Different Intensities, Different Results
How do each of these treatments work?
CoolPeel® Light Treatments
(The “Bodyweight Workout”)
- Like doing push-ups or squats, gentler treatments like CoolPeel® create mild stimulation
- Minimal recovery time needed, just like how you can do bodyweight exercises daily
- Gradual, consistent improvements over time, but more sessions required
- Perfect for maintenance and prevention
Traditional CO2
(The “Heavy Lifting Session”)
- Similar to an intensive weight training session, this treatment creates a more significant response in your body in a shorter amount of time
- Just as heavy lifting requires rest days for muscle recovery, you'll need some downtime for skin healing.
- The "muscle soreness" equivalent is a few days of skin swelling, redness and peeling.
- Results are more dramatic because you're triggering a more robust healing response
The Science Behind the Results
When the CO2 laser creates these controlled micro-injuries, your skin launches its repair process by:
- Increasing collagen production (like building new muscle fibers)
- Enhancing elastin development (improving your skin's "flexibility")
- Accelerating cell turnover (similar to how exercise boosts metabolism)
- Strengthening the skin's structure (just like how resistance training builds stronger muscles)
Long-Term Benefits
Just as consistent exercise leads to lasting strength and fitness, strategic CO2 treatments every few years, complete with proper skin care, create lasting skin improvements. And like how proper form in exercise prevents injury, our advanced technology ensures precise, controlled treatment for optimal results with minimal risk.
Option 1 - Meet CoolPeel®: The Gentle Way to Beautiful Skin
What Makes CoolPeel® Special?
Think of CoolPeel® as the smart, gentle cousin of traditional laser treatments. Using special technology from Italian experts DEKA, it works by carefully treating your skin without damaging the healthy tissue around it. This means you can get back to your life faster, and it’s safe for all skin types!
Our Tetra PRO CO2 laser is like having the latest iPhone of skin treatments. It’s powerful yet precise, and includes the award-winning CoolPeel® treatment (yes, it won NewBeauty’s Best CO2 Laser Treatment in 2023 and 2024!). It even has a cool feature called Moveo that lets us treat your skin more quickly and evenly than ever before.
Gentler on Your Skin
Imagine traditional lasers as a hot iron – they can be effective but might burn. CoolPeel® is more like a precise paintbrush, carefully controlling temperature to protect your skin while still getting great results.
Get Back to Life Faster
Because CoolPeel® is gentler on your skin, you won’t need to hide away for days. Your skin stays healthier during treatment, which means you’ll recover much faster than with old-school laser treatments.

Option 2 – Deka CO2 Ablative Resurfacing Treatment
Option 2 – Deka C02 Ablative Resurfacing Treatment
Traditional Deka CO2 Resurfacing – For Dramatic Transformations
For those seeking more significant results, our traditional CO2 treatment offers powerful skin rejuvenation. While it requires a longer recovery period (3-9 days), it can deliver dramatic improvements for:
- Deep wrinkles
- Significant skin laxity
- More pronounced scarring
- Advanced aging concerns
Both treatment options use our advanced Tetra CO2 system, allowing us to precisely control depth and speed for optimal results based on your specific needs and goals.
Whether you choose the gentle approach of CoolPeel® or the more intensive traditional treatment, we can create a plan that perfectly matches your skin concerns and lifestyle. Ultimately, this flexibility guarantees that patients can receive a skin resurfacing treatment customized to their needs and treatment goals. If you are a candidate for a deeper treatment, we will discuss this option during your consultation.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How soon will I see results?
Results begin to appear within 7-10 days and your skin will continue improving for 3-6 months, as your skin tissue naturally rejuvenates. Unlike older CO2 lasers, our advanced technology preserves healthy tissue while effectively targeting your concerns, making it safer and more comfortable than ever.
How is CoolPeel Different from Traditional CO2 Treatments?
Old laser treatments often meant lots of redness and staying indoors for days. But our Tetra CO2 laser is special – it can work on just the surface of your skin without creating extra heat that could cause damage. That’s actually why it’s called “Cool”Peel – because it gives you beautiful results without the same amount heat and downtime of traditional treatments!
How do CO2 Laser Treatments work to tighten and improve skin concerns?
Think of your skin’s collagen production like your body’s muscle-building response. When you lift weights, you create tiny micro-tears in your muscle fibers. Your body responds by rebuilding these fibers stronger than before – that’s how you gain strength and definition. Your skin works similarly when treated with CO2 laser therapy! CO2 laser treatments work by creating controlled “challenges” for your skin, to trigger its natural regeneration process and build stronger, more resilient skin tissue.
How long does the CO2 CoolPeel treatment take?
Great news – CoolPeel® treatments are super quick! A full face treatment takes less than 10 minutes. And with our new Moveo technology, we can work even faster – up to 30% faster than traditional treatments.
What Makes It So Quick?
- Our special “in-motion” technique lets us treat your skin smoothly and efficiently
- The larger treatment area (20×20) helps us cover more skin in less time
- We can treat larger areas like your neck, chest, and back quickly and evenly
- Our special “spray” mode makes sure we treat your skin evenly without going over the same spot twice
Extra Comfort Features
We use some cool technology (pun intended!) to make sure you’re comfortable:
- SmartTrack technology keeps the heat just right
- We use a special cold air device that blows very cold air on your skin during treatment
- Most patients find it so comfortable they don’t even need numbing cream
When will I see CO2 CoolPeel laser results?
You will begin to notice the amazing effects of the CoolPeel™ within ten days of treatment. One of the benefits of this treatment is that results continue to improve over the next 3-6 months as the deeper layer of the skin continues to heal and improve.
Which areas of the body and which concerns can be treated with CO2 Laser?
The CoolPeel® treatment improves the appearance of:
Skin tone & texture, Sun damage, Fine lines, Skin laxity, Pore size, StretchMarks and scars on nearly any area of the body and face.
CO2 Treatments look scary in online photos, should I be concerned about damaging my skin or scarring from this treatment?
While researching CO2 laser treatments, you may feel concerned after seeing dramatic recovery photos online. These typically represent intensive, deep-ablative procedures performed by plastic surgeons that require weeks of downtime. In contrast, at Elysian Laser, we use advanced Tetra PRO technology for precisely controlled treatments that balance safety with excellent results, making complications extremely rare when performed by our experienced technicians.
The key to successful treatment is simply following our detailed aftercare instructions and maintaining communication with your technician. Scarring is not typical and generally only occurs if infection develops, which is easily prevented with proper aftercare. We monitor your skin’s response closely, and many clients are surprised by how manageable recovery is, especially with our gentler CoolPeel® option that offers minimal downtime while still improving skin texture and tone.
What does recovery look like after a more aggressive CO2 treatment?
The recovery from an intensive CO2 laser treatment requires careful attention and dedication to the healing process.
After a CO2 laser treatment, expect your skin to feel hot and tight like a sunburn for several hours, followed by redness and swelling (especially around the eyes) for 1-2 days. Use ice packs, Tylenol for pain, and stay hydrated. Around days 4-5, your skin will peel, revealing fresh pink skin underneath. Throughout recovery, follow a strict aftercare routine with gentle cleansing and healing ointments to prevent infection and optimize results.
Do I have to stay indoors after an aggressive CO2 treatment?
The recovery from CO2 laser treatment requires staying indoors for several days (ideal for winter scheduling) because the healing skin is highly vulnerable to hyperpigmentation from UV exposure. Traditional sunscreens can’t be used initially due to infection risk, so patients must remain inside until mineral sunscreen can be safely applied (typically 4-7 days post-treatment). Despite this brief inconvenience, most patients see notable improvements in skin texture and tone within 7-10 days, with results continuing to improve over subsequent months.
How should I prepare for a CO2 treatment?
Preparing for a CO2 laser treatment begins at least two weeks before your procedure with key nutritional support. Take quality “whole food” supplements including Vitamin C (for collagen production), Vitamin D (skin repair), Zinc (tissue healing), and Vitamin E (antioxidant protection). For topical preparation, incorporate SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic antioxidant serum daily. Avoid alcohol and smoking for at least 5 days before treatment, focus on anti-inflammatory foods, protein, fruits and vegetables, and stay well-hydrated.
Create a comfortable recovery environment with practical items like a silk pillowcase to reduce friction on healing skin, stock up on prescribed healing creams, and prepare entertainment for your indoor recovery period. Arrange necessary time off work and assistance for the first few days after treatment. Maintain open communication with your technician about any medications, supplements, or skincare products you’re currently using to ensure safety and optimal results.
