What is MicroLaserPeel?
A MicroLaserPeel removes a thin layer of damaged skin to improve texture and provide a more youthful appearance.It provides superior results because it can be administered with great precision of depth. The procedure is performed here at Scottsdale Skin & Holistic Health and will be custom tailored to your specific skin conditions and can be used in combination with other laser treatments for your desired outcome.
What conditions can be treated with MicroLaserPeel?
• Mild wrinkles
• Scars
• Keratosis (pre-cancerous lesions)
• Sun damage (e.g., freckles)
• Pigment irregularities
How does MicroLaserPeel work?
The MicroLaserPeel’s beam is scanned over a treatment area to remove a very thin layer of the skin. Removing the top layer eliminates some of the damaged cells that can give skin a tired, aged look. As the skin heals, fresh cells grow and resurface the treated area. The result is healthier-looking skin, often with reduced wrinkles and improved color evenness. Patients often say that it looks like their skin went from looking tired to vibrant.
What areas of the body can be treated?
Most skin areas can be treated. Popular treatment areas are the face and neck, though some people also treat the chest and hands. You should discuss your needs with your Technician.
How many treatments will I need?
Excellent results can be obtained in just one treatment, however, the number of treatments needed may vary from patient to patient. Your Technician can personalize a plan based on your specific needs and may choose to combineMicroLaserPeel with other aesthetic procedures to further personalize your treatment.

FAQs
What will happen during the procedure?
Your skin will be cleaned in the treatment area and your eyes will be protected with safety shields. The Technician will position the laser handpiece above the skin and will hold it in place as the computer-guided scanner moves the laser beam around the treatment area. Depending on the size of the area being treated, the procedure usually lasts 15 to 30 minutes.
Will it be uncomfortable?
One of the primary advantages of MicroLaserPeel is that it causes little pain because it does not penetrate very deep into the skin. At its most shallow settings, most people can tolerate treatment with no anesthetic at all. At deeper settings, a topical numbing cream is typically used.
What should I expect immediately after the treatment?
Immediately after the treatment, you will notice that the skin has a “frosty” appearance. This is the dehydrated skin that will peel away within the next few days following the treatment. You may experience some skin redness and a sensation resembling a sunburn, as well as mild swelling.
How long will it take to recover?
Depending on the depth of treatment, most patients feel comfortable enough to return to work within 3 to 4 days
– an attribute that has given rise to the nickname “the weekend peel.”
What aftercare do I need?
Your technician will provide you with your post-treatment care instructions at the time of the procedure. Your skin will be sensitive to ultra-violet light after the procedure, so you must avoid direct sun exposure until fully healed. It is recommended that you always use some level of solar protection to avoid sun damage and premature aging of your skin.
When should I expect results?
Because only the outer layer of skin is treated, most patients notice an obvious improvement in tone, texture and color evenness once the skin heals in approximately 3-4 days.
