Reveal Smoother, Healthier, More Youthful Skin

Experience the next level of skin resurfacing with the Sciton MicroLaserPeel. This advanced laser treatment precisely removes the outermost layers of damaged skin to improve texture, tone, and overall skin quality. Often referred to as a “weekend peel,” the MicroLaserPeel delivers dramatic rejuvenation with less downtime than traditional laser resurfacing procedures, making it an excellent option for patients seeking noticeable results without extensive recovery.

Whether you’re concerned about fine lines, sun damage, uneven pigmentation, or rough skin texture, MicroLaserPeel can help restore a smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking complexion.

What is MicroLaserPeel?

The Sciton MicroLaserPeel is a precision erbium laser resurfacing treatment that removes a controlled depth of damaged skin cells from the epidermis. By stimulating the body’s natural healing response and encouraging collagen production, MicroLaserPeel reveals fresher, healthier skin while improving common signs of aging and environmental damage.

Unlike traditional chemical peels, MicroLaserPeel allows your provider to precisely control the depth of treatment, delivering predictable, consistent results tailored to your skin’s unique needs.

How It Works

Using advanced Sciton erbium laser technology, MicroLaserPeel gently vaporizes damaged skin cells from the skin’s surface. This controlled resurfacing process stimulates cellular renewal and collagen remodeling, resulting in smoother skin, improved tone, and a more refreshed appearance.

The treatment can be customized to address a variety of skin concerns, ranging from mild texture irregularities to more advanced signs of photoaging.

Benefits of MicroLaserPeel

  • Improves skin texture and smoothness
  • Softens fine lines and superficial wrinkles
  • Brightens dull, tired-looking skin
  • Reduces sun damage and age spots
  • Improves uneven skin tone and pigmentation
  • Stimulates collagen production
  • Provides noticeable rejuvenation with relatively short downtime
  • Creates a fresher, healthier, more youthful complexion

How Does MicroLaserPeel Compare to NanoLaserPeel and TRL?

Sciton offers a range of laser resurfacing treatments that can be customized based on your skin concerns, desired results, and downtime.

NanoLaserPeel provides very superficial resurfacing, making it ideal for refreshing dull skin, improving mild texture concerns, and maintaining overall skin health with minimal downtime.

MicroLaserPeel removes a slightly deeper layer of damaged skin, improving fine lines, pigmentation, sun damage, and uneven texture. It delivers more noticeable results than NanoLaserPeel while still offering a relatively quick recovery.

TRL (Tunable Resurfacing Laser) is the most aggressive resurfacing option. It penetrates significantly deeper into the skin to address advanced wrinkles, acne scarring, and more severe sun damage. While TRL can provide dramatic results, it also requires a longer recovery period.

In simple terms, think of these treatments as a spectrum:

NanoLaserPeel → Light Refresh
MicroLaserPeel → Moderate Rejuvenation
TRL → Advanced Resurfacing

Enhance Your Results with Combination Treatments

MicroLaserPeel works exceptionally well as part of a comprehensive skin rejuvenation plan. Because it improves the skin’s surface, it can be combined with treatments that target deeper layers of the skin for more complete results.

Popular combinations include:

  • BBL® HERO™ to address pigmentation, redness, and sun damage
  • MOXI® to improve overall skin quality and prevent signs of aging
  • Profractional to improve more significant textural concerns

By combining treatments, we can address texture, tone, pigmentation, and skin laxity simultaneously—creating healthier, smoother, and more radiant-looking skin with results that often exceed what a single treatment can achieve.

FAQs

Is MicroLaserPeel safe for all skin types?

MicroLaserPeel is generally best suited for lighter skin tones. During your consultation, your provider will assess your skin type and recommend the safest and most effective treatment plan.

How many treatments will I need?

Many patients achieve excellent results after a single treatment. Depending on the severity of your concerns and desired outcome, additional treatments may be recommended.

Does the treatment hurt?

Most patients report a sensation of warmth during treatment. Topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to ensure comfort.

How long does the procedure take?

Treatment usually takes between 30 and 45 minutes.

What should I expect during recovery?

Redness, tightness, and mild swelling are common for the first few days following treatment. As your skin heals, you will experience peeling and flaking as damaged skin is replaced by healthy new tissue.rnPatients should avoid direct sun exposure, strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and exfoliating products until healing is complete.

When will I see results?

Many patients notice brighter, smoother skin within one week. Improvements in texture, tone, and overall skin quality continue to develop over several weeks as collagen production increases.

Are the results permanent?

While MicroLaserPeel cannot stop the natural aging process, the improvements achieved are long-lasting. Maintaining a healthy skincare routine and protecting your skin from sun damage can help preserve your results.

Can I wear makeup after treatment?

Most patients can resume wearing makeup once the skin has sufficiently healed, typically within 5–7 days.

Is MicroLaserPeel safe?

Yes. When performed by an experienced and qualified provider, MicroLaserPeel is a safe and effective treatment with a strong track record for skin rejuvenation.
