Can one controlling element growth after specifying surface element size

Can one control the element size growth after specifying a surface element size.   In solidworks, one can specify the ratio of  the next set of elements as the mesh is created from the surface.  Can one do this in Creo?   I am running a transient thermal analysis with a very high convection coefficient.   Lowering the element size to 0.25 mm has had the surface temperature results agree with the theoretical results.   However, at various depths below the surface the error becomes 3-5 % unless I specify an element size that will result in way to many elements.
