Tetra CO2 with CoolPeel reduces discomfort and downtime by combining two advanced technologies. The Tetra CO2 laser uses controlled bursts of light to penetrate deep into the skin, removing imperfections and stimulating collagen production for firmer, smoother skin.
The CoolPeel feature cools the skin during treatment, providing relief and reducing the risk of thermal damage. This makes it ideal for sensitive areas where traditional laser treatments may be too painful.
When the cosmetic industry first began utilizing cosmetic laser treatment, there was a significant amount of pain and recovery involved in the process—though this was still significantly less than traditional invasive surgeries. However, Tetra CO2 with CoolPeel is specifically designed to reduce discomfort and downtime by utilizing two advanced technologies simultaneously.
Tetra CO2 lasers use controlled bursts of light that penetrate deep into the dermal layers. On the surface layer, these pulses of light destroy the imperfections that lie within. Meanwhile, collagen production is stimulated within the dermis layers through the managed heat of the lasers. With improved collagen production, the patient’s skin will become firmer and smoother.
While the skin is being heated, the CoolPeel setting of the Tetra CO2 laser device cools the skin. This not only offers relief during the procedure but also minimizes the possibility of thermal damage and allows the treatment area to be heated more rapidly. Typically, this treatment option is especially optimal for thin areas of skin that are prone to pain during traditional laser treatments.
Tetra CO2 with CoolPeel is a versatile treatment suitable for many individuals looking to improve their skin’s appearance. However, certain factors should be considered to ensure it’s the best option for you.
The various functions of the Tetra CO2 with CoolPeel laser treatment make it uniquely customizable to each patient and their goals. Your customized laser treatment plan will be discussed during your initial consultation with Aesthetic Renewal Medispa. During the consultation, you should ask any question you may have, address your medical history and any medical conditions, and discuss your goals. This treatment is vital to ensuring your aesthetic goals are met as seamlessly as possible.
There are no anesthetic agents required with Tetra CO2 with CoolPeel, but patients with a low pain tolerance may opt to use a topical numbing agent to ensure there is no discomfort. Treatments generally last anywhere from fifteen to twenty minutes, though exact timing can vary. Once numbing sets in, the Tetra CO2 with CoolPeel device moves back and forth along the entire treatment area—no pain is associated with this procedure, but patients may feel a sense of pressure during their session.
Results from Tetra CO2 with CoolPeel laser treatments become apparent much sooner than traditional laser treatment methods. Generally, results are noticeable about one to two weeks post-procedure. However, full results will continue to improve for three to six months after treatment. As the skin improves, patients will see a reduction in wrinkles, scars, sun damage, under-eye circles, pigmentation, and dull skin.
Unlike most other cosmetic procedures and laser treatments, Tetra CO2 with CoolPeel requires nearly no downtime. Certain patients may need a few days to let the treated area heal, but patients should anticipate returning to their normal schedules the day after the procedure. You will receive specialized instructions following your sessions—follow these to the letter for the smoothest possible recovery and enhanced results.
