Vaporize Signs of Aging
Time is rarely kind to our skin, but that doesn’t mean it only gets worse from here. Yes, we accumulate layers of dead and damaged skin as the years pass. But by removing the outer layers, we can retake the upper hand against time.
Deep laser resurfacing is a safe and effective tool for removing those outer layers, stimulating new growth and collagen production as well as tightening the skin.
We provide deep laser resurfacing in Kansas City to reduce signs of aging and undo years of damage—from fine lines and wrinkles to sagging skin and age spots.

How Laser Resurfacing Works
Laser resurfacing uses specific wavelengths of light to remove the top layer of skin, revealing a new, healthy layer below. This process also boosts collagen and elastin production—both proteins that give your skin structure, support, and elasticity.
At Regain, we offer the CoolPeel for laser resurfacing in Kansas City. This unique ablative laser delivers short pulses of light at high peak power and low energy levels.
To put it simply: it reduces the amount of heat delivered to your skin, which not only prevents thermal damage but also spares you from the long social downtime associated with traditional lasers. Instead, you only need to expect 24 hours of downtime after each treatment.
Here’s what CoolPeel can do for you.
Reverse Sun Damage
Prolonged sun exposure can speed up visible aging, often leading to hyperpigmentation, skin laxity, sun spots, and dullness. CoolPeel uses CO2 laser energy to create tiny, controlled injuries in sun-damaged skin, stimulating collagen production and cell turnover to reveal healthier skin
Improve Skin Texture & Tone
CoolPeel encourages skin regeneration—the process of replacing old, damaged skin cells with new, healthy ones. This process boosts collagen and elastin production for long-lasting improvements to your skin’s health. Plus, it softens rough patches, addresses scarring, and smooths uneven texture while giving you a more radiant and brighter complexion.
Softens Fine Lines & Wrinkles
As it boosts collagen and elastin, our CoolPeel for laser resurfacing in Kansas City can give your skin the tools it needs to remain firm, smooth, and resilient over time. This makes CoolPeel a powerful treatment for improving early signs of aging, leaving your skin refreshed, polished, and more youthful.
The Process for Laser Resurfacing at Regain
Consultation
It all starts with a free consultation, where we discuss your concerns and assess your skin.
At your first appointment, we also have you step in front of our Visia Photo Imaging System so we can truly assess your skin health, determine if laser resurfacing is right for you, and estimate how many sessions you’ll need for best results. Next, we prepare you for treatment.
Treatment
We start by cleaning and prepping your skin before each session for laser resurfacing in Kansas City.
CoolPeel is generally a quick and painless process. However, you may experience something similar to the sensation of a sunburn as we glide the handpiece across your skin and target areas of sun damage, fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores, or dullness.
Results
Full results build as increased collagen and elastin production improves skin's structure and elasticity over time.
While full results take time to develop, most patients see initial results after just 10 days. Final improvements may appear over the course of 3 to 6 months. Keeping up with a good at-home skincare routine can support your results from laser resurfacing.
Track Your Progress With Visia Photo Imaging
Your results speak for themselves; you’ll notice smoother skin, a brighter complexion, and fewer wrinkles with each session. The best way to track these improvements is our cutting-edge Visia Photo Imaging System for facial analysis.
This imaging allows us to see deeper than surface level, so we can truly analyze the health of your skin and how it benefits from laser resurfacing in Kansas City. As time passes, this system may show you a fresher, more youthful version of yourself every time you step in front of our camera.

Pair Your Laser Resurfacing With These Treatments
Microneedling
Microneedling also stimulates collagen and elastin production to help give you clear, healthy, and radiant skin. Instead of using the power of light, this treatment uses tiny hair-like needles. By creating controlled injuries on your skin, it stimulates your body’s natural healing processes and ramps up collagen and elastin production.
At Regain, we offer RF microneedling, which adds a little bit of heat to traditional microneedling. This heat reaches deep into the middle layer of your skin (the dermis) for even greater production of collagen and elastin and enhanced results.
You can also pair your microneedling treatment with the Vampire Facial, which uses a platelet-rich concentrate containing growth factors and proteins, made from your own blood.
When applied to your skin, this concentrate amplifies your body’s healing ability and gives you a deep skin rejuvenation treatment.
At Regain, we are the only certified provider of the Vampire Facial in the KC metropolitan area.
Learn how this treatment can support the results of your laser resurfacing in Kansas City from our team.
HydraFacial
This 3-step facial involves cleansing, extracting, and hydrating, a lineup that pairs perfectly with just about any skin rejuvenation treatment, including laser resurfacing in Kansas City.
We customize the HydraFacial to your unique needs, which means that we can address:
- Dullness
- Oily skin
- Dry skin
- Acne
- Wrinkles
- And much more
Not only that, but it’s a great follow-up treatment to your CoolPeel session because it can support healing.
Red Light Therapy
Red light therapy uses low levels of red light to stimulate your mitochondria—the powerhouse of each cell. Red light gives them a boost of power to improve blood circulation and reduces inflammation.
For stretch marks, sun damage, and even thinning hair, we love to use the power of red light therapy to help boost your confidence.
Motus AZ+
This is another light-based treatment that we offer at Regain. The Motus AZ+ is a broadband light (BBL) device that uses Moveo technology to emit visible and infrared light.
This painlessly and quickly stimulates collagen production and improves skin tone. Not only can it treat spider veins, sun damage, and broken capillaries, but it also gets rid of unwanted hair.

Before each session of laser resurfacing in Kansas City, please follow these instructions:
- Refrain from direct sun exposure and avoid self-tanning in the 4 weeks leading up to your treatment day.
- Avoid skincare products that contain Retin-A, retinol, alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), and glycolic acid for at least 1 week before your laser treatment.
- Discontinue taking any anti-inflammatory or blood-thinning medications or supplements at least 3 days before each session, talking to your general practitioner before pausing any prescription medications.
Additionally, please arrive at your appointment with clean, makeup-free skin.
Although the downtime for this treatment is only 24 hours, it takes at least 7 to 10 days for your skin to fully recover. For best results and accelerated healing, we send you home with home care products that can also support your results. In addition to following our recommended skin care routine, please follow these instructions:
- Use a cold compress to relieve any swelling or redness.
- Avoid hot water and only use gentle facial cleansers for 2 to 3 days after each treatment.

We recommend avoiding direct sun exposure as a regular lifestyle habit for healthier skin and the best results. Our team can recommend sunscreen products and other lifestyle choices, like wearing sun-protective clothing, to help keep your skin safe from harmful UV rays.
We recommend scheduling your laser and light therapies in the fall and winter, when you’re less tempted to be in the sun and the hours of direct sunlight are lower.
However, we won’t turn you away for this treatment in May, June, July, or August. We can talk about the best timeline for you when you come in for your free consultation.
No matter what, we always recommend staying out of the sun and applying sunscreen.
