LASER PEELS Q&A
What are Laser Peels?
Laser peels, also known as laser skin resurfacing, use concentrated light energy to precisely remove damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating collagen production in the deeper layers. This reveals fresh, new skin beneath and triggers your body's natural healing response for continued improvement over time.

Stimulated collagen production for lasting results
How Do Laser Peels Work?
During a laser peel, the laser precisely removes the outermost layers of damaged skin in a controlled manner. Simultaneously, the heat from the laser penetrates into the deeper skin layers, causing collagen fibers to contract (immediate tightening) and stimulating the production of new collagen over the following weeks and months.
The depth of the peel can be adjusted based on your specific concerns and desired downtime. Lighter peels remove only the surface layer with minimal downtime, while deeper peels provide more dramatic results but require more healing time.
Types of Laser Peels We Offer
Er:YAG Laser Peels - The erbium laser is excellent for superficial to medium-depth peeling. It precisely ablates the outer skin layer with minimal thermal damage to surrounding tissue, resulting in faster healing and less downtime compared to CO2 lasers.
Cold Ablation Peels - Using Fotona's advanced technology, cold ablation removes surface imperfections with minimal heat transfer, making it gentle yet effective for skin rejuvenation.
Customized Depth Peels - Your provider will customize the depth of your laser peel based on your skin type, concerns, and desired results, ensuring optimal outcomes with appropriate downtime.
What to Expect During and After Treatment
Before treatment, your skin will be cleansed and a topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort. During the procedure, you'll feel warmth and a mild prickling sensation. Treatment time varies from 15-45 minutes depending on the area and depth of peel.
Afterward, your skin will appear pink to red, similar to a sunburn. Depending on the depth of your peel, you may experience peeling and flaking for 3-10 days. It's essential to protect your new skin from sun exposure and follow all aftercare instructions for optimal healing and results.
Am I a Good Candidate for Laser Peels?
Laser peels are excellent for anyone wanting to address sun damage, fine lines, uneven texture, or scarring. They work best on lighter skin tones, though advances in technology have made laser peels safer for more skin types. During your consultation, we'll evaluate your skin and recommend the most appropriate treatment for your goals.
