When Should You Get Micro Laser Peel

By Annabelle Holman


Laser skin treatments are highly effective on any skin type, but some are more invasive than others. In Cincinnati, several laser skin rejuvenation clinics offer also micro laser peel treatments. It is far less invasive, but still more effective than, for example, micro dermal abrasion and some chemical peelings. This procedure can remove some epidermal layers and improve skin condition immensely, removing pigmentation, age spots and lines.

Other less invasive treatments such as micro dermal abrasion, cannot provide so effective results. The reason for it is the fact that similar treatments remove only superficial skin layer, in other words, dead skin cells. They don't touch deeper epidermal layers. Micro peel removes some of epidermal layers as well, but sometimes it cannot be done in a single treatment.

It affects overall skin condition, improves texture, make your skin tighter, smoother and better looking, in short, younger. It removes smaller skin imperfections, age spots, lines and some wrinkles. If your wrinkles are really deep, they might need more serious approach, but even they might appear less visible. The same thing is when it comes to scars. Some will become less visible, and some might get perfectly disguised.

Before starting with the procedure, your doctor will cleanse the skin and apply topical anesthetic on it, to numb the area. After forty minutes or so, he will start gently and precisely removing skin layers, using the latest and safest technology available. Most people want to improve skin condition of their faces, although all other areas can be treated as well. You can remove age spots from your hands, for example.

The specialty of this treatment is that it can precisely remove very thin layers of epidermis, gradually and depending on specific area's skin condition. It removes all dead skin cells, and then goes deeper in epidermis, usually twenty to fifty microns deep. Depending on overall skin condition and results that are expected, two to four treatments might be required to accomplish these results.

The recovery process usually takes two to four days, depending on your ski sensitivity and the actual depth of epidermal layers removed. During this period you will feel certain level of discomfort, sometimes even pain. In fact, this might be quite similar to having really bad sunburn. The following day you will probably feel sloughing and itchiness. Initial intensive redness will gradually fade away.

It is important to apply prescribed ointment regularly, to protect the entire treated area. It can be replaced with high quality moisturizer after first few days. This special ointment protects skin from air and helps its recovery. When compared to more invasive laser treatments, this short recovery period, that doesn't even require bandages or longer recovery period, is something you can cope with.

After these few days of recovery, when every trace of redness disappears, your new skin will be much tighter and smoother. The texture will be visibly improved, most superficial discoloration and imperfections will be gone and you will look younger and healthier. Pores will become smaller and less visible, and skin tone will become more even. Consult your doctor about the best skin rejuvenation treatment for you before making your final decision.
