What is SmartPeel CO2 Laser Treatment?

SmartPeel is a fractional CO2 laser treatment that delivers targeted energy to the skin, triggering the body's natural regenerative process. Unlike traditional CO2 resurfacing, SmartPeel is engineered to treat the skin’s surface with less thermal damage to surrounding tissue—minimizing downtime while still producing visible, long-lasting results.

It’s an ideal option for patients seeking smoother skin texture, improved clarity, and overall facial rejuvenation without the extensive healing associated with older laser technologies.

Am I a Good Candidate for SmartPeel CO2 Laser Treatment?

You may be an excellent candidate if you:

  • Are concerned with fine lines, sun spots, or uneven texture
  • Are in overall good health and not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Want noticeable results with minimal downtime
  • Have realistic expectations for non-surgical facial rejuvenation

The SmartPeel Treatment Process

After a thorough consultation and skin analysis, your treatment will begin with a gentle cleansing and numbing process.

You’ll be provided with detailed post-care instructions and high-touch follow-up to ensure a smooth and successful recovery.
