TETRA PRO
The Tetra Pro laser, also known as the DEKA Tetra Pro or Tetra Pro CoolPeel, is a state-of-the-art CO2 fractional ablative laser system used for skin resurfacing and rejuvenation.
Tetra CO2 laser treatment is a popular and effective method for reducing the appearance of acne scars. It works by using a carbon dioxide laser to remove damaged skin layers, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin rejuvenation. This leads to smoother, more even skin and a reduction in the visibility of scars.
How it works:
Ablative laser: CO2 lasers are ablative, meaning they remove the outer layers of skin.
Fractional technology: The laser delivers energy in a fractional manner, creating microscopic wounds that stimulate healing and collagen remodeling in the surrounding untreated skin.
Collagen stimulation: The heat from the laser triggers collagen production, which is essential for skin repair and scar reduction.
Skin resurfacing: The process reveals smoother, more youthful-looking skin beneath.
Benefits:
Reduced scar visibility: CO2 laser treatment can significantly improve the appearance of various types of acne scars, including atrophic scars.
Skin texture improvement: It can help to smooth out uneven skin texture and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Skin tightening: The collagen stimulation can also contribute to skin tightening.
What to expect:
There is typically some downtime associated with CO2 laser treatment, which can range from a few days to a couple of weeks.
The treated area may be red, swollen, and feel like a sunburn immediately after the procedure.
Follow-up appointments are necessary to monitor the healing process and ensure optimal results.
Multiple sessions may be required, depending on the severity of the scarring and individual patient needs.
Some improvement may be noticeable within a few weeks, with continued enhancement over several months as collagen remodeling takes place.
