A new generation of skin resurfacing technology arrives at Lifestyle Medical
Lifestyle Medical is a clinic that is well named: the Unley-based practice takes a holistic approach to beauty and wellness, with a highly experienced team of registered nurses and dermal therapists behind them. The private clinic, established and led by Doctor Katina Koukourou, employs a variety of clinical skincare and anti-ageing treatments, working closely with each client to help them put their best face forward.
Your best skin yet, resurfaced
In an exciting addition for both clients and practitioners, Lifestyle Medical are the first doctor-led clinic in South Australia to introduce the DEKA Tetra Pro CO₂ laser. For Dr Koukourou, who has over 20 years of experience as a general practitioner performing cosmetic procedures, the investment reflects the clinic’s commitment to its patients, providing them with access to some of the world’s most advanced skin-surfacing technologies.
For anyone looking to bring their skin out of hibernation, CO₂ lasering could be worth considering. The treatment is widely utilised for managing a variety of cosmetic concerns; it can improve skin quality, texture, ageing, scarring and sun damage. However, not all CO₂ lasers are created equal. The DEKA Tetra Pro is frontrunning a new generation of CO₂ technology. For the clinic, this means a greater level of control, precision and flexibility than traditional resurfacing systems: all benefits that are passed on to patients.
What makes the new equipment unique is its advanced Pulse Shape Design technology, allowing practitioners to carefully control the balance between ablation and heat. Simply put, this means the laser can remove damaged skin on the surface, while stimulating deeper collagen remodelling, improving skin’s firmness and texture. All treatment settings can be tailored to each patient’s skin type, concern and desired downtime.
This level of customisation is one of the key reasons Dr Koukourou chose to bring the Tetra Pro to Lifestyle Medical. By putting greater personalisation and control in the hands of practitioners, the team have another tool with which to demonstrate their patient-centred ethos. Each client’s journey towards skin optimisation is individual; their treatment should be, too. Options abound for overall skin rejuvenation, including advanced procedures targeting deep lines, acne and surgical scarring, and pigmentation.
With the Tetra Pro, another exciting treatment option is CoolPeel: a modern CO₂ resurfacing treatment designed to improve skin tone, pores, texture and fine lines. In contrast with traditional CO₂ resurfacing procedures, CoolPeel offers a shortened recovery window, making it an ideal entry point for patients seeking the benefits of CO₂.

As a doctor-led clinic, Lifestyle Medical places emphasis not just on personalised treatment planning, but safety and sound clinical judgement. The addition of the Tetra Pro keeps the practice’s focus on their clients by elevating their treatment offerings, as well as providing access to technology trusted by leading dermatologists and plastic surgeons around the world. For any patients considering CO₂ laser resurfacing, their skin is in safe hands at Lifestyle Medical, where world-class techniques and an experienced team of professionals are at the helm.
