Description

Reveal smoother, younger-looking skin with minimal downtime

What is CoolPeel®?

CoolPeel® is a cutting-edge fractional CO₂ laser treatment designed to deliver the resurfacing benefits of traditional CO₂ lasers—improved tone, texture and firmness—while dramatically reducing recovery time.

By targeting only the superficial layer of damaged skin tissue, CoolPeel® removes the “tired” outer skin and triggers your body’s natural collagen and elastin production for fresher, healthier-looking skin.

Key Benefits of CoolPeel®

Reduce fine lines & wrinkles

This treatment smoothes delicate lines and creases, especially around the eyes, mouth and forehead, by tightening skin through collagen stimulation.

Improve skin texture, pore size & tone

CoolPeel® refines rough or uneven skin, minimises enlarged pores and reduces visible sun-damage and age spots for a more radiant, even complexion.

Minimal downtime

Unlike aggressive CO₂ lasers that may require a week or more of healing, CoolPeel® typically offers little to no interruption to your schedule — in some cases you’re back to normal within a day or two.

Safe, customisable treatment

With fine-control settings, the procedure can be tailored to your skin type and goals—whether you’re addressing early signs of ageing or deeper texture issues.

Is CoolPeel® Right for You?

CoolPeel® is ideal for adults experiencing:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven skin texture or tone
  • Enlarged pores
  • Sun damage or age spots
    It may also be used on more than just the face – including neck, chest, hands and arms.
    During your consultation at Gravity Medical Spa, we’ll assess your skin history (e.g., cold‐sores, keloids, skin type) to ensure the treatment is appropriate and safe.

What to Expect Before, During & After Treatment

Preparation

We recommend avoiding sun exposure, retinoids or strong exfoliants as advised by your provider. If you have a history of cold sores, please notify your provider so preventive medication can be arranged.

Procedure

The session is typically quick. A topical numbing cream may be applied. You’ll feel a warm or mild prickling sensation as the laser works, and the treatment is delivered with precision to the target area.

Recovery & after-care

After treatment you may experience:

  • Light pinkness or redness for 1-2 days (face)
  • Dryness or mild swelling for 2-5 days depending on treatment depth
    Avoid strong sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 50 or higher). Follow your provider’s recommended skincare regime to ensure optimal results.

Results

You can expect smoother, more even-looking skin emerging in the days and weeks following treatment. With a series of treatments (commonly 2-4), results can further improve.
