During a Micro Laser Peel in Frederick, you may experience some discomfort, often described as a mild stinging or warmth sensation on the skin. However, most individuals tolerate the procedure well, and topical numbing cream is often applied beforehand to minimize any discomfort. Your provider will prioritize your comfort and can adjust settings as needed to ensure a tolerable experience. After the anesthetic wears off, you may feel a soreness or sensitivity similar to a sunburn. These symptoms typically fade away within a few hours, but you can help relieve them with a clean, damp cloth if you experience any discomfort.

The recovery process after a Micro Laser Peel typically involves initial redness, swelling, and peeling, resembling a sunburn, which gradually improves over several days to a week as the skin heals. It’s essential to follow post-treatment care instructions provided by your provider, including gentle cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection, to optimize healing and achieve the best results.
Your skin may feel itchy or sore as you heal, but it’s important that you don’t scratch or irritate your skin during this time, as it can interfere with the healing process.
A micro laser peel harnesses laser energy to remove your outermost layer of skin, leaving you with a fresh skin layer with fewer blemishes, wrinkles, and debris. Many of our other laser treatments, such as Halo or our profractional skin resurfacing, target the interior layers of your skin to promote healing from within. All of these treatments have merit, but the best choice for you will depend on your skin and aesthetic goals.
A chemical peel is similar to a micro laser peel in that both methods remove the outer layers of skin, but the laser peel can be more exact and target specific areas better than a chemical peel, which is better for more general overall skin renewal.
If you are unsure which treatment is right for you, ask your provider today and together we can come up with a personalized treatment plan specific to your skin’s needs.
