MicroLaser Peel
Facial peels are one of the best ways to address a range of skin conditions at once. While many of them use chemicals like TCA to separate older skin layers and peel them off, there is another option that’s just as effective and requires little downtime. At Berman Skin Institute, we are proud to offer the MicroLaser Peel, designed to combat moderate signs of aging.
What Is a MicroLaser Peel?
During a MicroLaser Peel treatment, your provider will apply a laser device to targeted areas. As the laser works deep into your skin, it loosens the bonds between the topmost layers of your skin and reveals the smoother, newer layers underneath. The laser energy also stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to rapid cell turnover and new skin growth.
What Can MicroLaser Peels Treat?
The MicroLaser Peel is highly versatile, allowing it to combat multiple concerns all at once. It’s suitable for almost any skin type, and we often recommend it to people dealing with:
- Acne and acne scars: The MicroLaser Peel targets acne and acne scars at their root, greatly diminishing their appearance.
- Brown liver and age spots: If dark spots on your skin affect your self-confidence, the MicroLaser Peel can help by evening out the hyperpigmentation.
- Wrinkles: Whether you’ve developed fine lines, crow’s feet, frown lines or just general wrinkles, the MicroLaser Peel minimizes their appearance and encourages new collagen growth to fill them in.
- Lax skin: As the upper layers of your skin slough off, the newer, more elastic skin will tighten up your features and reduce sagging.
What to Expect Before and After MicroLaser Peels
Prior to your appointment, you may be advised to avoid tanning and other skin procedures for a few weeks. At your initial consultation, your provider will give you specific instructions based on your medical history and regimen. On the day of your appointment, we’ll apply a topical numbing cream to mitigate any discomfort. The treatment usually takes about an hour to complete.
Following your peel, it usually takes about two days for most of the skin peeling to occur and for your skin to slough off. You may feel and look like you have a sunburn, but you should be able to cover up most of the redness with makeup after four days. This peel is also known as the “weekend peel” because it’s the perfect amount of time for your skin to recover before returning to work.
