Tetra CoolPeel CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing in Wilmington, NC
From changes in skin quality to the development of obvious blemishes, there are many reasons to seek the benefits of laser skin resurfacing. In the past, however, the recovery time associated with many of these treatments made it seem like more trouble than it’s worth.
That’s not the case with the Tetra CoolPeel CO2 laser. This unique and highly versatile solution offers high levels of skin resurfacing with extremely minimal downtime — often lasting as little as three days! Our skincare professionals can customize your treatment to your skin, goals, and desired downtime.
What Is the Tetra CoolPeel CO2 Laser?
The Tetra CoolPeel CO2 Laser is a type of “fractional resurfacing” laser which removes minuscule columns of skin while leaving the surrounding tissue intact. This process uses heat energy and triggers collagen production, which can dramatically improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and clear up the skin’s complexion.
As one of the most advanced CO2 lasers available, its highly variable power, density, and pulse duration allow it to treat all manner of skin issues precisely and efficiently. Whether you require delicate touch-ups or serious resurfacing, this dynamic, non-surgical option can be customized to your needs with minimal time needed for recovery.

The History of the Tetra CO2 Laser?
Prior to Treatment
During Treatment
After Treatment & Results
Perhaps the greatest benefit of the Tetra CoolPeel CO2 laser is that it offers significant skin resurfacing with minimal downtime. You may experience dryness, scaly skin, and redness akin to a sunburn for a day or two, none of which should affect your ability to live normally. Even plans with multiple treatments involved should only take no more than one week of recovery.
Results are progressive. As your skin heals in the brief recovery window, you will notice it is softer, brighter, and more even. Over the following three to six months, deeper layers of skin will heal and fill in with collagen, leading to long-term improvements to skin look and feel that can last for years with proper care.
