Micro Laser Peel
TM
- "The Weekend Face Peel"
Most of us grew up thinking that the sun was put in the sky for us to roast under. The excessive exposure to the sun and wind combines with the natural loss of skin elasticity to prematurely wrinkle and age skin, especially for those of us with active outdoor lifestyles. Micro Laser Peel
TM
uses the power of the Erbium YAG laser to go deeper (20-60 microns) than microdermabrasion (4-10 microns) or most chemical peels in the removal of damaged layers of skin, whether from sun or acne scarring. And the best part, even though the Micro Laser Peel
TM
gives great results, it doesn't require the downtime associated with full skin resurfacing.
With the advice of Dr. Mudd, you can decide the depth of your Micro Laser Peel
TM
to customize your treatment to improve your unique skin conditions. When used in conjunction with
Botox
, Micro Laser Peel
TM
creates a dramatically effective combination that both erases wrinkles and also prevents them from coming back! Micro Laser Peel
TM
can be combined with the ThermaScan tightening laser to stimulate collagen production to tighten and rejuvenate skin even further. Micro Laser Peel
TM
also can be used for scar revision associated with acne or surgical scarring as well as to remove individual skin moles.

FAQ
=======
Q. What can I expect to look like?
A. It's not the fountain of youth...but it is the next best thing. You'll have smoother, healthier skin, with a more youthful glow. You'll also experience an immediate change in skin texture and general firming.
Q. Will it take long to heal?
A. Healing takes 3-4 days, so if you have the procedure done on a Thursday or Friday you can return to work on Monday with most people wondering what looks different about you. Immediately after the procedure you'll look and feel like you have sunburn with minor skin sloughing on the second or third day. Some minor swelling can occur. Redness usually fades by the fourth day, although the skin can be pink colored for a few more days. Make-up can be applied at this point if desired until the pink color fades. It is possible to do several sessions of more superficial treatments rather than a single deeper session, if the patient wishes to avoid the days of redness that are seen with a deeper treatment. Many times when patients read about lasers on the Internet, the treatments were given by a CO

laser, which will give dramatic results but will take several months to heal. We use an Erbium YAG laser to minimize the amount of healing time.
Q. What does it feel like when you use a laser?
A. We will give you a topical anesthesia and your eyes will be protected using safety goggles. Since we use the Sciton laser, the beam will be delivered under the direction of a computer after the area of treatment has been assessed.
You may hear some minor popping or snapping as the outer skin layers are removed. Some people experience a sensation of heat, similar to the feeling of the hot sun directly on you skin in the summer, but no significant discomfort. This new skin will be sensitive to ultraviolet light so you will need to avoid the sun and tanning beds until it is fully healed. (For this reason, this is a great winter time treatment.)
