Dynamic Duo 2
True skin transformation requires addressing both the surface you see and the foundational layers beneath. The Dynamic Duo is a high-performance treatment that pairs the deep-reaching collagen stimulation of VirtueRF Microneedling with the precision resurfacing of the CO2 CoolPeel®. This layered treatment effectively erases years of sun damage while tightening the skin’s structure, providing dramatic renewal at every level.
Choosing an experienced provider is essential to the safety and efficacy of this advanced skin treatment. Our medical team has years of experience in these specific technologies, as well as a deep understanding of skin biology. Each treatment is meticulously calibrated to your specific skin tone and concerns to deliver transformative results. The Dynamic Duo visibly improves both firmness and texture, restoring a toned, radiant complexion. We invite you to visit our Fort Wayne or Angola offices to discover why the Dynamic Duo is the most sought-after treatment for those who refuse to compromise on their skin care.

Most sessions are completed in 60 to 75 minutes.
Minimal social downtime; expect 24–48 hours of redness similar to a sunburn.
The Dynamic Duo is a multi-layered skin rejuvenation strategy that utilizes two of the most advanced technologies in the aesthetic industry. First, VirtueRF Microneedling delivers radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis via gold-plated needles to lift and tighten the skin. Immediately following, the CO2 CoolPeel® targets the superficial layer of the skin using extremely short pulses of light to remove damaged tissue. This comprehensive approach provides top-to-bottom renewal, treating deep wrinkles and laxity while smoothing out fine lines, large pores, and sunspots on the surface.
Your session begins with the application of a high-strength topical numbing cream to ensure total comfort. Once the skin is prepared, your provider performs the VirtueRF Microneedling treatment. You may feel light pressure and a warm tingling sensation during this step. This is immediately followed by the CoolPeel® laser pass, which moves quickly across the skin. Thanks to the device's advanced cooling technology, the process is very tolerable. You will leave our office with a specialized post-treatment serum to jumpstart your healing.
This versatile treatment is primarily used on the face, neck, and décolleté. It is specifically designed to address:
Deep Laxity
Sagging skin or jowling along the jawline and neck.
Surface Texture
Rough skin, large pores, and acne scarring.
Pigmentation
Sun damage, brown spots, and uneven skin tone.
Etched Lines
Stubborn wrinkles around the eyes and mouth.
The Dynamic Duo is the one-stop solution to flawless skin! The deep collagen-stimulating benefits of RF Microneedling plus the impressive superficial results of the Cool Peel® treatment – it’s the ultimate equation for beautiful skin.

The Dynamic Duo is an excellent choice if you wish to address both sagging and surface damage. It is ideal for patients who want a noticeable change without the risks or downtime of surgery. During your consultation, we will assess your goals, skin concerns, and medical history to ensure this dual-laser approach is safe for you.
Because both VirtueRF and CoolPeel® are designed to protect surrounding tissue, recovery is typically smooth. You will likely experience redness and a warm sensation for the first 24 to 48 hours, similar to a moderate sunburn. As the skin heals, it may feel dry or have a "sandpaper" texture for a few days. We recommend a gentle skincare routine, plenty of hydration, and strict sun protection with a professional-grade SPF to ensure the best possible outcome.
You can expect to see an immediate brightening of the skin within a week as the surface layer exfoliates. However, the most significant results develop over the next three to six months. As the VirtueRF stimulates new collagen and elastin deep within the dermis, you will notice a visible lifting and tightening of your facial contours. These results are durable and provide a long-lasting improvement in both the health and appearance of your skin.

With medical-grade numbing cream and the advanced cooling systems of the VirtueRF and CoolPeel®, most patients find the treatment surprisingly comfortable. You may feel heat and light pressure, but the experience is far less intense than traditional CO2 resurfacing.
While a single session provides a noticeable improvement, we typically recommend a series of three treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal results. This cumulative approach ensures maximum collagen remodeling.
We recommend waiting at least 24 to 48 hours before applying makeup. This allows the micro-channels created during the treatment to close and ensures the skin can breathe during the initial healing phase.
A chemical peel works chemically on the surface, whereas the Dynamic Duo works mechanically and thermally across all layers of the skin. The Duo provides structural lifting and tightening that a chemical peel cannot achieve.
The "Cool" in CoolPeel® refers to the lack of unnecessary heat damage to surrounding tissue. This precision technology ensures that only the intended areas are treated, significantly reducing the risk of complications like scarring or hyperpigmentation.
