MicroLaser Peel is a non-surgical and non-invasive skin rejuvenation that uses a special laser to smoothen the skin’s surface and reverse the signs of aging.
The MicroLaser Peel treatment uses a special scanning erbium laser to exfoliate the uppermost layers of the skin, scrubbing away months of accumulated dead skin cells. Your body increases skin cell turnover in the region. The older and damaged tissues are eventually replaced by new and healthier skin tissues, improving your skin’s overall texture and clarity. The erbium scanning laser is highly-adjustable, allowing the cosmetic provider to vaporize the targeted skin depths.
We also use the Observ skin analysis tool to visualize the final results during the consultation, so you know what to expect.
30 to 60 minutes
You’ll experience redness and swelling after the procedure for several days. The uppermost layers of the skin will gradually peel off after a few days. Depending on the severity of the procedure, you may need 1 to 7 days of social downtime.
You’ll start seeing the results as the uppermost layers of the skin peel away within a week, revealing healthy and glowing skin underneath. The results will continue improving over several weeks as your body produces new skin cells and collagen fibers.
Your MicroLaser Peel treatment starts with a private consultation with our skilled medical aesthetician, Miriam. She’ll carefully assess your treatment areas, review your medical history, and discuss your cosmetic goals. We also use cutting-edge Observ technology to produce a 3D profile and analysis of your skin, revealing the predicted results of each treatment option. This allows you to visualize the results beforehand, so you know how your skin will look at various stages of the recovery.
Miriam will gently cleanse the treatment areas and apply a topical numbing cream to ensure optimal comfort. She’ll adjust the MicroLaser device to penetrate the appropriate depth of the skin, ranging from a 10-micron peel to a 50-micron peel. The provider will move the laser device over the treatment areas and hold it in place as the scanner moves the laser across the chosen treatment areas. We’ll apply a light dressing over the treatment areas to soothe and moisten the skin and provide the post-treatment recovery guidelines.
You’ll have to wear the dressing for 2 to 7 days after the treatment to protect your skin. The redness and swelling will last for up to 7 days, depending on the depth of the treatment. You should follow the provider’s guidelines accurately. You’ll start noticing the results once the swelling and redness recedes and the uppermost layers of the skin peel away in 2 to 7 days. However, the results will continue improving for several weeks or months.
