What Is the Tetra CO₂ Laser?

The Tetra CO₂ by DEKA is the most advanced CO₂ platform available today. It offers unparalleled customizability and precision, giving us the ability to control:

Pulse duration

Depth of penetration

Energy density

Downtime and recovery time

With this level of control, we can perform everything from light resurfacing (CoolPeel) to deep fractional resurfacing (DEEP Mode) in a single device—allowing you to address aging, texture, tone, and elasticity exactly where needed.

Treatment Options with Tetra CO₂

CoolPeel

Minimal Downtime, Maximum Glow

CoolPeel delivers precise, superficial CO₂ energy to refresh the skin without ablation or injury. This treatment is ideal for:

• Fine lines
• Enlarged pores
• Mild sun damage
• Dull texture and tone
• Patients seeking zero-to-low downtime

CoolPeel is a quick in-office procedure with only 1–3 days of pinkness or dryness—great for “pre-event” rejuvenation or maintenance between deeper treatments.

DEEP Mode

Intensive Resurfacing and Skin Tightening

DEEP Mode is used when more dramatic improvement is desired, especially in cases of:

• Moderate to deep wrinkles
• Advanced sun damage
• Acne scarring or surgical scars
• Skin laxity (jawline, neck, cheeks)
• Crepey or leathery texture on the face or chest

DEEP Mode penetrates more deeply into the dermis, triggering robust collagen remodeling and skin tightening. This mode often requires a few days of social downtime—but produces dramatic, longer-lasting results that continue to improve for 3–6 months post-treatment.
