CO2 lasers have been the gold standard in treating wrinkles, age spots, acne scars, and other blemishes as well as tightening skin and balancing skin tone. Unfortunately, traditional CO2 lasers have been associated with pain, prolonged downtimes and high risk of depigmentation and scarring.

Older CO2 devices are fully ablative, meaning they completely remove the skin’s surface—and they’re still being used by physicians today. Most aesthetic doctors have replaced old hardcore CO2 lasers with newer, fractional CO2 lasers. Newer fractional CO2 lasers burn in a more controlled pixelated pattern. This pixelated pattern creates pinpoint wounds surrounded by untouched skin to dramatically speed healing, maintaining skin’s healthy pigment and reducing the risk of depigmentation and scarring.

Tetra CO2 Laser Treatment is ideal for men and women alike who are looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines, sun damage, pores, and blemishes, and otherwise improve skin texture and for a younger, healthier look. During a free consultation, we can help determine if the Tetra CO2 laser is safe and right for your skin and develop a treatment plan.

Depending upon your desired results, your DEKA treatment can be a more intense treatment with longer downtime or a more superficial treatment with minimal downtime. The results are visible as new collagen forms and elastin is tightened for long-lasting benefits and the radiant results you desire. You’re a good candidate for a DEKA treatment if you’d like a tailored laser treatment to fit your lifestyle, designed to eliminate or reduce the signs of aging with long-lasting results.

The downtime with a DEKA treatment will vary depending upon the depth of treatment needed to obtain your desired results. Your goals from the treatment and the corresponding downtime will be discussed during your pre-treatment consultation.

Immediately following the treatment, you will be red as if you have a sunburn, and you will feel warmth that will fade after the first few hours. After the treatment, your skin will feel dry and rough for the first week as it heals. It is essential to stay hydrated and keep your skin moisturized. Your treatment will include a personalized pre and post skincare kit to maximize your results. You may wear mineral makeup or tinted mineral SPF the day after your procedure.
