It’s our most powerful treatment: a full ablative CO2 laser resurfacing that delivers the most dramatic skin transformation available outside of a surgical procedure — visibly tighter, smoother, younger-looking skin, often in a single session.
Beyond What a Facial Can Reach
There comes a point where sun damage stops responding to good skincare. The spots return each summer, the lines settle in a little deeper, and no facial — however pleasant — reaches the layers where the damage actually lives. That’s the point where CO2 laser resurfacing in Cutler Bay earns its place: a medical-grade treatment that removes damaged skin and instructs what’s beneath to rebuild. Skin Plus Beauty is a short drive up US-1 in Pinecrest, where our licensed specialists work on the Deka CO2 platform — the kind of equipment you won’t find behind a strip-mall storefront, operated by people who’ve spent years mastering it.
Choose Your Depth, Not Someone Else’s Package
CO2 resurfacing isn’t one treatment — it’s a spectrum, and we prescribe from the whole of it. A gentle CoolPeel session refreshes texture and tone with little to no downtime. Our Total Skin Renewal treatment works at full ablative depth for deep wrinkles, acne scarring, and decades of accumulated sun — the treatment detailed on our CO2 Laser Resurfacing in Pinecrest page. Between them sits Fusion, which pairs surface resurfacing with deep collagen remodeling in a single appointment. Your skin dictates the choice; our specialists simply read it honestly.

Here’s What You Can Count On
Step 1: Consultation
Your specialist examines what the sun has actually done to your skin — not just what shows — and recommends a depth with plain talk about recovery.
Step 2: Treatment
Thorough numbing, then a precisely controlled Deka CO2 pass. Even our deepest treatment finishes within the hour.
Step 3: Healing, Guided
You leave with a written recovery plan and our direct line. New collagen keeps refining your results long after the peeling ends.
Get the Most From Your Treatment
-
Avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least 2 weeks before your appointment, and wear a broad-spectrum (UVA/UVB) SPF 30+ sunscreen daily.
-
Stop retinols and other products that may dry out your skin 2-7 days before treatment, as directed by your provider.
-
Discontinue all exfoliating products (scrubs, glycolic/salicylic acids, at-home peels) 1 week before treatment.
-
Avoid aspirin and blood-thinning supplements for 7 days prior, or as directed by your provider.
-
You must be off Accutane for at least 3 months (or as directed by your provider).
-
If you have a history of cold sores, let us know — we'll have you start an antiviral medication before your treatment.
-
If you're prone to hyperpigmentation, your provider may recommend pre-treating with a melanin-suppressing (brightening) agent twice daily for 2 weeks before your visit.
-
Arrive with clean skin — no makeup, lotion, or sunscreen on the treatment area.
-
Expect redness, swelling, and a strong sunburn sensation for the first 1–3 days. Sleep with your head elevated on a clean pillowcase to minimize swelling.
-
Keep the treated skin moist at all times with the healing ointment your provider recommends — do not let it dry out or scab.
-
Your skin will peel and flake during the first week as new skin comes in. Do not pick, rub, scrub, or exfoliate — let it shed naturally.
-
Cleanse gently as directed with a mild cleanser and lukewarm water, then blot dry and reapply your healing ointment.
-
Take any prescribed medications (including antivirals) exactly as directed.
-
Use a cool misting spray or a clean, cool compress (never ice) for comfort.
-
Sun protection becomes your daily discipline after CO2 laser resurfacing in Cutler Bay — SPF 30+ every morning once your specialist clears you, no exceptions.
-
Avoid exercise, sweating, saunas, and hot tubs for at least 1 week, or as directed by your provider.
-
No makeup until your provider clears you — typically after the first week, mineral-based only.
-
Avoid retinols, acids, and active skincare until cleared — usually 2 or more weeks.
-
Call us right away with any signs of infection, unusual pain, or concerns during your recovery.
Frequently Asked Questions
CoolPeel treats only the superficial layer, and Fusion adds deep collagen stimulation — both with minimal downtime. Total Skin Renewal goes deeper than any other option on our menu, treating deep wrinkles and significant laxity, with about one week of downtime for maximum results.
Patients with deep wrinkles, significant skin laxity, severe sun damage, or acne scarring — or anyone ready for a complete reset who wants real, lasting results without surgery. Your first appointment is a personalized consultation to confirm this is the right treatment for you.
We thoroughly numb the treatment area to keep you comfortable. Afterward, expect a strong sunburn sensation for the first few days — we’ll guide you through managing it.
Plan for approximately one week of social downtime as your skin peels and renews. Most patients are comfortable being out and about — with mineral makeup — after about a week.
You’ll see fresh, renewed skin as soon as healing completes, and results keep improving for months as collagen rebuilds — peaking around the three-month mark, with results that can last for years.
Many patients achieve their goals in a single session. For the most significant concerns, a second session can build on your results — your provider will design your plan at your consultation.
