What is Deka CO₂?
The Deka CO₂ laser is a skin resurfacing treatment that targets deeper skin layers to correct more noticeable concerns like deep wrinkles, acne scars, and age spots. It creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production for long-term skin tone and texture improvement. This treatment is recommended for patients seeking more intensive skin rejuvenation and are comfortable with some downtime. Downtime varies, but on average, it is 4-5 days of true downtime and an additional couple of weeks of redness.
What is CoolPeel?
CoolPeel is a gentler CO₂ laser treatment that focuses on the skin’s surface. It delivers the benefits of traditional CO₂ lasers without extensive downtime, making it an excellent option for busy schedules. CoolPeel addresses fine lines, mild sun damage, and enlarged pores, providing a refreshed look with minimal disruption to daily activities. Depending on the overall goal, more than one treatment may be needed.
