Microlaser Peel® … "The Weekend Peel"
(Information provided by Dr. Melissa Hawkins )

Softens fine lines * Improves skin texture * Softens acne scars * Blends uneven pigmentation

MicroLaser Peel® is the newest way to treat accumulated sun damage, aging skin, fine lines and scars without the downtime of a deep skin resurfacing. This Erbium:YAG laser peel will exfoliate the superficial layers (10 microns) or deeper layers (20-50 micros) of the epidermis. The depth of penetration is tailored to the individual and the problem to be corrected. Uneven pigmentation, fine epidermal lines and keratinization are significantly improved with each treatment session. Two to four Microlaser Peels may be necessary to achieve desired results.

Topical anesthesia is applied 30 minutes prior to the procedure. Immediately following the MicroLaser Peel® it looks as if you have sunburn. During the next 2-3 days the redness begins to fade, the superficial cells slough revealing smoother, healthier and more vibrant skin.

If the procedure is performed on a Thursday, you can wear makeup and return to work the following Monday. Deeper treatments yield more significant improvement; however, more downtime is required for healing. Results will vary according to skin type, depth of peel and condition being treated. A good skin care regimen is recommended to enhance and maintain your results.
