What is a YouthPeel™?

It is an intra-epidermal laser peel that precisely ablates the outermost layer of the skin. The procedure is individually tailored to the nature of the condition to be corrected. Skin conditions such as: wrinkles, scars, acne scars, laxity, keratoses, or pigmentary problems have been successfully treated with a YouthPeel™.

Who Should Consider a YouthPeel™?

If you are looking for more than a microdermabrasion or light chemical peels and have little time for a prolonged healing process, then the YouthPeel™ was designed for you.

How is the YouthPeel™ different from microdermabrasion?

Generally, microdermabrasion only removes the stratum corneum ( 10 microns ).

The YouthPeel™ is a partial-to-full epidermal peel ( 10-50 microns ) and is performed with a topical anesthetic. Because this procedure ablates deeper into the epidermis, it is the perfect step between microdermabrasion and full skin resurfacing.

How many YouthPeels can be done?

Typically, the procedure is repeated 2-4 times, spaced 6-8 weeks apart, but many peels may be done to achieve the desired result.

What can you expect?

You will experience smoother, healthier, more vibrant skin, with a significant, immediate change in skin texture and tightness as compared to microdermabrasion.

Q: My acne scars are really bad—I mean really bad!  Can you help me?

A: Of course we can! If you have those unsightly acne scars, our YouthPeel™ is just right for you!

Q: I read something about skin resurfacing helping with sun-damaged skin.  What is this all about?

A: After many years of wear and tear and sun exposure, your skin begins to look wrinkly and ropey.  We use our YouthPeel™ to remove this weather beaten layer of skin revealing the younger skin beneath.

How long is the healing process?

Healing takes 3-4 days. The procedure can be performed on Thursday or Friday, so you can return to work on the following Monday.
Symptoms immediately following the procedure resemble a sunburn, with minor sloughing on the second day. Redness will begin to fade by the third day and be easily covered by makeup on the fourth day.
