Patients of various ages are increasingly drawn to fractional skin resurfacing, such as CO2 laser in Sarasota. Nonetheless, the desire for outcomes without extended downtime prevails in our modern, fast-paced world. The SmartXide Tetra CO2 laser stands out by offering an extensive array of treatments, including the innovative CoolPeel® treatment, catering to the demands of today's active lifestyles.
CoolPeel laser treatment by Tetra CO2 is a brand new way to safely and comfortably deliver the benefits of a traditional CO2 resurfacing treatment. Targeting the superficial layers of skin tissue removes damaged skin, revealing younger and healthier-looking skin.SmartXTide Tetra CO2 CoolPeel is a highly versatile and precise laser. We are able to customize Tetra CO2 laser treatments by adjusting power, density, and pulse durations to meet patient expectations. Treatments with this laser can precisely resurface layers of skin to remove damaged tissue while minimizing downtime through controlled procedures. Applications include addressing sun damage, brown spots, fine lines, scars, wrinkles, uneven texture, etc.
CO2 lasers are the gold standard in treating:
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 laser treatments, but only CoolPeel can deliver a fractional ablative treatment without downtime. There is minimal risk of hyperpigmentation, demarcation, or induced infection.
The SmartXide Tetra CO2 offers unparalleled control, surpassing other CO2 devices. Whether your patients seek a minimal downtime CoolPeel®, treatment for delicate eye areas, or deeper ablation for wrinkles and scars, the Tetra laser ensures unmatched precision for addressing acne scars, wrinkles, dark spots, sun spots, and more.
Dr. Greco has written multiple book chapters and conducted national lectures on the advantages of combining laser resurfacing technology with various therapies to attain enhanced and optimized results. Incorporating growth factors, anti-inflammatory proteins, and regenerative treatments optimizes treatment outcomes, expedites healing, and reduces downtime. At Greco Dermatology, we possess the capability to integrate CoolPeel technology with the following:
A crucial component of Signature CoolPeel treatments is Oxygen Amplified Therapy (OATH™). Oxygen levels decrease with age, contributing to skin damage and aging. OATH™ enhances metabolically active cells, promoting tissue regeneration, collagen synthesis, skin hydration, and healing. Delivering concentrated oxygen and nutrients through OATH™ optimizes CoolPeel laser resurfacing results.
Both the Golden LaserPeel and Platinum LaserPeel incorporate elevated concentrations of your own growth factors to provide a revitalizing boost to the treatment. Growth factors activate stem cells, keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells, stimulating regenerative processes that result in vibrant, smooth, and healthier skin.
Essential components of both the Golden LaserPeel and Platinum LaserPeel, these anti-inflammatory proteins work by counteracting harmful inflammation associated with premature aging. This inflammatory inhibition restores a harmonious and natural environment, facilitating wound healing.
Exosomes and cytosomes, minute yet potent regenerative transport vesicles, are enriched with concentrated growth factors, proteins, anti-inflammatory molecules, and cellular signals. These components trigger neighboring cells into biological activity, optimizing the regenerative effects of our most potent CoolPeel treatment, the Platinum LaserPeel.
A soothing collagen mask is promptly applied during your post-treatment cooling phase to hydrate the skin and alleviate redness and discomfort. The heightened collagen levels contribute to skin healing, supporting tissue repair and regeneration. This calming procedure serves as an excellent conclusion to your resurfacing experience at Greco Dermatology.

What makes the Tetra Laser so special
A full-face CoolPeel laser peel can take anywhere from 5-15 minutes.
While there is no need for anesthesia or localized numbing, your provider may use a numbing cream for additional comfort.
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. Recovery times are even faster when your skin resurfacing treatment is combined with oxygen amplified therapy, regenerative products such as exosomes and cytosomes, as well as our proprietary cytokine rich plasma (CRP) therapy.
After your CoolPeel treatment, it is important to keep your skin hydrated and there may be certain products you should avoid. We will work closely with you in recommending the best post-treatment care and timing to return to your daily skincare regimen.
The Tetra is amongst the newest and most advanced CO2 technologies available as it features more operating settings so providers can better customize the intensity, depth and shape of the laser energy. This versatility means treatments are even more precise, optimizing results and minimizing side effects and unnecessary downtime.
