MICROPEEL
The MicroPeel® is a 15 minute, three-step, exfoliating procedure that removes a micro-thin top layer of skin to improve skin texture and appearance. The top layer is a significant obstruction to having better skin because it is pore-clogged. The procedure is safe, effective and is accomplished in 15-20 minutes with no recovery time.
Step One
The first step is a five minute, physical or enzymatic exfoliation of the skin. This frees the skin of dead cellular layers and protein. And by reducing the top layer of the skin, it also lessens the appearance of fine lines, brown spots and age spots. A change in skin texture can be felt right away by brushing your hand across you cheek.
Step Two
In the second step, a 15-30 percent Alpha Hydroxy Acid solution is applied. It will stay on the skin for at least 15 seconds, but no more than 2 minutes. A slight stinging sensation may be felt, but it is only momentary and quite normal. This part of the MicroPeel® helps to reduce acne-related conditions by freeing impacted debris from the pores. This step is not recommended for sensitive skin.
Step Three
The third and final step of the MicroPeel® is a skin freezing process called Cryogenic Therapy. Carbon dioxide is applied to the face in light, circular motions. Immediately the coolness causes an anti-flammatory response. Pores look smaller. Sun damaged cells are cast off. Oil and blackheads are unblocked. The surface of the skin becomes smoother.
How often would I have to have this treatment?
Similar to a facial, we recommend a monthly treatment. Depending on your skin type, however, treatments two times per month may produce a more dramatic result. You should also be aware that since any exfoliation increased photosensitivity to the sun, you must use sun protection.
