Overview
CoolPeel® CO₂ Laser at Lunè
CoolPeel® by Cartessa is an advanced CO₂ laser treatment designed to refresh the skin with impressive results and minimal downtime. Using the Tetra CO₂ platform, CoolPeel® delivers controlled, fractionated energy to target the superficial layers of damaged skin without the heat traditionally associated with CO₂ resurfacing. This allows us to safely treat fine lines, sun damage, enlarged pores, rough texture, and overall dullness while stimulating new collagen for smoother, brighter, more youthful‑looking skin. Most clients notice improvement after a single session, though a series of 3 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart may be recommended for deeper concerns or more dramatic rejuvenation.
One of the biggest advantages of CoolPeel® is the minimal social downtime. Most clients experience mild redness similar to a light sunburn for 1–2 days, with possible dryness or a sandpaper‑like texture as the skin renews. Makeup can typically be worn the next day, and normal activities can resume right away. CoolPeel® offers the perfect balance of visible results and low‑maintenance recovery, making it an ideal option for anyone wanting refreshed, radiant skin without the extended downtime of traditional CO₂ resurfacing.
What CoolPeel treats
CoolPeel laser treatments target skin texture, fine lines, sun damage, age spots, acne scars, uneven skin tone, and overall skin rejuvenation by using CO₂ laser technology to stimulate collagen production and resurface the skin. This helps improve rough texture, minimize pores, and smooth fine lines while promoting healthier, more youthful-looking skin.
It can also help improve dull skin, mild skin laxity, and overall skin quality by encouraging collagen renewal and skin resurfacing. Most commonly performed on the face, CoolPeel can also be used on areas like the neck and chest for improved texture and brightness.
Because CoolPeel is a lighter, more controlled CO₂ treatment, it provides noticeable skin improvement with less downtime compared to traditional CO₂ laser resurfacing, making it ideal for patients looking for gradual, natural-looking skin rejuvenation.

What to expect
Your visit, step by step.
The appointment
A CoolPeel laser treatment typically takes 15–30 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. Smaller areas, such as around the eyes or mouth, may take closer to 15 minutes, while full-face treatments usually take about 20–30 minutes. The appointment also includes cleansing the skin, applying numbing cream if needed, and post-treatment care instructions.
Downtime
Expect 24-48 hours of social downtime.
How often
CoolPeel treatments are typically recommended in a series of 3–4 treatments spaced about 4–6 weeks apart for optimal skin rejuvenation and collagen stimulation. Because CoolPeel works by gradually improving skin texture and stimulating collagen production, multiple treatments help build more noticeable and longer-lasting results over time.
