The gold standard for youthful skin
The CO2 laser is considered the gold standard in the treatment of wrinkles, signs of
aging, sunspots, and many other skin imperfections for dramatically smoother, brighter, younger looking skin .
At Belle Aesthetics we use the Tetra CO2. 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.
Applications of the Tetra CO2 laser:
- Brown Spots
- Fine Lines
- Pigment
- Scars, including Acne Scars
- Sun Spots
- Wrinkles
What is a CoolPeel™?
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.
What makes CoolPeel™ different?
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 and risk while damaged skin heals.
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.
How does the CoolPeel™ work?
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. The
lack of unnecessary heat is why we call it cool – get it? – and how you get an immediate aesthetic effect with
minimal downtime.
Who is a candidate for CoolPeel™?
You are a good candidate for a CoolPeel™ laser treatment if you are looking to reduces
the appearance of fine lines and sun damage, minimize pores and improves skin texture. Your skin will look
healthier and younger.
How long does a CoolPeel™ take?
A full-face CoolPeel™ laser peel can take anywhere from 5-15 minutes.
Is anesthesia or numbing required?
While there is no need for anesthesia or localized numbing, your provider may use a
numbing cream for additional comfort.
What is my recovery time?
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.
When can I return to my skincare routine?
After your CoolPeel™ treatment, it is important to keep your skin hydrated and there may
be certain products you should avoid. Talk to your provider about the best post-treatment care and when you
can return to your daily skincare regimen.
