Frequently Asked Questions
What is a CoolPeel?
CoolPeel® is an advanced CO₂ laser treatment that rejuvenates skin with minimal downtime. It helps improve tone, texture, and fine lines without the harsh side effects of traditional lasers. At Nakd Aesthetics in Phoenixville, we recommend an in-person consultation to determine if it’s right for you.
Who is a candidate for CoolPeel?
Most skin types can safely benefit from CoolPeel laser resurfacing. It's ideal for clients seeking gentle skin renewal, sun damage correction, or texture improvement without the downtime of more aggressive lasers.
How is CoolPeel different than traditional CO2 lasers
Unlike traditional CO₂ lasers that create more thermal damage (and longer recovery), CoolPeel delivers high energy in ultra-short pulses. This precision limits heat diffusion, reducing risks like hyperpigmentation while still achieving effective resurfacing results.
What should I do before CoolPeel treatment?
In the 2–4 weeks before treatment, hydrate your skin with moisturizer twice daily and drink at least 8 oz of water daily. Use a mineral sunscreen (SPF 30+) and avoid tanning, spray tans, or sun exposure. We recommend zinc-based SPF even indoors to prevent sun-related inflammation.
What is the downtime for a CoolPeel?
CoolPeel downtime is minimal! You may experience redness similar to a sunburn for the first 1–2 days. Most patients return to normal activities the next day, and any redness is easily covered with a tinted SPF. Skin may feel dry or slightly rough for a few days but typically resolves by day 5–7.
What is the aftercare for a CoolPeel?
After treatment, you can apply a cool, damp cloth to soothe the area. Once warmth subsides, apply a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer (no alcohols or actives). Sleep with a clean pillowcase and elevate your head to reduce swelling.
Avoid makeup, sun, pets, and heavy products for 24–48 hours. Around days 4–7, you may experience a sandpaper-like texture — do not exfoliate or pick; let it shed naturally.
How many CoolPeel treatments will I need?
Most clients need a series of 3 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal results.
-
Mild concerns: 1–2 sessions may improve tone and texture
-
Moderate sun damage or aging (30s+): 3+ sessions recommended
-
Deeper scarring or advanced aging: We may suggest alternative or deeper resurfacing options at Nakd Aesthetics
Is CoolPeel treatment painful?
CoolPeel® is much more comfortable than traditional CO₂ laser treatments. Most patients describe the sensation as a warm, prickly feeling — similar to a sunburn — and say the treatment is very tolerable. It typically takes only 5–15 minutes.
While numbing is not required, we offer it at Nakd Aesthetics for added comfort. After treatment, skin may feel tight and dry with mild redness. Most patients resume normal activities the very next day.
Can I get more aggressive treatment if I need it?
Yes! The Tetra CO₂ platform used with CoolPeel is highly customizable. At Nakd Aesthetics, we tailor each treatment to your needs.
For deeper lines, scarring, or more advanced aging, we may recommend a DEKA Pulse setting — a more intense CO₂ laser mode that delivers greater energy for deeper resurfacing. While this option involves more downtime than traditional CoolPeel, it offers more dramatic results for the right candidates.
DEKA Pulse CO₂ Laser for Deeper Skin Concerns
While CoolPeel® is perfect for refreshing the skin with minimal downtime, some patients benefit from deeper resurfacing. Our Tetra CO₂ laser features multiple pulse modes, including DEKA Pulse, designed to penetrate deeper into the dermis—ideal for:
Deep wrinkles
Acne scars
Traumatic or surgical scars
Severe sun damage
Skin laxity
Your provider at Nakd Aesthetics will determine the best settings—CoolPeel®, DEKA Pulse, or a combination—for your unique skin needs.
DEKA’s deeper settings allow for more aggressive resurfacing, targeting deeper wrinkles, scars, and significant skin laxity—but with that comes more downtime compared to the minimal recovery of a CoolPeel. It’s ideal for those looking for more dramatic results and are comfortable with a longer healing process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Deka vs CoolPeel
What is the difference between DEKA CO₂ and CoolPeel?
CoolPeel is a lighter, fractional CO₂ laser that targets the superficial skin layers to refresh skin tone and texture with minimal downtime.
DEKA CO₂ treatments penetrate deeper into the dermis, addressing advanced aging, deeper wrinkles, and scarring—usually with more downtime and post-care.
Which treatment is right for me?
CoolPeel is ideal if you want subtle skin renewal and can’t commit to significant downtime.
If your concerns include acne scars, deep wrinkles, or severe sun damage, DEKA CO₂ may be better suited. We’ll assess your goals during consultation to recommend the best option.
How much downtime should I expect?
CoolPeel typically involves 1–3 days of redness, dryness, and minimal peeling.
DEKA CO₂ treatments can involve 7–10+ days of downtime, including visible redness, flaking, and social recovery time depending on treatment depth.
Are the results of Deka or CoolPeel permanent?
Results from both treatments are long-lasting, especially when paired with consistent skincare and sun protection.
DEKA treatments tend to produce more dramatic results that may last longer with fewer sessions.
Can I combine CoolPeel and DEKA in a treatment plan?
Yes. Many patients start with a deeper DEKA treatment and maintain results with periodic CoolPeel sessions.
We often recommend a combination approach to support long-term skin health and appearance.
Is the treatment painful?
CoolPeel treatments require a quick topical numbing and are generally well tolerated, often described as a warm, prickly sensation.
DEKA CO₂ treatments typically require a longer numbing period due to their depth, but even these are very manageable with proper prep. At Nakd Aesthetics, we ensure every treatment is as comfortable as possible with customized numbing protocols and supportive aftercare.
