MicroLaserPeel® Treatment

Your skin is constantly exposed to the elements, leading to damage that can manifest as fine lines, sun spots, uneven texture and overall dullness. While over-the-counter products might provide some relief, they often fall short when it comes to achieving significant, long-lasting results.

Enter the MicroLaserPeel — a cutting-edge laser treatment designed to rejuvenate your skin with precision, control and consistency that surpass traditional chemical peels. Whether you’re looking to address fine lines, sun damage or rough skin texture, the MicroLaserPeel offers a minimally invasive solution to reveal smoother, brighter and healthier-looking skin.

Dr. Cohen and AboutSkin’s Expertise

At AboutSkin Dermatology and Aesthetics, you’re in the hands of a team led by one of the foremost experts in cosmetic dermatology, Dr. Joel L. Cohen. As the director of AboutSkin, Dr. Cohen brings a wealth of experience, having participated in numerous clinical trials and contributed extensively to the field through lectures and publications. His expertise, coupled with the skills of a team of Board-Certified Dermatologists, ensures that each patient receives personalized care tailored to their unique skin concerns. Under Dr. Cohen’s guidance, AboutSkin has become a leader in offering advanced dermatological treatments, including the highly effective MicroLaserPeel.

What Is the MicroLaserPeel®?

The MicroLaserPeel is an advanced skin resurfacing treatment that uses precise erbium laser technology to target and remove the outermost layers of skin. This treatment is renowned for its ability to deliver the effects of a moderate to deep chemical peel but with enhanced precision and results. The MicroLaserPeel procedure is versatile and commonly used to treat the face, neck, chest and hands — areas most often affected by sun damage and the natural aging process.

How Does the MicroLaserPeel® Work?

The MicroLaserPeel uses an erbium laser, specifically the Erbium 2940 nm wavelength, to vaporize thin layers of damaged skin. Unlike traditional chemical peels that rely on a chemical reaction to exfoliate the skin, the laser used in the MicroLaserPeel offers precise control over the depth of treatment. This allows for a highly customized approach where your Dermatologist can adjust the intensity based on your skin type and specific concerns.

As the laser removes the damaged outer skin layers, it simultaneously stimulates the underlying skin to produce new collagen, which helps further improve skin texture and elasticity. The result is a smoother, more even complexion with a noticeable reduction in fine lines, sun spots and other imperfections.

What Does the MicroLaserPeel® Treat?

The MicroLaserPeel is highly effective in addressing a variety of skin concerns on nearly any area of the face and body that could benefit from a smoother skin tone and texture. Some of the most common issues treated by this laser peel include:

  • Crepey skin: Tightens and improves the thin, wrinkled appearance of skin, particularly on the hands, neck and chest.
  • Age spots/sun spots: Lightens or eliminates pigmented areas (hyperpigmentation) that result from sun exposure and aging.
  • Fine lines and wrinkles: Reduces the appearance of fine lines and mild to moderate wrinkles, particularly around the eyes and mouth.
  • Rough skin texture: Smooths rough, uneven skin to create a more uniform and soft surface.
  • Large pores: Minimizes the appearance of enlarged pores, creating a smoother, more refined skin texture.

Who Is a Good Candidate for the MicroLaserPeel®?

The MicroLaserPeel is suitable for patients who want to improve their skin without undergoing more invasive procedures. Ideal candidates include those who:

  • Have mild to moderate signs of aging, such as fine lines and sun spots
  • Desire a quick recovery time compared to more aggressive laser treatments
  • Are in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the results
  • Are looking for a treatment that can be tailored to their specific skin concerns

This treatment is also an excellent option for those who have tried other methods, such as chemical peels or microdermabrasion, but are seeking more significant results.

Your MicroLaserPeel® Consultation

Your journey to revitalized skin begins with a comprehensive consultation at AboutSkin Dermatology and Aesthetics. During this consultation, Dr. Cohen or one of our Board-Certified Dermatologists will evaluate your skin concerns, discuss your goals and develop a personalized treatment plan. This plan will be tailored to your skin type, the areas you wish to treat and the depth of peel required to achieve your desired results. This personalized approach aligns your treatment with your unique needs and delivers the best possible outcome.

The MicroLaserPeel® Treatment Process

The MicroLaserPeel treatment is done in-office and typically takes 30 to 60 minutes to complete. Here’s what you can expect at your appointment:

  1. Preparation: Your skin will be cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to minimize any discomfort during the procedure.
  2. Laser application: The erbium laser is then used to target the outer layers of your skin. Your Dermatologist carefully controls the depth of the peel to promote optimal results. Depending on your skin’s needs, the treatment may involve one or more passes of the laser.
  3. Post-treatment care: After the procedure, your skin may be slightly red and swollen, similar to a mild sunburn. A soothing ointment will be applied to help with healing, and you’ll receive detailed post-care instructions.

How Many MicroLaserPeel® Sessions Will I Need? 

It’s important to note that while some results can be seen after a single treatment, optimal outcomes are typically achieved through a series of MicroLaserPeel sessions. Your Dermatologist will recommend a treatment plan based on your skin’s specific needs and your aesthetic goals.

MicroLaserPeel® Recovery and Downtime

One of the benefits of the MicroLaserPeel is its relatively quick recovery time. While some redness, mild crusting and peeling are expected in the days following the treatment, these side effects are typically mild and resolve within a few days. The exact recovery time needed can vary depending on the depth of the peel and the number of passes used during treatment. However, most patients find that they can return to their normal routine within three to five days.

During the recovery period, it’s crucial to follow the post-treatment care instructions provided by your Dermatologist. These instructions may include avoiding direct sun exposure, applying specific skincare products and keeping the treated areas moisturized.

Expected Results From the MicroLaserPeel®

The early results from a MicroLaserPeel often emerge within one to two weeks of treatment. As your skin heals, you’ll begin to see a significant improvement in its texture and tone. Fine lines and wrinkles will appear softened, pigmentation irregularities will be reduced and your overall complexion will look smoother and more youthful. The full benefits of the MicroLaserPeel, including the production of new collagen, will become more apparent over the following weeks and months as your skin fully heals.

How Long Will My MicroLaserPeel® Results Last?

The longevity of your MicroLaserPeel results depends on several factors, including your skincare routine and lifestyle habits. While the treatment can provide long-lasting improvement, it’s essential to protect your skin from sun damage and maintain a consistent skincare regimen to prolong the effects. Periodic maintenance treatments can also help sustain your results and keep your skin looking its best.
