CoolPeel

CoolPeel

With CoolPeel in Eindhoven, we refresh, smooth and brighten your skin, with a recovery time of a few days. A dull complexion, large pores or pigmentation that just won't go away: sometimes it's just too deep for a cream or a regular peel. CoolPeel is a light CO2 laser treatment that renews the top layer of the skin.

Common reasons for CoolPeel:

  • ✓ A dull, uneven complexion
  • ✓ Large pores and a rough skin texture
  • ✓ Superficial pigmentation spots and sun damage
  • ✓ Fine lines

What is CoolPeel?

CoolPeel is a treatment with the DEKA Tetra Pro, a CO2 laser. The laser light is absorbed by the water in your skin and evaporates a paper-thin layer of the top layer of the skin. The laser works with short, powerful pulses and very little heat. This keeps the surrounding tissue intact.

The laser treats your skin in a grid of microscopically small dots. The skin between those dots remains intact and helps with recovery. That is why your skin usually recovers within a few days.

Who is CoolPeel suitable for?

CoolPeel is right for you if you want fresher and smoother skin without having to be out of action for long. For example, for:

  • ✓ A dull, uneven complexion
  • ✓ A rough or uneven skin texture
  • ✓ Large pores
  • ✓ Superficial pigmentation spots and sun damage
  • ✓ Fine lines

Whether CoolPeel is right for your skin, we will assess during your free consultation. For a darker skin type, we often start with a pre-treatment to reduce the chance of pigment shifting.

CoolPeel or CO2 resurfacing?

Both treatments use the same laser, but at a different depth. CoolPeel renews the top layer of the skin, with little heat and a short recovery time. That is suitable for a dull complexion, pigmentation and a rough texture.

CO2 resurfacing works down to the dermis and stimulates collagen production there. That treatment is more intensive, with about a week of recovery time, and is suitable for deeper wrinkles, sagging skin and scars. If you are looking for more improvement, read about CO2 resurfacing. Which treatment is right for you, we will discuss during your consultation.

How does the treatment go?

  1. Free consultation. The skin therapist examines your skin, discusses your wishes and draws up a personalized treatment plan.
  2. Preparation. Depending on your skin type, we start with a pre-treatment or adapted skincare. 
  3. The treatment. About 30 minutes before the treatment, we apply a numbing cream.  We discuss beforehand what you can expect.
  4. Recovery and aftercare. Your skin is red and feels warm for the first few days, after which it peels slightly. After a few days, you can get back to your daily routine. You will receive aftercare advice, including daily sun protection.

What are the results of CoolPeel?

As soon as your skin has recovered, it feels smoother and looks more even and brighter. Makeup often sits more beautifully on the skin. For the best result, we usually plan CoolPeel as a course, with 4 to 8 weeks between treatments. How many treatments you need depends on your skin and your wishes.

  • ✓ A smoother skin texture
  • ✓ A more even, fresher complexion
  • ✓ Less visible pores and pigmentation
  • ✓ A recovery time of a few days

Veelgestelde vragen over CoolPeel laser in Eindhoven | BLOY Institute

Does a CoolPeel hurt?

First, we apply a numbing cream 30 to 45 minutes beforehand. During the laser treatment, you will feel warmth and a slight tingling sensation. The treatment itself takes only 5 to 15 minutes.

What will my skin look like after a CoolPeel?

Immediately after the treatment, your skin will be red and warm, similar to a mild sunburn. Some swelling may occur around the eyes. In the following days, your skin will become slightly darker and peel lightly, usually within 2 to 5 days.

Can I just go back to work after a CoolPeel?

Often, yes. However, you should avoid makeup, intense exercise, saunas and swimming for the first 48 hours. You will receive an aftercare routine with a gentle cleanser, a restorative cream and daily SPF 50+.

How do I prepare for a CoolPeel?

Four weeks beforehand, stay out of the sun and off the tanning bed. Three to four days beforehand, stop using exfoliating products such as retinol and acids. Do you sometimes get cold sores? Mention it during your consultation, and you'll receive advice beforehand.

When is CoolPeel not suitable?

For example, in cases of a tan, pregnancy or breastfeeding, use of isotretinoin (Roaccutane) in the past 6 to 12 months, or an active skin infection. We will go through this with you during the consultation.
