Sciton Micro Laser Peel

Micro Laser Peels with the Sciton laser precisely removes the outermost layer of the skin. We customize each treatment based on your skin condition. Skin conditions such as wrinkles, injury scars, acne scars, skin laxicity, keratosis, and pigment problems have been successfully treated with Sciton Micro Laser Peels. We produce dramatic results for men and women alike.

Prior to the Micro Laser Peel a topical anesthetic is applied for one hour to numb the skin. Then we will perform the treatment which will take about 20-30 minutes. We will instruct you on post laser skin care. After 2-3 days of redness the results are impressive and continue to improve for several months. This procedure can be repeated 1-2x a year, but just a single treatment yields substantial improvement.

Sciton Micro Laser Peels will:

• Rejuvenate the skin
• Reduce fine wrinkles
• Rejuvenate sun-damaged skin on face, neck and shoulders
• Reduce age spots on the face
• Reduce blotchy skin coloring
• Improve acne scars and any other superficial scars
• Improve fine to moderate lines around eyes, forehead, and lips
• Reduce hyperpigmentation

Sciton Laser Resurfacing

Still the standard for moderate to severely sun damaged and wrinkled skin. If you have 5 -7 days to spare a resurfacing can take 5 - 15 years off your face. Dr. Tomen uses the Sciton Profile Erbium Laser for all his laser peels and resurfacing procedures. The Profile is arguably the finest resurfacing laser in the world.

There are three ways in which we perform the Erbium Laser Peel:

1. Arctic Peel: The Arctic Peel is a minimal downtime Erbium:YAG peel that is performed using a stream of cold air to chill the skin during the procedure. No anesthetic is required. Mild redness is expected afterwards and it is generally ok to return to work the following day. Arctic Peels are commonly performed in a series of 3, each 2 weeks apart.

2. Erbium Weekend Peel - Microlaser Peel: The Erbium Weekend Peel gets its name because of the typical 2-3 day downtime often associated with the procedure. With the controlled resurfacing associated with this more aggressive peel, one should expect tangible and visible reduction in sun damage and fine lines in the skin after one procedure, though it is sometimes necessary to perform it a second time, one to two months later for a patient with significant sun damage or signs of aging. Topical anesthetic is utilized for the procedure. Agents such as Aquaphor or Vaseline are then utilized for 2 days afterwards to keep the skin from drying out. After the first few days, non-comedogenic moisturizers may be utilized. Sunscreen application is important after all peels.

3. Laser Resurfacing: This process is much more controlled than a medium-depth chemical peel. You can expect visible results with only 5-7 days of healing. The skin continues to repair over the next 3 months and improvements in skin texture, fine lines and damage will continue over this time. This procedure needs only to be done once. Clients may use makeup after 3-5 days and sunscreen is a must.
