Clear Away What Time Leaves Behind
Our skin records many elements of life: sunny afternoons, changing hormones, breakouts, stress, and years of facial expressions. Over time, damaged cells can collect on the surface while collagen production naturally slows.
As a result, you might notice fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores, discoloration, or acne scars that make your complexion look less even.
At Regain Functional Medicine + Aestehtics, we offer laser resurfacing in Leawood with CoolPeel, an advanced CO2 treatment that removes damaged outer layers while stimulating collagen beneath the surface. By combining precise technology with personalized skin planning, we help patients improve tone, texture, firmness, and clarity with less downtime than traditional CO2 resurfacing.

Advanced CoolPeel Technology
Regain uses CoolPeel for laser resurfacing in Leawood because it delivers controlled CO2 energy in short, precise pulses. This approach resurfaces damaged skin while limiting unnecessary heat-related changes in the surrounding tissue. Patients can improve visible signs of aging, texture, discoloration, and scarring without the extended recovery commonly associated with aggressive CO2 treatments. With less interruption to your schedule, you can still address multiple complexion concerns.
Personalized Skin Analysis
Our team evaluates your concerns, skin quality, sensitivity, treatment history, and goals before recommending a specific laser intensity. We also use VISIA Photo Imaging to document your complexion using detailed, multi-spectral captures of your skin quality. Follow-up imaging helps monitor changes over time. These insights all give us a clearer picture of your progress and guide future treatments, product recommendations, and adjustments as your skin continues to change.
Long-Term Collagen Support
Laser resurfacing does more than clear away damaged surface cells. The controlled treatment also activates the healing process that encourages new collagen production beneath the skin. As collagen develops, patients may notice continued improvements in firmness, texture, and overall skin quality. Our team recommends appropriate maintenance appointments and medical-grade skin care to help protect your results and enhance skin health between treatments.
How Laser Resurfacing at Regain Works
Laser resurfacing in Leawood uses CoolPeel CO2 technology to precisely remove damaged outer layers of skin cells while triggering renewal beneath the surface. CoolPeel delivers high peak power in short pulses, reducing lingering heat within the skin. This approach allows Regain to address complexion concerns while keeping recovery manageable for busy patients.
What CoolPeel Does Beneath the Surface
CoolPeel creates controlled micro-injuries within targeted layers of skin. Your body identifies this as damage and activates healing processes. The treated area responds by clearing damaged cells and beginning natural repairs.
That response encourages skin cell turnover and new production of collagen—a protein that gives your skin structure and support. By stimulating collagen, resurfacing treatment gradually improves:
- Texture
- Firmness
- Enlarged pores
- Fine lines
- Acne scars
Because CoolPeel limits unnecessary thermal damage to surrounding tissue, patients typically experience less redness and downtime than they would from aggressive CO2 resurfacing treatments. Your provider can also adjust the treatment settings and intensity based on your skin and goals.
What to Expect From Treatment and Recovery
Before treatment, we cleanse your skin in preparation for the treatment. Your provider then passes the CoolPeel device across the treatment area, going section by section.
Most appointments are relatively quick, although treatment time varies depending on the size and location of the area.
Afterward, your skin may feel warm, dry, or slightly rough. Most patients plan for about 24 hours of downtime. We recommend gentle skin care and consistent sunscreen while the skin heals, and patients should limit direct sun exposure during this period of increased sensitivity.
We commonly use CoolPeel to treat the face, neck, chest, and hands. Your provider helps identify the best treatment areas for your goals during your consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Laser resurfacing can treat the face, neck, chest, hands, and shoulders. These areas frequently show signs of sun exposure and damage, including uneven texture, fine lines, and changes in pigmentation.
Your provider evaluates your skin and recommends appropriate treatment areas based on your concerns, skin condition, and treatment goals.
At Regain, laser resurfacing is generally a quick and comfortable treatment. Unlike traditional CO2 lasers, CoolPeel delivers short pulses of energy, which limits excess heat within the skin.
You may experience warmth or a sensation similar to a mild sunburn during your treatment. Most patients tolerate treatment well and can expect about 24 hours of downtime afterward.
Keep your skincare routine simple while your skin heals. Use a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen according to your provider’s instructions.
Avoid picking or exfoliating peeling skin, since harsh rubbing or picking can damage the healing areas. You should also limit direct sun exposure and temporarily avoid retinoids, exfoliating acids, or other potentially irritating products.
After laser resurfacing in Leawood, our team can recommend gentle, medical-grade skin care to help protect your results and maintain healthier-looking skin between appointments.
You may begin noticing improvements within a few days as the initial redness and roughness subside and the skin renews itself. However, collagen production takes time.
Your complexion can continue changing for several months as new collagen develops beneath the surface. This gradual process can improve firmness, texture, fine lines, and overall skin quality well after your treatment series ends.
