Peel Back a Brighter, More Beautiful You
MicroLaserPeel at PureMD utilizes advanced erbium laser technology to target signs of aging and damaged skin. We can customize this treatment to be gentle or more intense. It works by removing dead and damaged skin cells on the top layer of the skin. The laser technology generates collagen production and cell regeneration, which then results in smoother, healthier skin!
Whether you have sun damage from years out on the lake, skin laxity and wrinkles, or acne scarring, MicroLaserPeel is a fantastic option to completely refresh and revitalize your complexion.

What to Expect
Consultation
We always begin our treatments with an in-depth consultation, which allows us to discuss your desired results and aesthetic goals. With this information, we can customize a unique treatment plan that accommodates your individual needs. During this process, we encourage you to ask any questions you may have about the treatment. We'll go over the process in as much detail as you need to feel comfortable.
Treatment
For your MicroLaserPeel treatment at PureMD, we'll begin by applying a topical numbing cream to the treatment area, which will diminish any discomfort during the treatment. Then, your expert technician will gently use the MicroLaserPeel handpiece on your skin. You may feel a slight warming sensation. The device delivers light and heat energy into the skin, which ablates the top layer of the skin. This helps your skin to produce new collagen, and as it heals, you'll be left with soft, smooth, even-toned skin!
Next Steps
We recommend a series of 1 to 3 treatments, depending on your unique concerns. If you require additional appointments, we'll direct you to our front desk staff, who will gladly assist you in making those appointments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I expect during the recovery?
Patients experience redness and a burning sensation similar to a deep sunburn for up to 8 hours after a MicroLaserPeel treatment. Your skin may feel warm to the touch. These sensations should subside quickly. You can use a clean, damp cloth pressed against the treatment area to alleviate the discomfort. We recommend the Alastin Skin Care Post-Procedure kit.
How long does it take to see results?
Results will be visible after the damaged skin cells shed away, which is usually within 1 week of treatment.
How long do results from MicroLaserPeel last?
Patients can enjoy the benefits of 1 or more treatments for up to 6 months, at which point skin cells begin to accumulate. We recommend maintaining your results with treatments every 4 to 6 weeks.
