At $1,900 for a single treatment, this advanced CO2 laser treatment addresses multiple skin concerns in just one session with a one-week downtime.

Frequently asked questions about Secret™ PRO
What can I expect from my Secret™ PRO treatment?
- During your free consultation, we will make sure you are a candidate for the treatment. Our specialists will evaluate your skin concerns, discuss your goals, and create a treatment plan that targets the areas where Secret™ PRO can be performed.
- During the treatment, you will feel gentle heat and some tingling as the RF microneedling and CO2 laser work their magic.
- Right after your session, you can expect mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity, similar to a sunburn. These effects usually subside within a few days.
- Over the next few weeks, your skin will continue to heal and rejuvenate as collagen production is stimulated. You’ll notice smoother texture, improved tone, and a firmer appearance.
- Results become more pronounced over time as your skin produces new collagen and elastin. Removal of skin irregularities like warts and moles is permanent. Downtime will vary according to procedure and patient; some might need only 1 session with 1-week downtime, whereas others might need 1–3 sessions spaced a few weeks apart with minimal or no downtime after each session.
How is Secret™ PRO different from other similar treatments?
- Combined technologies in 1 session: Secret™ PRO is different from most devices in that it can combine CO2 laser and RF microneedling in 1 single session.
- Options for downtime and number of sessions: Secret™ PRO technology offers patients the option to have one intensive treatment. Patients can choose a deeper CO2 session once a year with about a week of downtime for more dramatic results. Alternatively, they can do three lighter sessions with minimal or no downtime, achieving similar outcomes over time.
- Surgical handpiece for skin imperfections: The surgical handpiece can cut and remove various skin irregularities, including moles, warts, skin tags, and other raised lesions. It can also address excess eyelid skin or other superficial concerns that typically require minor surgical intervention.
- Treats Darker Skin Tones: Secret™ PRO includes specialized settings and handpieces safe for darker skin tones, a feature not all devices offer.
- Wide Range of Conditions Treated: Secret™ PRO treats acne scars, surgical or traumatic scars, crepey skin, and fine lines, tightens skin, reduces wrinkles, improves overall skin texture, addresses pigment irritation issues, superficial sun damage, irregularities on both face and body and removes growths and lessons, expanding treatment possibilities beyond standard resurfacing.
How can I maintain my results after my last Secret™ PRO session?
- Sun Protection: Use a high-SPF sunscreen daily to prevent sun damage and prolong your results.
- Skincare Routine: Invest in quality skincare products to nourish and protect your skin.
- Maintenance Treatments: Annual or semi-annual touch-up sessions can help maintain the effects over time. The maintenance treatment will vary from patient to patient.
Is there downtime after Secret™ PRO Treatment?
Secret PRO Refine: Typically, there is no downtime after the treatment. Your skin will have moderate redness after the treatment, which will subside significantly within a few hours. Your face will feel warm, like being in the sun, which also goes away within a few hours. You can expect to return to your normal activities immediately following your treatment. You may have some slight flushing the next day.
Secret PRO Ultra-Lite: Immediately after your treatment, your skin will be pink, feel very warm, and sensitive to touch. Your provider will offer a topical skincare regimen following the treatment to optimize treatment results. The next day, you will notice a pattern forming over the treatment area from the microscopic perforations that will begin to scab and sluff off over the next few days. The exfoliation process typically lasts 3-4 days.
Secret PRO Ultra (CO2 Fractional Resurfacing): Right after your treatment, your skin will be red, feel hot as if you have a sunburn, and very sensitive to touch. Your provider will offer a topical skincare regimen following the treatment to improve your comfort and the healing process.

The exfoliation process typically lasts 5-7 days.
Secret PRO Revive (RF Microneedling & CO2 Fractional Resurfacing): The amount of downtime depends on the skin conditions being treated. Superficial procedures will only require a few days to heal, while deeper treatments may require a week or longer.

How Does Secret™ PRO Work?
Secret™ PRO uniquely combines Microneedling RF and CO2 Laser Resurfacing in 1 session to address your skin’s unique needs:
- Microneedling RF (Secret RF)
Tiny needles penetrate the skin to deliver radiofrequency energy to the deeper layers. This stimulates collagen production and tightens the skin from within, improving texture and firmness. - CO2 Laser Resurfacing
The CO2 laser removes the damaged outer layers of skin, revealing fresh, smooth skin underneath while encouraging the natural production of collagen and elastin.
Together, these treatments create a synergistic effect, offering dramatic results with customized downtime.
