MicroLaser Peel Skin Resurfacing

What is the MicroLaserPeel?
It is a minimal to full epidermal laser peel that precisely removes the outermost layers of the skin. The procedure is individually tailored to the nature of the problem to be corrected: wrinkles, scars, keratoses,or enlarged pores.

What can the patient expect?
Smoother, healthier more vibrant skin. You will notice a significant and immediate change in skin texture and tightness when compared to microdermabrasion. One procedure could be sufficient for at least 6 to12 months, but additional procedures can be performed as required. A package of three to four treatments may be best for you. Your physician will determine what is necessary.

What type of anesthesia is used?
A topical anesthetic such as Ela-max, Emla or Betacaine Plus is applied thirty to 45 minutes before the procedure.

How long is the healing process?
The healing process varies from patient to patient but will generally take from two to four days. The procedure can be performed on Thursday or Friday and you can return to work the following Monday. Immediately following the procedure you will feel as if you have a bad sunburn. You will have minor sloughing and itchiness the following day. By day two, redness will begin to fade and by day three any redness can be easily covered by makeup.

ProFractional™

ProFractional™ is a quick laser treatment with little to no downtime. The treatment takes about 15-30 minutes depending on the condition and the size of the area being treated. ProFractional™ can be used to improve a wide variety of skin conditions including:

• Wrinkles and fine lines
• Post traumatic scars
• Acne scars
• Age spots
• Sun spots
• Freckles
• Aging and sun-damaged skin

ProFractional™ works by using laser energy to create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin, which are surrounded, by areas of healthy, untreated skin. The ProFractional™ can adjust the microscopic channels by size, depth and density depending on the desired affect. The zones of untreated skin invigorate the body’s natural healing process, and the treated areas stimulate the production of new collagen, plumping up the skin and smoothing out wrinkles, lines, scars and other irregularities. Most skin areas can be treated, the most popular areas include the face, neck, chest and hands. ProFractional™ is usually done in a series of 1-4 treatments depending on your needs. We will customize a treatment based on your exact skin condition. We can also combine ProFractional™ with some of our other treatments for even greater results.
