What CO2 Deka Treats

What To Expect During Your CO2 Deka Face Treatment

Trying something new for your skin shouldn’t be confusing or stressful. Here’s what you can expect from a typical CO2 Deka face treatment at Lauréate Aesthetics:

Consultation

Before you begin, you’ll meet with one of our experienced providers for a personal consultation. We’ll discuss your goals, review your health history, and make sure CO2 Deka is the right fit for your skin. This is also the perfect time to ask questions.

Pre-Treatment Prep

On the day of your session, we’ll begin by cleansing your skin and, if needed, applying a topical numbing cream to reduce discomfort. This typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes to take effect. If you’re feeling nervous, let us know—we’ll walk you through every step so you know exactly what to expect.

The Procedure

The actual CO2 Deka laser treatment usually takes 20 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated. Using advanced fractional laser technology, your provider will target specific zones of the skin to stimulate collagen and resurface the outer layer. Most clients describe the sensation as warm or slightly prickly, with a mild snapping feeling.

Aftercare and Downtime

After treatment, your skin may feel warm, tight, and appear red—similar to a moderate sunburn. This is completely normal and typically resolves in a few days. We’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to guide you through gentle cleansing, hydration, and what to avoid (like heat, sun exposure, and makeup) for the first 48 hours.

Recovery Expectations

Most clients return to normal activities within two to three days. You may notice some dryness, flaking, or redness during the healing process. As your skin regenerates, you’ll begin to see smoother texture, more even tone, and a refreshed, radiant appearance.

Typical Treatment Plan

While many clients see noticeable improvements after just one session, we typically recommend a series of treatments spaced four to six weeks apart for optimal results. Your provider will create a personalized plan based on your skin goals and how your skin responds to treatment.

CO2 Deka FAQs

What is the difference between Cool Peel and CO2 Deka?

Cool Peel is a lighter, low-downtime CO2 option. CO2 Deka is a deeper, more intensive treatment designed for significant rejuvenation.

Ideal for clients with deep wrinkles, acne scarring, sun damage, and aging skin seeking dramatic, long-term results.




5–10 days of redness, swelling, and peeling are common. Makeup can usually be resumed after 7–10 days.

Most clients benefit from one deep treatment, though lighter sessions may be repeated. Your provider will customize a plan for your skin.

CO2 Deka is generally best for fair to medium skin tones. A consultation is required to determine safety and efficacy for darker skin types.

If you’re noticing changes in your skin, like dullness, fine lines, or uneven texture, CO2 Deka offers a safe, effective way to refresh and restore your skin’s appearance with minimal downtime.
