We understand how acne scars and sun damage can hold you back from loving your skin. That’s why here at Glow Medspa, we offer advanced CO₂ laser resurfacing options designed to renew your skin’s texture, reduce pigmentation, and restore your natural glow, all while preserving healthy surrounding tissue and ensuring optimal recovery. Whether you’ve struggled with long-standing acne scars or want to undo years of sun exposure, this treatment offers a natural and science-backed path to rejuvenation.

How CO₂ Laser Targets Deeper Layers for Smoother, Healthier Skin
Unlike surface-level treatments, CO₂ laser therapy goes beneath the skin to initiate meaningful change where it counts. We use the Tetra PRO CO₂ laser and CoolPeel technology to:
Resurface and smooth skin texture
Minimize visible acne scars and indentations
Lighten brown spots and sun-related pigmentation
Stimulate skin tightening and soften fine lines
This kind of deeper treatment helps generate results that don’t just look good, they feel good, too. Because the therapy addresses the structural causes of uneven skin, it delivers a clearer, more balanced complexion from the inside out.
Fractional Laser Science That Spares Surrounding Skin
Our CO₂ laser treatments use advanced fractional technology to target small, controlled zones of the skin while leaving surrounding tissue untouched. This approach delivers impressive rejuvenation with less downtime by creating microscopic columns that trigger a healing response without damaging the entire skin surface. The healthy skin between these treated areas supports faster recovery and more uniform results. CoolPeel offers a gentler resurfacing option with approximately 24 hours of downtime, while the Tetra PRO CO₂ treatment reaches deeper layers to stimulate collagen production with a recovery time of about 3 to 5 days. Thanks to this level of precision, we’re able to offer all the skin-renewing benefits of traditional CO₂ lasers without the prolonged healing time of older methods.
Fractional Laser Science That Spares Surrounding Skin
Powered by fractional technology, our CO₂ laser treatments target tiny, controlled zones of the skin while leaving the tissue around them intact. This allows for impressive rejuvenation with faster recovery times. Here’s how it works:
Precise Micro-Injury Zones
Microscopic laser columns penetrate the skin to create tiny, controlled “injury zones” that trigger your body’s natural healing response, stimulating new collagen and skin renewal.
Faster Healing with Surrounding Tissue Support
The untreated skin surrounding each micro-zone accelerates the healing process, helping the skin surface recover more rapidly and reducing overall downtime.
Flexible Options for Depth and Downtime
CoolPeel offers a gentler treatment with about 24 hours of recovery, while Tetra PRO CO₂ provides deeper collagen stimulation and skin resurfacing with an average of 3 to 5 days of healing.
Supporting Deeper Collagen Production While Ensuring Safety
One of the most impressive benefits of CO₂ laser treatment is its ability to stimulate collagen production while protecting the surrounding skin. During each session, laser energy gently vaporizes damaged cells without harming nearby tissue. This controlled approach reduces inflammation and allows the skin to heal smoothly. At the same time, the laser activates fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen, which triggers the body’s natural rebuilding process. The result is firmer, smoother, and more even-toned skin, all without the need for harsh chemicals or surgery.
Combining Treatments for Enhanced Results
We often combine CO₂ laser treatments with supportive therapies to accelerate healing and amplify results. One of the most effective pairings is microneedling, which creates microchannels in the skin to enhance the absorption of healing factors and stimulate even more collagen production. We also recommend exosome therapy for many clients, as it introduces regenerative signals that promote faster recovery and increase cellular turnover. Together, these therapies work in harmony with the CO₂ laser to deliver smoother, healthier skin with longer-lasting benefits.
Quick Options with CoolPeel or Deeper Renewal with Tetra PRO
We understand that everyone’s lifestyle is different, which is why we offer both CoolPeel and Tetra PRO options:
CoolPeel CO₂ Laser
Ideal for those wanting minimal downtime and gradual improvement with a refreshed appearance
Tetra PRO CO₂ Laser
Best for those who want dramatic results with a few days of social downtime for healing
Both treatments are fully customizable and will be tailored by our experienced providers to suit your specific skin needs and goals.
