Choosing between CO2 laser and CoolPeel isn’t just about the technology itself, it’s about who is performing the treatment and how it’s customized for your skin. At Aesthetics by Kallee, every laser treatment is performed by Kallee or one of our board certified laser specialists. Our approach is intentional, conservative, and results-driven. We take the time to evaluate your skin, your goals, and your tolerance for downtime before ever turning on a laser.
Traditional CO2 laser resurfacing is one of the most powerful treatments available for skin resurfacing. Kallee typically recommends CO2 laser treatments for patients with deeper wrinkles, acne scarring, significant sun damage, or more advanced skin texture concerns. Because this treatment penetrates deeper into the skin, it stimulates a strong collagen response and can produce dramatic results. We is very hands-on throughout the entire process, carefully selecting settings based on your skin type and comfort level, and walking you through exactly what to expect during healing. While CO2 laser does require more downtime, many patients feel the results are well worth it when they are ready for a more aggressive transformation.
CoolPeel is a newer, refined approach using the same CO2 wavelength, but delivered in a much more controlled and superficial way. Kallee often recommends CoolPeel for patients who want visible improvement without extended downtime. During a CoolPeel treatment, she focuses on improving skin texture, refining pores, and refreshing overall tone while minimizing heat and irritation. Most patients experience mild redness that resolves quickly, making it an excellent option for those who want results but still need to maintain their daily routine. Kallee also uses CoolPeel strategically for patients who may not be ready for full CO2 resurfacing or who want ongoing maintenance between more intensive treatments.
One of the things that sets this experience apart is that we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all laser treatment. Some patients benefit from a single CO2 treatment, while others see beautiful results from a series of CoolPeel sessions. In many cases, we even designs long-term skin plans that combine both approaches over time, depending on how your skin responds and evolves.
Because we offer both CO2 laser and CoolPeel, Kallee is able to make honest recommendations based on what your skin truly needs, not what equipment is available. The goal is always healthy, glowing skin with results that look natural and feel like the best version of you. A personalized consultation with Kallee is the first step in determining which laser treatment aligns best with your skin goals and lifestyle!
