While common, skin concerns including wrinkles, fine lines, and acne can be frustrating. Thankfully, there are minimally invasive, high-tech options available to restore confidence without requiring extensive downtime or uncomfortable side effects. Advanced laser treatments can improve the overall appearance of the skin by stimulating new collagen. One such option available to Detroit-area patients is Cool Touch III Plus.
What is Cool Touch III Plus?
Cool Touch III Plus is a laser treatment that is also known as CoolBreeze. The treatment is intended to treat a range of visible signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles by restoring natural collagen. In addition, Cool Touch III Plus can be used to treat acne. The system utilizes intense pulsed light, or IPL, as well as radio frequencies to trigger collagen production. Cool Touch III Plus is a safe and suitable option for a wide range of patients.
The Cool Touch III Plus Procedure
During the Cool Touch III Plus treatment, you will be given dark glasses to protect your eyes. In addition, a protective coolant is applied to the skin to help maintain your comfort throughout the procedure. The IPL and radio frequency energy is then directed to the skin through the specialized Cool Touch III Plus handpiece. Depending on the size of the treatment area, Cool Touch III Plus treatment takes between 10 and 30 minutes to complete. The treatment is pain-free.

After Cool Touch III Plus Treatment
Cool Touch III Plus treatment requires no downtime. However, it does result in photosensitivity. For this reason, it is important to avoid direct sun exposure and use SPF as directed.
Results from Cool Touch III Plus treatment are immediately visible. Patients will notice reduced fine lines and wrinkles with smoother and more luminous skin. These results will continue to improve over time as additional collagen develops.
Cool Touch III Plus results are long-lasting, however, they are not permanent. In most cases, it is recommended that patients receive treatment at least once a month for about four to six months in total. This varies depending on your treatment goals, the severity of your skin concerns, and more. During a consultation, a customized treatment plan can be determined for you.
