CoolPeel Instructions
Post-Treatment Care:
You may feel a warm/sunburn sensation for about 2-4 hours post treatment.
Gauze or a clean cloth moistened with cold water can be applied to the skin to help remove heat from the treatment area.
Once the feeling of heat/warmth resolves, a light, cream-based moisturizer (without alcohol) should be used to keep the skin hydrated (ask your provider for a recommended product).
If you feel any burning or discomfort, gently wash off the product using water and do not apply any other products.
For the first 24 hours, do not use any products other than the moisturizer recommended by your treatment provider.
A cool misting spray may be used for extra comfort if needed.
Use a clean pillowcase and sleep with an extra pillow to keep the head slightly elevated.
Avoid sun exposure, intense workouts, and sweating for 24 hours.
Do not expose the treated area to anything that may cause complications (dirt, pets, etc.) as advised by your provider.
You can resume your usual skincare routine after 24 hours if comfortable.
Your skin may have a sandpaper-like texture for 4-7 days (or more based on treatment area).
Do not use any exfoliants or other products/procedures to remove the texture.
Makeup Application Post Treatment:
It is best to leave your skin without any makeup for at least 24 hours. Mineral makeup can be applied 24-48 hours post-treatment if comfortable. Make sure to use clean applicators to apply makeup to help protect your skin, maintain clean pores, and allow the skin to properly heal over time.
Anticipated Downtime:
One of the main benefits of a CoolPeel is the minimal downtime. You should expect to be a little red, as if you have a sunburn, for a day or two. But nothing should prevent you from returning to your normal daily activities. Your skin may feel dry and scaly as it heals, so it is important to keep the skin hydrated.
CoolPeel treatments can be repeated monthly until desired results are achieved.
