Frequently Asked Questions
What is CoolPeel Treatment?
Only Tetra PRO has the precision and control to deliver energy at the right depth and speed for superficial skin resurfacing results without the lingering heat that would traditionally damage the surrounding skin. The lack of unnecessary heat is where CoolPeel gets its name and why you get an immediate aesthetic effect with minimal downtime.
What areas can be treated?
CoolPeel, Tetra PRO treatments are not just for the face; other areas of your body, like the hands, décolleté, and back, can benefit from skin resurfacing.
What can I expect from my treatment?
With a CoolPeel, while often unnecessary, your provider may offer numbing cream or cold air for comfort. A full-face CoolPeel can take between 5 - 15 minutes. A more intense, ablative CO2 treatment can take longer and require additional analgesics.
After your CoolPeel, your skin may be red and warm for a day or two. You can resume normal daily activities during this time. As your skin heals, it may feel dry and scaly, so it's important to keep it hydrated.
For Tetra PRO, consult your provider about your specific settings and what you can expect. Your provider may use a combination of CoolPeel and deeper settings along the same area.
Who is a candidate for CoolPeel, Tetra Pro?
You are a good candidate for a CoolPeel laser treatment if you are looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines, sun damage, minimize pores, and improve skin texture. If you have more laxity, extensive sun damage, pigmentation, or deeper scars and wrinkles, Tetra PRO have the capabilities to customize your treatment, including for darker skin types.
