How Does a Laser Peel Work?
A laser peel, also known as Laser Skin resurfacing, works by using focused laser light to remove damaged layers of skin and stimulate the growth of new, healthier skin cells. The procedure involves a precision laser that targets the outer layers of the skin, promoting exfoliation and improving the skin's texture and tone. Depending on the type of laser used, the treatment can be customized to target specific skin concerns, such as fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, or acne scars.
During the Treatment, the laser creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing process. This leads to the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining firm, youthful skin. The depth and intensity of the laser can be adjusted based on the condition being treated, with some lasers offering a more superficial peel for mild concerns, and others penetrating deeper to address more severe skin issues. Recovery time varies depending on the type of laser used, but most patients experience some redness and mild swelling, with visible results appearing in a few days to weeks.
