Skin and laser
A visual overview of face and neck resurfacing, skin concerns and combined treatment planning.
The guide describes CO2 treatment for fine lines, wrinkles, crepey skin, sun damage, age spots, uneven tone/texture, enlarged pores and loss of firmness. It discusses collagen and firmer-looking skin.
The handout presents face and neck care together as an approach to a balanced appearance, including loose neck skin, fine lines and texture. Device, intensity and suitability need individual assessment.
A pair of facial images is labeled “Real Results,” Before and After. The supplied file does not establish the source, timing or permission for these comparisons.
The poster advises avoiding direct sun before and after the procedure, wearing sunglasses, a wide-brimmed hat or face shield outdoors, using sunscreen once healed as directed, and following individualized post-procedure instructions.
First Choice Medical Center, Prescott, Arizona. The handout lists 928-888-9750.
Skin and laser
A landscape handout covering face and neck concerns, the visit and post-treatment protection.
The handout describes CO2 resurfacing as focused light used to remove damaged skin cells and stimulate remodeling. It discusses face and neck treatment for lines, texture, sun-related changes, tone, pores and firmness.
The guide lists horizontal lines, loose or crepey skin, texture, firmness and discoloration. Treatment on the neck requires an individual plan.
The poster lists consultation, medical-history review and pretreatment instructions. It describes numbing or local anesthesia as needed and a 60–90-minute face/neck procedure. It lists redness, swelling and mild peeling for three to seven days, follow-up, visible improvement in one to two weeks and remodeling over subsequent months. Recovery depends on the actual procedure; confirm these estimates with the clinician.
The handout recommends avoiding direct sun, using outdoor protection and sunscreen once skin has healed as directed, and following individual post-procedure instructions. It presents combined face/neck care as an option to discuss.
First Choice Medical Center, Prescott, Arizona. The handout lists 928-888-9750.
Aftercare
A combined NEOVA care handout and CO2 healing timeline, with individual clinician instructions taking priority.
The NEOVA handout is labeled for CO2/ablative resurfacing and CoolPeel. It says to follow the treating physician’s individual instructions when they differ from the handout. Product use and the recovery timetable require confirmation for the exact treatment.
The guide says to cleanse gently with NEOVA Cu3 Gentle Cleanser if instructed, apply NEOVA Pure Copper Mask as directed, keep hands clean and avoid unnecessary touching. On days one to two it describes gentle morning/evening cleansing, patting dry, avoiding rubbing/scrubbing/exfoliating/picking, cool compresses if instructed (no ice directly on skin), and a clean pillowcase.
The poster says to continue gentle skin care and sun protection, resume actives only when the clinician confirms healing, and avoid NEOVA 5-Second Daily Peel until specifically cleared because it contains exfoliating acids and a retinoid. It lists redness, warmth, mild swelling, tightness, dryness, flaking/crusting and temporary sensitivity. Attend follow-up and contact the office with concerns.
Avoid direct sun before and after the procedure; wear a wide-brimmed hat and a face shield as directed. Follow the clinician’s instructions about sunscreen and return to regular products.
The artwork gives the following illustrative sequence: days zero to one, redness/warmth/swelling, tightness and possible mild oozing or pinpoint bleeding; days two to three, crusting, tightness and dryness; days four to five, flaking and peeling without picking; days six to seven, a new skin barrier with possible residual pinkness; beyond day seven, continued remodeling over weeks to months. It states a four-to-seven-day re-epithelialization period and three-to-six-month full-result timeline; these are not a personalized recovery forecast.
The listed products are NEOVA Cu3 Gentle Cleanser, Pure Copper Mask as directed and 5-Second Daily Peel only after clearance. The guide encourages rest, hydration, nourishing food and patience.
First Choice Medical Center, Prescott, Arizona. The handout lists 928-888-9750.
Aftercare
A standalone portrait version of the recovery timeline supplied by the clinic.
The handout describes re-epithelialization in four to seven days after CO2 resurfacing. Recovery varies by treatment and patient; follow individual clinician instructions.
Days zero to one: redness, warmth, swelling, tight/sensitive skin and possible mild oozing or pinpoint bleeding. Days two to three: a thin crust, tightness and dryness; moisturize as directed.
Days four to five: crust and dead skin flake and peel; do not pick, and continue gentle care and hydration. Days six to seven: the guide describes a new barrier, decreasing redness/sensitivity and possible residual pinkness.
The guide describes continued collagen remodeling over weeks to months and full results developing over three to six months. This is the poster’s general timeline, not an individual recovery prediction.

Consultation first, then treatment planning if the service fits.
Pricing
Use these prices for planning only. The office confirms the current quote after reviewing fit, treatment area or program, product or equipment when relevant, dose or session sequence, and current pricing.
Planning details
A service page can help you prepare, but it cannot decide the treatment plan. The useful next step is a focused consultation that compares your goals, health history, timing, and alternatives.
Ask whether CoolPeel CO2 matches the concern, skin type, treatment area, and goal or whether another skin or laser option should be reviewed first. Device choice and settings should follow assessment rather than a service name alone.
Bring up upcoming events, travel, outdoor plans, recent sun exposure, medications, and prior treatments. Prescott patients often plan around work, hiking, golf, lake days, and seasonal sun exposure, so timing can matter as much as the service name.
Before scheduling, ask how pricing is calculated, what follow-up may be needed, what changes should prompt a call, and how progress is reviewed. A clear plan should include realistic expectations instead of a specific outcome prediction.

Answers are for treatment planning, not diagnosis or specific outcome prediction. The final recommendation should come from consultation.
CoolPeel is a controlled CO2 resurfacing approach. Your consultation should explain how the settings and downtime compare for your skin.
Plan ahead. Redness, peeling, or sensitivity can occur, and timing depends on intensity and your skin response.
CoolPeel CO2 may be discussed when your goals match the service, your health history supports treatment, and the expected timing feels realistic. The consultation reviews your concerns, medications, prior procedures, skin or body factors, and alternatives before any plan is recommended. Candidacy is individual, and some patients may need another service or a medical evaluation first.
The visit starts with goals, history, and treatment-area review. You can discuss fit, risks, expected visit flow, aftercare, and whether a series or staged plan makes sense. For Prescott patients comparing options, consultation is also the right time to ask about timing around sun exposure, events, travel, medications, and follow-up needs.
Quoted by area and treatment intensity. Final cost can change based on area, dose, device settings, product choice, labs, medication needs, or session count. You should receive the exact quote before treatment so the planned visit, timing, and total expected cost are clear before moving forward.
Visit time: Often 45-75 minutes. Downtime: Varies by intensity and skin response. Care: Strict post-care and sun protection matter. These details are planning guides, not outcome predictions. Your visit length, downtime, number of sessions, and follow-up schedule depend on the selected plan and how your body or skin responds.
Patients often compare CoolPeel CO2 with related aesthetic options before booking. The appropriate sequence depends on the concern, anatomy, skin type, timing, budget, and tolerance for downtime. The consultation can review whether to start with one service, stage treatment, or avoid combining services too closely together.
