Microlaser peel is abroad term and used loosely by many practitioners. For a laser to be effective, in not only taking brown spots off but also to tighten the skin, it needs to penetrate deeper than just the top corneal layer of the skin. Very superficial laser peels result in only a temporary improvement. They are still the treatment iof choice for patients with little or no downtime. Deeper laser peels penetrate 50-150 Microns into the kin and result in tightening and removal of brown spots. Discuss your options with your doctor and consider doing a test spot behind the ear to find out what level of lase rtherapy is appropriate for you.
Laser peeling is an excellent method of building collagen in the skin. Combine with Melapeels every other month. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles
Thank you for your question.Microlaser peels do not penetrate deep enough to stimulate collagen production. A deeper resurfacing can be done with a Profractional laser which goes into the dermis of the skin and stimulates collagen. Good luck with your decision.
Thanks for your query. Micro peel do not penetrate deep enough to stimulate collagen. For collagen remodeling radio frequency or ultrasound treatments work better. Hope it helps.All The Best
Thank you for sharing your question. In order to stimulate collagen production, increase elasticity of the skin, remove wrinkles and tighten the skin a certain depth of treatment is required. Superficial treatments will give minimal and temporary improvements. Consider having your procedure performed with an erbium laser. The results are usually excellent and downtime is not long. Good luck,
Erbium laser peels can promote collagen production if the peel is deep enough. You will see some results after you heal from the treatment, but it also takes months to see the full benefits of the treatment. Always seek treatment from a qualified professional. Good luck!
By removing 20 microns of skin it will stimulate new collagen formation .It will not address deeper wrinkles or acne scars .For that fractionated or a deeper laser procedure is necessary.
Micro laser peel can be adjusted from 5 microns, all the way to a full peel at 100 microns deep. Deeper peels will stimulate more collagen. Most often I combine a micro peel with a fractional laser, and this gives an additive effect on collagen stimulation. This is known as Hybrid Laser resurfacing. All the best, Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane.

Thanks for our query. It’s a long time to settle the redness. I believe you should consult your treating doctor and discuss about the problem. Hope it helps.All The Best
Thank you for sharing your question. Sorry to see how long your recovery is taking. It is uncommon to be that red so long following erbium skin resurfacing. Your doctor might want to consider using topical steroid cream. The skin will likely return to normal, but I would make an appointment for...
Thanks for the query. Sciton micro peel is also called weekend peel. It generally takes 3-4 days to heal or if given many passes then 2-4 weeks. As you have surpassed the time you should consult your treating physician. Hope it helps.All The Best
Thanks for your query. Co2 laser works better for the fine lines and skin laxity, it is worth the downtime. Micro peel also helps in skin resurfacing but it requires a no. of sittings and may not reach up to that level. You can attach your picture for better result.All The Best
I recommend lighter fractional lasers combined with Melapeels to help improve skin tone and color. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles
The effectiveness and safety is equally good in patients 18 or younger compared with the 40+ age group. If parental consent is given, then treatment may commence with the patient's consent as well. Risks of hyperpigmentation and scarring, which are rare, do exist and sun protection pre and post...
