Perhaps you’ve experienced a regular chemical peel before. You rest back and have a sheet placed over your skin. You experience a pleasant tingling as the bacteria in your skin is sucked and absorbed away by the chemicals. Then the peel is removed and you experience lovely skin for a few days. The unfortunate part of the standard chemical peel is that it tends to only treat the surface of the skin. Because of this, you’re typically left with the same skin tone and blemishes a few days later. The problem for many women doesn’t rest on the surface of the skin. It’s in the pores. One method to treat this problem that has seen great success for many patients is the microlaser peels treatment.
The Process
If you’re tired of seeing the same old gunk on your face a few days after a facial treatment, then you may want to consider microlaser peels. The idea is similar to any other peel in that you relax and allow a member of our team to carefully treat those specific problem areas with a microlaser. The microlaser essentially can be used as deep or as shallow as you need.
Women usually settle around one to four treatments with microlaser peels dependent upon the severity of the problem and how deep the treatment needs to go. Those who have the lasers dig deeper typically require fewer treatments because the laser is able to remove the problem from the source.
What It Treats
Microlaser peels are a powerful tool against anti-aging. They can help smooth out fine lines, so if you’re starting to notice wrinkles in your skin, then you can greatly benefit from a microlaser peel. It can also help even skin tone. So, if you suffer from hyperpigmentation, possess sunspots, sun damage, or skin that just has blemishes, the microlaser can remove those blemishes and leave your skin looking vibrant and toned.
It is a powerful treatment and typically requires you to take a little bit of time out of your schedule to recover at home. The recovery process itself, however, is incredibly simple. All you really need to do is apply the prescribed cream to your skin at certain points of the day. It is also usually best to stay out of the sun as your skin will be quite tender after the treatment. After a few days, however, you’ll find that your skin looks more youthful, rejuvenated, even, and smooth.
