The CO2 laser is considered the gold standard in the treatment of wrinkles, signs of aging, and many other skin imperfections. The Cartessa-selected Tetra CO2 is highly versatile. This anti-aging machine can treat a full range of aesthetic needs — from a full skin-resurfacing treatment (which has a longer recovery period but can deliver dramatic results in one session) to the unique CoolPeel™ treatment.
CoolPeel™ is an advanced laser treatment that reduces the appearance of fine lines, sun damage, and pores. It also improves skin texture with little to no downtime. The Tetra CO2 is the only technology that can perform a CoolPeel™ because of the unique pulse control needed.
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.
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. 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.
WHAT MAKES COOLPEEL DIFFERENT?
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. While there is no need for anesthesia or localized numbing, your provider may use a numbing cream for additional comfort.
One of the main benefits of a CoolPeel, is that there is minimal downtime. You should expect to be a little red, as if you have a sunburn, for a day, or two, but nothing should prevent you from returning to your normal daily activities. Your skin may feel dry and scaly as it heals so it is important to keep the skin hydrated.
