CO₂ lasers have long been regarded as an aesthetic gold-standard for treating aging skin and have become synonymous with real improvement in wrinkles, age spots and skin texture. However, these results have historically come at the expense of days, even weeks, of downtime, thus limiting the willingness of aesthetic patients to undergo CO₂ treatments. Attitudes towards CO₂ shifted in 2019 when Tetra CO₂ and the exclusive CoolPeel treatment was introduced in the U.S. marketplace. Now approved by Health Canada, the technology is poised to drive new demand amongst practitioners and patients.
The CoolPeel is a highly superficial CO₂ laser treatment that reduces the appearance of fine lines, sun damage and pores with virtually no downtime. Cartessa Aesthetics, the exclusive distributor of the Tetra CO₂ in the U.S. and Canada, developed this protocol in conjunction with its manufacturing partner, DEKA. The CoolPeel leverages the Tetra’s exclusive H-pulse—a high-peak power, short pulse that delivers a fractional ablative treatment without thermal damage to the surrounding tissue. No thermal damage means that downtime is highly controlled and minimized while impressive superficial, skin-resurfacing results are delivered. Only the Tetra CO₂ has this unique pulse control to customize treatments from a fully ablative procedure to the low-downtime CoolPeel.
