessible for busy lifestyles.
What Is CoolPeel?
CoolPeel delivers the dramatic results of traditional CO2 laser resurfacing without the extensive downtime. While traditional CO2 lasers require 2-4 weeks of recovery, CoolPeel uses ultra-short pulses that remove damaged skin while keeping surrounding tissue cool - reducing downtime to just 3-5 days.
This treatment targets fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, age spots, uneven texture, and large pores with progressive improvement over 2-3 sessions. It's the "Goldilocks" of laser resurfacing - more aggressive than BBL or IPL, but gentler than traditional CO2. Perfect for patients who want significant results but can't take weeks off work.
At Divinity Med Spa, we've served Spring Hill since 2015 as Hernando County's most trusted medical spa. Our providers are expertly trained in CoolPeel technology and understand how to balance aggressive treatment with controlled downtime for optimal results.
Why Choose CoolPeel?
Powerful Results
CO2 laser technology provides dramatic improvement in wrinkles, sun damage, and skin texture - results that rival traditional ablative lasers.
Minimal Downtime
Just 3-5 days of social downtime compared to 1-2 weeks with traditional CO2. Most patients return to work within a week.
Innovative Technology
Coolpeel delivers controlled energy pulses that remove damaged skin while keeping tissue cool, minimizing thermal damage and recovery time.
LONG-LASTING RESULTS
Stimulates deep collagen production for improvements that continue developing for 3-6 months and last 1-2+ years with proper skincare. Most patients are happiest if they do a series of 3 treatments.
What Can CoolPeel Treat?
Resurface damaged skin, erase years of sun damage, and reveal smoother, younger-looking skin.
CoolPeel excels at smoothing fine lines around the eyes (crow's feet), mouth (perioral lines), and forehead. The laser removes damaged surface skin while stimulating collagen deep in the dermis for plumper, smoother skin with fewer wrinkles.
Remove years of sun damage including age spots, sunspots, freckles, and overall photodamage. CoolPeel vaporizes pigmented cells and reveals fresh, clear skin beneath while stimulating cellular renewal for long-term improvement.
Dramatically improve rough, uneven skin texture and create a smoother, more refined complexion. CoolPeel addresses enlarged pores, overall skin irregularities, and creates more even skin tone by removing damaged surface layers.
CoolPeel provides comprehensive facial rejuvenation by addressing multiple concerns simultaneously — texture, tone, wrinkles, pores, and sun damage all improve together for a complete transformation.
Best Results Come from a Series
While you'll see improvement after a single CoolPeel session, we recommend a series of 3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. This approach allows for progressive improvement with each session, building collagen and addressing deeper concerns layer by layer without requiring excessive downtime from a single aggressive treatment.
Each treatment builds on the last, creating cumulative improvements in texture, tone, and overall skin quality.
Our patients consistently report being happiest with the comprehensive transformation achieved through a full series - the results are simply more dramatic and longer-lasting than a single treatment alone.

ALL THE ANSWERS
Frequently Asked Questions
Does CoolPeel hurt?
Topical numbing cream can be applied. We do not typically apply numbing cream but patients can request it.
Some areas are more sensitive (around mouth, nose). Post-treatment feels like a bad sunburn.
When will I see results?
Immediate texture improvement once peeling completes (7-10 days).
Continued improvement over 2-3 months as collagen production accelerates.
Maximum results 3-6 months post-treatment. Skin continues improving over time.
What's the downtime?
- Days 0-1: Red, swollen, hot feeling.
- Days 2-3: Skin bronzes (darkens), feels tight and dry.
- Days 3-5: Peeling begins, skin flakes off.
- Days 5-7: Most peeling complete, pink new skin revealed.
- Social downtime 3-5 days.
Can wear makeup day 3-4 to cover pinkness.
How many treatments do I need?
Single treatment provides noticeable improvement. Most patients optimal results with 2-3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
Maintenance treatment annually preserves results.
Is CoolPeel safe for dark skin?
Yes! CoolPeel's controlled energy delivery is safer for darker skin types (Fitzpatrick IV-VI) than traditional CO2. However, still carries some risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Proper pre-treatment prep and post-care critical. Test spot recommended for darker skin types.
How is CoolPeel different from traditional CO2?
Traditional CO2: 7-10 days of downtime, more aggressive for problems like acne scars and moderate wrinkles, dramatic results.
CoolPeel: 3-5 days downtime, manageable peeling, lower complication risk, comparable results.
CoolPeel is gentler approach with similar texture improvement.
Can I do CoolPeel in summer?
Best done fall/winter when sun exposure minimal.
However, if you can avoid sun completely for 4-6 weeks and use SPF 30 or higher religiously, broad spectrum sunscreen with a physical block such as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, summer treatment can be possible. Sun exposure post-treatment increases risk of hyperpigmentation and scarring.
What can't I do after CoolPeel?
- First week: No sun exposure, no makeup (first 24-48 hours), no picking peeling skin, no exercise/sweating, no harsh products, no hot water/steam.
- Weeks 2-4: No sun without SPF 30 or higher, broad spectrum sunscreen with a physical block such as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, no retinol/acids for 2 weeks, gentle skincare only.
Follow post-care instructions carefully.
Can I combine CoolPeel with other treatments?
Yes, strategically! CoolPeel combines well with Morpheus8 (different mechanisms), BBL (different concerns), and neuromodulators. Timing is critical - typically space 4-6 weeks between aggressive treatments. Some combine CoolPeel with PRP/PRF for enhanced healing and collagen production.
What if I don't peel much?
Peeling amount varies by individual and treatment aggressiveness. Some peel dramatically, others subtly. Results not correlated to amount of visible peeling.
Benefits occur at cellular level even without dramatic flaking. Don't judge results by peeling.
Is CoolPeel better than Morpheus8?
Different mechanisms, different strengths.
- CoolPeel: Surface resurfacing, best for texture, pigmentation, fine lines.
- Morpheus8: Deep tightening, best for skin laxity, fat remodeling.
Often combined for comprehensive rejuvenation addressing both surface and depth.
