Laser Skin Resurfacing In Nags Head

Eligibility depends on several factors. Clients are ineligible if they are currently pregnant or breastfeeding. CoolPeel is also not recommended for patients with darker skin tones (IV, V, and VI on the Fitzpatrick skin scale)

To treat your healthiest skin, we recommend waiting to start for 4 weeks after extended sun exposure or sunburn and for 6 months after ending Accutane medication.

Delay treatment if you have active skin infections or open wounds on your face. A CoolPeel can also cause keloid formation or hyperpigmentation. If you have a history of these conditions, a CoolPeel might not be suitable for you.

No, CoolPeel is not recommended for darker skin tones. Darker skin tones have an increased risk of hyperpigmentation (dark spots) and hypopigmentation (light spots), and CoolPeel can lead to new dark spots or depigmented areas.

If you have darker skin and we recommend against CoolPeel, BeachGlo offers chemical peels and Exion Clear treatments, which target similar concerns while remaining safe for all skin tones.

This C02 fractional laser is the gold standard for skin resurfacing, signs of aging, fine lines, tone, texture and pore size. This encourages your skin’s healing process to start producing collagen and elastin to repair and renew skin cells in the targeted area, resulting in a smoother, more even complexion. As a treatment for laser skin resurfacing in Nags Head, you won’t find a more gentle experience than the CoolPeel because, unlike other types of laser treatments, there is no thermal damage involved.

During a CoolPeel, most of our patients feel little more than a mild tingling, so there is often no need for a numbing cream. However, we do offer the option of numbing beforehand for your increased comfort.

CoolPeel results may last up to 2 years following the initial series of 3 sessions, each a month apart.

Laser skin resurfacing in Nags Head boosts collagen production. Collagen is a protein that provides skin structure and support, so increasing collagen creates slow-developing but long-lasting results from improved skin health. Skin improves for a while after the treatment, and you enjoy that tighter skin until the effects of your CoolPeel treatment begin to fade. 

Yearly touch-ups can extend your results.

CoolPeel treatment is completely safe when done by a qualified medical aesthetics provider such as the BeachGlo team. Side effects are uncommon but could include swelling, redness, the skin feeling hot and rough. During your consultation, a member of our team will discuss what side effects, if any, might be a concern for you.

CoolPeel can noticeably improve skin tone, texture, and tightness on its own. But for even more enhanced results, our providers also love combining CoolPeel with Exion RF microneedling and an IPL photofacial for a “triple threat” procedure as a more intensive skincare regimen.

Do not be fooled by the name: a CoolPeel laser treatment still utilizes controlled thermal heating to promote collagen production. 

However, the Tetra CO2 laser allows providers to customize laser intensity, shape, and depth for more exact care. This customization reduces thermal damage to surrounding skin, hence the term “cool.”
