during your 1:1 consultation, we will help you discover which treatments are best for your goals.

WHAT YOU CAN expect

TREATMENT

We start with a thorough consultation to evaluate your skin condition and determine if you're a good candidate. On treatment day, arrive with clean skin free of makeup. We apply topical anesthetic cream and allow up to 60 minutes for full numbing. During treatment, you'll feel some heat, tingling, and mild discomfort as the laser precisely resurfaces your skin.

RECOVERY

Expect more downtime than gentler treatments but significantly less than traditional CO2 lasers due to the unique way our Helix device delivers pulses to your skin. You'll leave the appointment with any topical skincare and other resources that might be needed to support your recovery.

RESULTS

You'll see improvement as soon as two weeks, as damaged layers are removed, revealing brighter, smoother skin underneath. Long-lasting improvements in skin tone and texture continue developing as stimulated collagen production and enhanced cell turnover work over the next 6 to 9 months, rejuvenating your skin. Many patients have reported that their final results last for multiple years.

TESTIMONIALS

Helix CO2 Laser FAQ

What is Helix CO2 laser skin resurfacing?

This treatment addresses a range of skin concerns, such as fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, acne scars, and uneven texture. By targeting specific areas of the skin with controlled thermal energy, the Helix CO2 laser stimulates collagen production and promotes cell turnover for overall rejuvenation.

What makes the Helix CO2 laser different from other lasers?

The Helix CO₂ is a next-generation resurfacing laser that combines fractional ablative CO₂ with a non-ablative 1570nm wavelength. Translation? It smooths out deep wrinkles, sun damage, scars, and texture issues while also stimulating collagen deep below the surface—all in one treatment. Most lasers can do one of these things. Helix does both. It is a proven go-to without having to do surgery!

Is CoolPeel® the same as the Helix CO2 laser?

Not exactly. Helix CO2 is the advanced laser platform. It has multiple treatment settings ranging from aggressive resurfacing to gentle refreshers.

CoolPeel® is one of the most popular treatment protocols that can be performed with the Helix. It’s designed to deliver a lighter, controlled CO2 treatment that improves skin tone, texture, and fine lines with minimal downtime—usually just a few days of pinkness.

Think of it this way:

Helix CO2 = the powerhouse device
CoolPeel® = one of the customizable modes on that device, perfect for patients who want visible results without the longer recovery of a deep resurfacing session.

At Cassie Lane, we offer both full Helix resurfacing and CoolPeel® treatments, so you can choose the intensity that best fits your skin goals and lifestyle.

What can the Helix CO2 laser skin resurfacing treatment improve?

Didn't older CO₂ lasers mean long, difficult recovery?

Yes. Traditional CO₂ treatments were full-field ablative—they treated the entire surface at once. While results could be dramatic, the downtime was equally significant, with weeks of raw, red skin.

That’s why the innovation of fractional CO₂ changed everything. Instead of blasting the whole surface, fractional devices like the Helix deliver energy in a pixelated pattern.

Think of:

Full-field CO₂ = water pouring straight out of a hose. The whole spot is soaked.
Fractional CO₂ = water spraying from a showerhead. Only certain streams hit the skin, while untouched areas remain intact.

This leaves healthy tissue in between the treated zones, which dramatically speeds healing, reduces risks, and shortens downtime—all without sacrificing the powerful results CO₂ is known for.

is it safe for all skin types?

Yes,the Helix CO₂ is designed with safety in mind for all skin types. Thanks to its dual-wavelength technology and the ability to fine-tune the ratio of ablative vs. non-ablative energy, our providers can tailor treatments that are both effective and safe, even for more pigmented skin tones. This level of customization is what sets Helix apart from older CO₂ devices, which carried higher risks of post-treatment complications in darker skin.

At Cassie Lane, we use that precision to make sure every treatment is as safe, effective, and personalized as possible.
