What is Laser Season anyway?
“Laser season” at Indie Lux Atelier marks the ideal time to invest in your skin’s renewal. With cooler months offering a natural break from sun exposure, it’s the perfect opportunity for transformative, science-backed treatments. We believe in precision care and thoughtful timing to ensure your skin heals optimally, leaving you refreshed and radiant for the warmer seasons ahead. Because at Indie Lux Atelier, beauty isn’t seasonal—it’s intentional.
Great, and what's CO2 resurfacing?
CO2 laser treatments work at the cellular level to stimulate collagen and elastin production, helping to smooth fine lines and deeper wrinkles, refine skin texture, and fade acne scars, blemishes, and pigmentation concerns such as age spots and sun damage.
Choosing these treatments during the cooler fall and winter months allows your skin to heal more comfortably, with less risk of sun-induced hyperpigmentation. This thoughtful timing ensures optimal results, so your skin looks refreshed and radiant when the warmer seasons arrive.
What is a DEKA® Treatment?
DEKA’s CO2 laser technology offers a more intensive skin resurfacing solution compared to the gentler CoolPeel® treatment. While both treatments utilize CO2 technology, DEKA penetrates deeper into the dermis, stimulating higher levels of collagen and elastin production. This makes it especially effective at treating deeper wrinkles, more severe acne scars, significant sun damage, and uneven texture.
Due to its greater intensity, DEKA requires a longer recovery period—ranging from several days to weeks—allowing the skin to heal fully and reveal more dramatic, long-term results. In contrast, CoolPeel® provides a lighter treatment with faster recovery but is best suited for maintaining skin tone and addressing fine lines. DEKA is ideal for patients seeking substantial improvements with comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
