The Power of Laser Peels: A Guide to NanoLaser Peel and Micro Laser Peel
Discover the transformative potential of NanoLaser Peel and Micro Laser Peel, Sciton’s advanced erbium resurfacing lasers designed to address sun damage, aging signs, and mild discoloration. These treatments effectively remove the top layer of the skin, stimulating the production of new skin cells and collagen, resulting in softer, smoother, and rejuvenated skin over time.
Treatment Options at Nassif MedSpa:
Nassif MedSpa offers a range of skin resurfacing treatments at our Manchester, UK, and Beverly Hills, Los Angeles offices. Each treatment is tailored to address the patient’s specific concerns, desired outcomes, and downtime preferences.
NanoLaser Peel:
Considered the lightest full-field laser resurfacing treatment, NanoLaser Peel offers up to 4 times the benefits of a microdermabrasion treatment. With minimal downtime and proven long-term benefits, this treatment is suitable for all skin types and can be easily combined with other procedures.
Micro Laser Peel:
Offering a light to medium full-field resurfacing treatment, Micro Laser Peel is an excellent “weekend” peel option. Depending on individual skin concerns and provider recommendations, the recovery downtime may vary. Similar to NanoLaser Peel, it is safe for all skin types and can be combined with other procedures.
Benefits of NanoLaser Peel and Micro Laser Peel:
These laser treatments provide more dramatic results than chemical peels or needling treatments. By removing the top layer of the skin, they stimulate the regeneration of new, healthier, and brighter skin. Additionally, deeper laser treatments stimulate the growth of collagen, resulting in firmer and tighter skin over the next 4 to 6 months.
Candidates for Laser Peels:
Individuals seeking lighter or maintenance resurfacing treatments to improve skin texture, treat wrinkles, address photo damage, and strengthen elastin and collagen in the skin are ideal candidates for NanoLaser Peel or Micro Laser Peel.
Laser Peel Procedure:
The treatment begins with the cleansing of the skin in the targeted area, followed by the placement of protective eye shields. The laser handpiece, guided by a computer scanner, moves across the treatment area. Depending on the depth of the treatment, topical numbing may be applied.
Duration of Laser Peel Treatment:
Typically, laser peel treatments take between 30 and 45 minutes, depending on the condition and the size of the area being treated.
Recovery Expectations:
NanoLaser Peel and Micro Laser Peel are often referred to as “weekend peel” treatments due to their minimal discomfort and recovery time. Post-treatment care instructions will be provided to ensure proper healing and care.
Skin Improvement with Laser Peels:
The precise ablation of a thin layer of skin by the laser beam removes old, dull, and damaged tissue, leading to the emergence of healthier-looking skin. The result is a reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, and more even pigmentation, transforming tired and dull skin into a vibrant, youthful appearance.
Aggressiveness of Laser Treatments:
Both Nano Peel and Micro Peel fall into the medium ground of skin treatments, offering effective results without the extensive recovery associated with deep laser resurfacing.
