After introducing our FreshPeel CO₂ treatment, many clients ask what comes next. While FreshPeel is an excellent option for brightening dull skin and improving overall texture with minimal to no downtime, some skin concerns require a stronger level of correction.
Our advanced Finexel CO₂ treatments are designed for clients looking to address more noticeable signs of aging, sun damage, uneven skin tone, skin laxity, and wrinkles. Using the same advanced Finexel CO₂ laser technology, these treatment levels penetrate deeper into the skin to stimulate significant collagen production and encourage long term skin renewal.
Whether you're hoping to maintain youthful skin or reverse years of visible aging, our Skin Booster and Full Skin Rejuvenation treatments offer customized solutions based on your goals.
How Advanced CO2 Skin Treatments Work
As we age, our natural collagen production gradually slows. This contributes to fine lines, wrinkles, loss of skin laxity, enlarged pores, uneven texture, and pigmentation. CO₂ laser treatments work by creating controlled microscopic injuries in the skin, while leaving the areas around the injuries untouched. As your body repairs these tiny injuries, it produces new collagen and elastin, replacing damaged tissue with healthier, smoother skin. The result isn't simply skin that looks better temporarily, it's skin that is healthier, stronger, and more resilient from within.
Level 2: Skin Booster
If you're starting to notice early signs of aging, or simply want healthier, brighter skin, our Level 2 Skin Booster treatment provides an excellent balance between results and recovery. This mild resurfacing treatment reaches deeper than the FreshPeel, while remaining gentle enough for clients seeking gradual improvement with minimal interruption to their daily life.
The Skin Booster stimulates collagen production beneath the surface to improve overall skin quality while maintaining a relatively comfortable recovery. It is an excellent for preventative skin longevity, helping to maintain a youthful complexion before deeper wrinkles and laxity develop.
Benefits of the Skin Booster
- Brightens dull and tired looking skin
- Improves uneven skin texture
- Refines enlarged pores
- Softens fine lines
- Improves mild skin laxity
- Enhances absorption of skincare
- Stimulates healthy collagen production
Many clients notice healthier, more radiant skin after their first treatment. However, we generally recommend 3-4 treatments for the most noticeable and long lasting improvements.
Who is the Skin Booster Best For?
The Skin Booster is ideal if you:
- Want to prevent premature aging
- Have mild pigmentation or sun damage
- Notice early fine lines
- Want smoother texture and smaller looking pores
- Prefer gradual improvement with minimal downtime
- Want to maintain healthy collagen production
- Wanting tightening and toning of the skin
Level 3: Full Skin Rejuvenation
For clients seeking the most dramatic non-surgical improvements, our Level 3 Full Skin Rejuvenation delivers comprehensive skin resurfacing and collagen remodeling. This moderate to intensive CO₂ laser treatment targets multiple layers of the skin to address deeper wrinkles, skin laxity, sun damage, and stubborn pigmentation.
It produces more significant collagen stimulation than lower treatment levels, making it an excellent choice for visible skin renewal. While recover is longer than our lighter treatment levels, the results are often transformative for the right candidate.
Benefits of Full Skin Rejuvenation
- Reduces brown spots and sun damage
- Improves hyperpigmentation
- Softens moderate wrinkles
- Tightens loose skin
- Improves overall skin firmness
- Refines rough texture
- Stimulates collagen production for up to 6 months after treatment
- Creates brighter, healthier, more youthful-looking skin
Because collagen continues developing long after your treatment, improvements become more noticeable over several months. For optimal cumulative results, we generally recommend a series of 3-4 treatments, depending on your individual skin concerns and goals.
Recovery and Downtime
One of the biggest differences between our treatment levels is recovery. The FreshPeel has little to no downtime, while the Skin Booster involves mild downtime. There is temporary redness and light flaking that typically resolves quickly.
Full Skin Rejuvenation requires more healing time. Most clients' experience redness, swelling, and peeling for approximately 3-10 days, depending on the intensity of the treatment and individual healing responses.
During your initial consultation, your medical aesthetician will explain what to expect and provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you heal comfortably and achieve the best possible results.
