A polished refresh for skin that’s lost its glow—subtle, effective, and built for Miami’s aesthetic elite.
Sometimes skin simply needs support—after long days in the sun, years of environmental wear, or after a period of stress. Skin resurfacing is about helping your skin feel and look like itself again — more even, more rested, more vibrant.
We offer two laser options, each selected for its ability to improve skin tone, soften fine lines, and restore texture with care. Whether you’re looking to maintain your progress or take a deeper step toward renewal, we’ll help you make a choice that feels right for your skin and your schedule.
Clear + Brilliant Laser
CoolPeel CO2 Laser
Skin resurfacing is a treatment that gently improves the surface of your skin using light-based or energy-based technology. At Surface Level, we offer two distinct options—both effective, but with different purposes.
This is our lighter option. It’s an excellent fit for those who want to maintain skin that’s already in a healthy place.
Clear + Brilliant is a fractional non-ablative laser that targets the upper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve tone, texture, and radiance—all while leaving the skin’s surface mostly intact. This is what makes it gentler than more aggressive lasers and safe for routine maintenance with minimal downtime. It helps improve brightness, soften early lines, and support even skin tone over time.
At Surface Level, we elevate Clear + Brilliant by pairing it with Ariessence’s Pure PDGF+, a platelet-derived growth factor serum that mimics your body’s regenerative properties. By stimulating cellular repair, collagen production, and tissue regeneration, this added step reduces downtime, enhances glow, and supports long-term skin health—part of our commitment to smarter, more effective care.
This option is for those ready to reset. If deeper lines, stubborn texture issues, or sun damage are starting to feel like your new normal, Level 2 goes further beneath the surface.
CoolPeel CO₂ is a modern evolution of traditional CO₂ lasers, delivering powerful results without the extended recovery of older technologies. CoolPeel allows us to tailor the treatment’s intensity based on your specific goals and tolerance for downtime. Whether you want a subtle refresh or a more dramatic reset, we precisely adjust the treatment to suit you. And thanks to its lower heat delivery, it’s safe for all seasons—including summer in Miami.
To round out the experience, we pair CoolPeel with advanced mucin-derived recovery serums. Rich in glycoproteins, growth factors, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants, these serums create a nourishing environment that allows the skin to heal more efficiently. Because while we might take vacations, our skin deserves year-round attention.
Your provider will begin with a detailed consultation and skin evaluation to understand your goals and unique skin profile. Based on this, they'll recommend either Level 1 or Level 2 resurfacing, tailored to your skin’s needs and your preferences around downtime and intensity.
You'll get a clear breakdown of what to expect in terms of treatment sensation, recovery, and outcomes, helping you make a confident decision about the best treatment for you. To ensure your complete comfort during treatment, we offer Pro-Nox—a self-administered nitrous oxide system—for those who prefer a more relaxed experience. Topical numbing cream is also applied to minimize any discomfort during treatment. Most laser skin resurfacing sessions last between 20 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated and the depth of correction needed.
During a Level 1 resurfacing treatment, your provider will gently glide the Clear + Brilliant laser across your skin, creating microscopic channels that trigger your skin’s natural healing response. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild prickling or warmth, especially with the help of a topical numbing cream applied beforehand.
Immediately after, we apply Ariessence’s Pure PDGF+ serum, a powerful growth factor concentrate that calms the skin, accelerates healing, and enhances your post-laser glow.
During a Level 2 resurfacing treatment, your provider will use CoolPeel CO₂ to deliver controlled, fractional energy into the treatment area. You'll feel a quick, warm snapping sensation as the laser works across targeted areas—most patients find it manageable with topical numbing.
After the CoolPeel treatment, we apply a mucin-derived recovery serum, rich in regenerative proteins that support faster healing, reduce inflammation, and boost the treatment’s rejuvenating properties.
We often recommend resurfacing for dull, tired, or textured skin. It may also help if you’ve started noticing:
If you're unsure whether your skin is a match, we’re always happy to take a look and talk through it together.
Enjoy clearer, smoother skin, more even tone, and a soft return of natural radiance.
With Level 1, many clients notice their skin looks more awake and balanced. This is often the right option if you’re not looking for dramatic change but want to keep your skin looking fresh between other treatments.
Level 2 offers more visible correction. It helps reduce texture, minimize sun damage, and encourage firmer skin. Combined with regenerative therapies, results tend to appear sooner and last longer.
We’ll help you make a decision that feels right, not just for your skin, but for your comfort level too.
You don’t need to have all the answers when you walk in. Many of our clients aren’t sure if they need Level 1 or Level 2—some aren’t even sure if resurfacing is the proper treatment. That’s okay.
During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin, goals, and preferences and walk you through what to expect from each treatment. From there, we’ll recommend what makes the most sense for you based on how your skin is doing now and where you’d like it to be.
Most Level 1 clients return to their day right after treatment. You might notice some warmth or redness, but nothing that requires downtime.
With Level 2, there may be a few days of light redness, dryness, or flaking. That’s normal. We’ll guide you on aftercare—what to use, what to pause, and when to come back in. Including regenerative therapy in your treatment helps reduce recovery time and keeps skin supported through the healing process.
Level 1 results often show up in a few days—your skin may feel smoother, look brighter, and hold hydration better.
Level 2 builds more gradually, with changes noticeable over the next 1–2 weeks. Texture softens, tone improves, and skin starts to feel stronger. Many clients schedule Level 2 sessions seasonally, especially when paired with supportive skincare at home.
At Surface Level, laser skin resurfacing is a curated experience built around your skin goals, your schedule, and yes, even the Miami sun. Our carefully selected technologies deliver visible results with minimal disruption, and more importantly, they’re safe to use year-round. Unlike older lasers that required weeks of recovery and strict sun avoidance, our protocols are designed to work with your lifestyle, not against it.
As part of our commitment to thoughtful care, every resurfacing treatment is paired with advanced recovery-boosting topicals—like growth factors or mucin-rich serums—to support healing and enhance your glow. Whether you're maintaining healthy skin or addressing deeper concerns, we choose treatments that deliver without compromise.

We use technology that’s safe across a wide range of skin tones. Every treatment is customized based on your skin’s unique profile. We will always recommend the safest and most effective modalities based on your skin’s unique needs.
Some clients prefer a seasonal refresh, while others come monthly for maintenance. Your provider will recommend a rhythm that makes sense for your skin and your goals.
Most clients describe the sensation as warm, with a light tingle. Numbing options are available to ensure a comfortable treatment, especially with Level 2 resurfacing.
Absolutely. Many clients pair resurfacing with injectables or facials. Your provider will advise you on what makes the most sense for your skin and the right timing for your treatments.
You’ll want to pause any exfoliants or active ingredients like retinol a few days before and after treatment. We’ll walk you through a simple prep and post-care plan.
