How It Works
The Tetra PRO CO2 laser uses fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) laser technology to target specific skin layers. It creates microthermal zones in the skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact promoting faster healing process. This controlled skin injury stimulates the body’s natural healing response, leading to the production of new collagen and elastin. The damaged skin cells are gradually replaced resulting in a smoother, more even complexion with improved texture and firmness. This new advanced CoolPeel technology reduced the downtime and recovery time compare to traditional CO2 lasers.
Who are the Ideal Candidates for CoolPeel®
The ideal candidates for CoolPeel® CO2 Laser are those looking to improve their skin’s appearance without undergoing invasive procedures. This laser is safe for all skin types and ages. CoolPeel® CO2 Laser is not recommended for individuals with skin infections or history of keloid scarring.
WHAT TO EXPECT BEFORE AND AFTER TREATMENT
Before treatment, numbing cream is applied to numb the skin and make treatment more comfortable. Laser treatment can take anywhere from 15-45 minutes depending on the depth and strength of treatment. Patients might experience minimal discomfort during treatment.
Recovery from a Tetra PRO laser treatment varies depending on the specific procedure performed. For CoolPeel® treatments, downtime is minimal, allowing patients to quickly return to their daily activities. Results are often visible shortly after the treatment, with improvements in fine lines, sun damage, pore size, and overall skin tone and texture.
Deeper ablations using DEKA technology may require a longer recovery period, but the advanced technology of the Tetra PRO ensures optimal healing and impressive results.
We’ll provide specific instructions on how to care for your skin after the treatment, such as avoiding:
- Sun exposure
- Certain skincare products
- Strenuous exercise and certain activities
You may also need to schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your skin’s progress and determine if additional treatments are necessary.

FAQ
Regarding CoolPeel® CO2 Laser Treatments
WHAT IS COOLPEEL?
CoolPeel is a brand new way to safely, and comfortably deliver the benefits of a traditional CO2 resurfacing treatment. By targeting just the superficial layer of skin tissue, damaged skin is removed revealing younger and healthier looking skin.
HOW DOES THE COOLPEEL WORK?
A CoolPeel laser treatment can only be done using the SmartXide Tetra CO2 laser. The Tetra is the latest, most advanced CO2 laser from DEKA, a global leader in aesthetic technology. Only Tetra can control its output to deliver high energy in extremely short-pulses to deliver impressive superficial, skin resurfacing results without the lingering heat that would traditionally damage the surrounding skin. The lack of unnecessary heat is why we call it cool – get it? – and how you get an immediate aesthetic effect with minimal downtime.

WHAT MAKES COOLPEEL DIFFERENT?
CO2 lasers are the gold standard in treating wrinkles, age spots, acne scars, and other blemishes as well as tighten skin and balance tone. Damaged skin tissue is removed, or ablated, stimulating new collagen production and heat energy is delivered to tighten the skin. Sounds great but CO2 treatments are often accompanied by considerable downtime and risk while damaged skin heals.Many advances have been made to improve the side effects of CO2 treatments but ONLY the CoolPeel can deliver a fractional ablative treatment without the downtime. There is minimal risk of hyperpigmentation, demarcation or induced infection.
