What is DEKA Tetra PRO Laser Treatment
If you’re looking for advanced laser skin resurfacing in Timaru, the DEKA Tetra PRO is the latest generation CO2 laser technology designed to dramatically improve skin tone, texture, and signs of ageing.
At NueAesthetics in Timaru, we use the DEKA Tetra PRO laser to deliver precision skin resurfacing treatments, including CoolPeel, helping you achieve smoother, brighter, tighter skin with minimal downtime.
The DEKA Tetra PRO is an advanced fractional CO2 laser system developed by DEKA. It allows practitioners to customise treatment intensity — from light resurfacing with minimal downtime to deeper corrective treatments.
This technology stimulates collagen production, resurfaces damaged skin, and improves:
Fine lines and wrinkles
Sun damage
Pigmentation
Acne scars
Uneven skin texture
Enlarged pores
Because of its precision and adjustable settings, it is one of the most versatile CO2 laser platforms available today.
Results from DEKA Tetra PRO laser resurfacing can last several years, depending on the intensity of treatment, your skin condition, and how well you maintain your skin.
Most clients notice continued collagen production and improvement for 3–6 months after treatment. With good skincare, sun protection, and maintenance treatments when needed, results can be long-lasting.
Ageing and sun exposure will continue naturally, but many patients choose occasional maintenance sessions to preserve their results.
Comfort levels depend on the type of treatment performed.
For lighter treatments such as CoolPeel, most clients describe the sensation as warm and prickly, with minimal discomfort.
For deeper CO2 resurfacing treatments, a topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to maximise comfort. You may feel heat and a mild stinging sensation during the procedure.
After treatment, the skin can feel similar to sunburn for a short period.
Your comfort is always prioritised, and treatment settings are customised to suit your tolerance.
Like all laser skin resurfacing treatments, DEKA Tetra PRO can cause temporary side effects, including:
Redness
Swelling
Warmth or sensitivity
Mild flaking or peeling
Temporary darkening of pigmentation before it lightens
For deeper treatments, downtime is longer and redness may persist for several days.
More serious complications are rare when performed by a trained professional and when aftercare instructions are followed carefully.
A full consultation at NueAesthetics in Timaru ensures you are a suitable candidate before proceeding.
The number of treatments depends on your skin concerns and desired outcome.
Mild texture and brightness concerns may improve after just one session.
Acne scarring or deeper wrinkles may require a series of 2–3 treatments.
Some clients choose annual maintenance treatments to maintain collagen stimulation.
During your consultation, we will create a personalised treatment plan based on your skin goals.
