The secret to smoother, firmer, more radiant skin? Precision. With the TetraPro CO₂ laser system, we can resurface the skin on your terms—mild and refreshing with CoolPeel, or deep and transformative with our signature Deep Peel. Whether you want subtle refinement or a major reset, we’ll tailor your treatment to your skin and your schedule.
The TetraPro is a next-generation fractional CO₂ laser that delivers powerful resurfacing with exceptional control. It works by creating microscopic channels in the skin, triggering your body’s natural healing response and jumpstarting collagen and elastin production. The result? Dramatically smoother skin, improved tone and texture, and reduced signs of aging.
Unlike older CO₂ lasers, Tetra is customizable for a range of skin types and downtime levels—especially when paired with CoolPeel®, its innovative low-energy setting designed for lighter recovery.
Whether you’re choosing a gentle refresh with CoolPeel or going deeper with our signature DeepCool Peel, your comfort, safety, and results are our priority. Here’s what to expect before, during, and after your visit.
Before your Tetra CO₂ CoolPeel® session, arrive with clean, makeup-free skin and no self-tanner on the treatment area. For several days prior, you’ll typically be asked to pause retinoids, exfoliating acids, scrubs, and other irritating products, and to avoid recent peels, waxing, or strong resurfacing treatments.
Let us know if you have a history of cold sores, abnormal scarring, recent sunburn, or significant sun exposure, or recent procedures or changes in your medical history. In some cases, a preventive antiviral medication may be recommended. We’ll review your goals, examine your skin, take photos, and confirm the treatment settings before we begin.
Your CoolPeel® treatment starts with a gentle cleanse and application of a topical anesthetic to keep you comfortable. Once your skin is numb, the Tetra device delivers controlled, fractionated CO₂ laser energy to the skin’s surface using a unique “cool” technology that limits heat buildup and reduces downtime compared to traditional CO₂ lasers.
Most clients describe the sensation as quick, warm tingles or a mild prickling feeling, rather than true pain. A typical face treatment takes about 30-45 minutes once numbing is complete, depending on the size of the area and the intensity of the settings.
After CoolPeel®, you can expect redness and a sunburn-like warmth for several hours, sometimes into the next day. The skin may feel tight, dry, or slightly rough, with light flaking or peeling over the following days as it renews. You’ll receive clear post-care instructions, which usually include gentle cleanser, soothing gentle moisturizer, and strict broad-spectrum sunscreen, while avoiding makeup for at least 24 hours or as directed.

Precision treatments mean personalized outcomes—and with Agnes RF, small changes can make a big difference.

For subtle resurfacing with little to no downtime. CoolPeel gently improves texture, tone, and pores by removing superficial skin damage without excessive heat. It’s perfect for first-time laser clients or those wanting to maintain a healthy glow without disrupting their schedule. Expect a refreshed, smooth complexion with redness that fades in 1–3 days.
For those looking to correct deeper wrinkles, sun damage, and acne scarring, this advanced treatment combines the power of traditional fractional CO₂ resurfacing with precision-controlled settings to minimize downtime. You’ll see noticeable improvement in skin firmness, smoothness, and clarity, with full results unfolding over the weeks following treatment.
This dynamic duo blends surface renewal with deep collagen stimulation. CoolPeel smooths and brightens the outer skin layer, while Scarlet RF targets laxity, texture, and elasticity at a deeper level. The result? Firmer, more radiant skin with improved tone and long-term rejuvenation—perfect for those seeking both instant glow and ongoing transformation.
Traditional CO₂ lasers deliver excellent results but often require intense heat and long recovery times, increasing the risk of hyperpigmentation and discomfort. CoolPeel uses the Tetra CO₂ laser, which features a unique, customizable pulse shape called the SmartXide “CoolPeel” wave—designed to deliver energy more precisely and gently, with minimal thermal damage to surrounding tissue.
This advanced technology allows us to achieve impressive resurfacing results without the heat, smoke, or extensive downtime associated with older CO₂ lasers. It’s perfect for improving fine lines, texture, and skin tone—with a sunburn-like recovery, not weeks of peeling.
Both treatments use the Tetra CO₂ laser, but they differ in depth, intensity, and recovery time:
CoolPeel is a superficial resurfacing treatment that gently improves skin texture, tone, and pores with minimal downtime. It targets the outermost skin layers, making it ideal for maintenance or early signs of aging.
TetraPro (our DeepCool Peel) is a customizable, deeper treatment that goes beneath the surface to treat wrinkles, scarring, sun damage, and laxity. It offers more dramatic results, but comes with a longer healing period (usually 5–7 days).
We help you choose the best option based on your skin goals, concerns, and schedule.
Most clients describe CoolPeel as feeling like a warm, prickling sensation—very tolerable. We can apply a topical numbing cream beforehand if you prefer, but many people are comfortable without it.
For DeepCool Peel, we always use topical numbing to ensure a more comfortable experience during the deeper resurfacing. Any discomfort is typically short-lived and well-managed.
CoolPeel: Redness for 1–3 days, mild dryness or flaking. Makeup in 48 hours.
DeepCool Peel: Redness and peeling for 5–7+ days. You may feel sunburned for the first 1–2 days. Expect more downtime but also more dramatic results.
You may notice a fresher look within a few days, especially after CoolPeel. However, collagen remodeling continues for weeks, so full results typically appear 4–6 weeks post-treatment, with continued improvement over time.
CoolPeel is safe for most skin tones, but deeper Tetra treatments are best for lighter to medium skin types due to the risk of pigmentation changes. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your skin and customize the safest, most effective plan for you.
CoolPeel: Often done in a series of 3–4 treatments for optimal results.
DeepCool Peel: Many patients see a dramatic difference after just one session, but more severe concerns may benefit from a follow-up.
