Microlaser Peel

MicroLaser peel is a non-ablative laser designed to gently resurface and exfoliate the skin resulting in a smoother and more radiant complexion. The laser works by heating the skin below the surface while simultaneously creating a controlled injury on the surface of the skin. In the days following the treatment, the skin will gently flake off leaving behind new fresh skin. Because this treatment is gentle, it is recommended that patients repeat the treatment 2-3 times for optimal results.

Because the surface of the skin is not broken there is only 1-2 days down time, making it the perfect weekend peel. You may apply make-up and return to normal activities 48 hours after the procedure. This laser is an excellent choice for patients who cannot afford to take time off for healing. The Microlaser peel targets fine lines, rough textured skin, and mild damage caused by sun. It is safe to combine this laser with either the BBL to target darker pigment and melasma, or combine it with the Profractional Laser to address deep wrinkles, scarring, and collagen production.

Benefits of Micro Laser Peel

  • Effective choice for mild to moderate fine lines and skin texture issues
  • Improves penetration of skin care products, stimulates fibroblast (the body’s own healing cells) production and collagen re-bundling
  • 1-2 days downtime and very minimal discomfort (feels like a sun burn immediately after treatment)
  • Full recovery in 3-4 days with only minor flaking

See improvements in the texture of your skin in the first month with continued improvement over the following 60-90  days.

What To Expect on the Day of Treatment

The provider will apply a topical anesthetic ointment on the treatment area to ensure patient comfort. Once numb, the ointment will be removed and the skin cleaned. Treatment will take only a few minutes. The skin will become pink and will feel warm like a mild sunburn. Cooling air will be blown on the skin to prevent discomfort. Discomfort should resolve in 2-4 hours. You will be provided with instructions on how to care for their skin in the coming days.

Post Care

  • The patient will be given an ointment to take home which will need to be applied to the skin to keep it moist for the first 1-2 days
  • Skin will begin to flake starting somewhere around day 2 or 3. This flaking will be minimal and should be completed by day 5
  • Sunscreen MUST be applied to the skin daily
  • The patient will be provided with recommendations for daily skin care routine to improve the outcome of the laser treatment
  • Treatments are customizable as everyone has different needs. It’s important to meet with a provider to find the perfect solution for your lifestyle and skincare needs.

Profractional Laser

The Profractional Laser skin treatment is a mild ablative laser skin resurfacing procedure. The laser targets specific areas of your skin to dramatically reduce fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and sun damage. The results give you a younger-looking, fuller, and more vibrant appearance. This treatment is ideal for you if you want fast results without the downtime of full-field ablative laser procedures. Often, Profractional laser therapy is combined with other laser treatments (BBL or IPL Photofacial Laser and Micro Laser Peel) to enhance and provide more dramatic, accelerated treatment results. At Elite Body & Med Spa, we can help customize the treatment to address unique concerns.

Profractional uses laser energy to create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin which are surrounded by areas of the skin that is untreated. The untreated areas of the skin stimulate the natural healing process and the areas that are treated stimulate the production of new collagen, which results in plumping the skin, smoothing out wrinkles, reducing acne scar appearance, and improving sun damage.

Benefits of Profractional

  • Comfort – Your provider will apply a topical soothing gel to ensure ProFractional is comfortable from start to finish.
  • Low Downtime – You can enjoy normal social activities within a few days, there is no heavy or time-intensive post-care as opposed to other ablative lasers.
  • Fast Healing – After your ProFractional laser treatment, you may experience up to 3 days of sensitivity to sunlight and/or minor peeling.

Real Results –  The results are amazing! You will see noticeable results within weeks, with continued improvement to the skin for up to six months.

What To Expect

Before the treatment, your provider will place a topical anesthetic ointment on the treatment area for improved comfort to numb the area. You should feel minimal to no discomfort as she gently places the Profractional handpiece on the skin. After the treatment, most patients will continue to feel warm for an additional 30 to 60 minutes, or a bit longer with deeper treatment levels.

Post-Care

  • Majority of heat and tenderness should be no more than 8 hours, regardless of the depth of treatment.
  • It is important to keep the skin consistently moisturized with non-fragranced ointments for the first 3 days after treatment to allow the skin to remain soft and pliable.
  • 24 hours after treatment, the skin may feel slightly swollen and/or itchy. It may peel, this should resolve within 3 to 5 days.
  • You may apply makeup after 24 hours, but should wear sunscreen and avoid sun exposure for 4 weeks after treatment.

Treatments are customizable as everyone has different needs. It’s important to meet with a provider to find the perfect solution for your lifestyle and skincare needs.

BBL Photofacial

Broadband Light (BBL) technology is a form of photo light therapy used in aesthetics settings to improve the overall appearance of skin. It is often referred to as a photofacial. This non-ablative laser is considered the gold standard for treating certain types of pigment, sun damage, age spots, and redness conditions such as spider veins, rosacea, and acne. BBL lasers also can improve tone and pore size by stimulating your body’s collagen production. BBL is safe and effective when administered in a series, typically 2-3 treatments.

  • Results can begin in as little as 2 weeks
  • No down time, you can return to normal activity the next day

What To Expect on the Day of Treatment

The provider will apply a topical numbing cream to the treatment area to ensure the patient is comfortable. The light will be passed over the skin and the patient will feel mild rapid heating of the skin. Some people describe it as a feeling like a rubber band snap. The skin will begin to turn pink immediately the procedure and should feel warm like a mild sunburn. Cool air will be applied to the skin following the treatment. The following day patients will notice that the pigment darkens mildly before fading over the next 2-3 weeks.
