Overview
Tetra PRO is a DEKA CO2 laser distributed by Cartessa in the US and Canada. It offers adjustable resurfacing settings, including the CoolPeel treatment and Moveo scanning mode.
Treatment intensity and recovery depend on the settings and patient.
How it worksTechnology and manufacturing
How the technology works
The cited Tetra PRO submission describes a 10,600 nm CO2 laser with articulated-arm delivery and optional scanning units. Scanners distribute laser delivery for ablative resurfacing; settings and delivery accessories determine the treatment pattern.
Patented technology
H-Pulse is DEKA's high-peak-power ultra-short pulse shape — the engineering basis of CoolPeel; PSD (Pulse Shape Design) is the umbrella for selectable waveforms; CoolPeel itself is a trademarked consumer treatment brand.
Origin
DEKA M.E.L.A., Calenzano (Florence), Italy — part of publicly traded El.En. Group; US distribution and service exclusively via Cartessa Aesthetics.

Treatment & running costs
Supplies & recurring costs
Cartessa’s US store displayed $440 on October 7, 2026 for a TetraPro smoke-evacuation pack containing 10 adapters (3/8 to 7/8 inch) and 10 spiral hoses. This is a package reference, not a per-session supply cost.
The seller notes that its latest smoke-evacuator model no longer uses the green secondary filter; confirm the exact evacuator version before ordering. The listing does not establish replacement frequency, a complete supply budget or warranty/service costs.
Do not interpret the absence of a treatment-tip charge as zero operating cost.
