Reveal a Younger You
Bring out your skin’s natural beauty! At Ocean Drive Dermatology in Vero Beach MicroLaser Peels are a gentle resurfacing treatment that reveals powerful results. The MicroPeel laser’s erbium resurfacing technology is more effective and has less downtime than traditional CO2 lasers. Its nickname is the “Weekend Peel” because downtime is generally two to three days. The treatment is designed to treat the surface of the skin, eliminate imperfections, smooth uneven texture, and minimize dullness, large pores, acne, and discoloration to create a more youthful appearance.
The depth of the MicroLaser treatment can be customized to help you achieve your skincare goals.
Flawless Skin Just Under the Surface
Have people wondering how your skin looks so flawless. The MicroLaser Peel vaporizes a very thin layer of skin to improve texture irregularities and even out the skin tone. We can tailor the MicroLaser Peel (MPL) to a weekend peel or something deeper to meet your skincare goals. The MicroLaser Peel can be a stand-alone treatment or combined with other treatments such as a ProFractional procedure. When used as a light resurfacing treatment, the MicroLaser Peel will even skin tone, smooth skin texture, and create a healthy, youthful glow with minimal downtime.
At Ocean Drive Dermatology, we offer the following MicroLaser Peels:
Usually 2 to 6 microns in depth, which is in the same realm as microdermabrasion. Topical numbing medication is provided for your comfort, although usually not needed.
Usually 8 to 10 microns in depth, which is equal to an aggressive microdermabrasion session. Topical numbing medication and a Zimmer Chiller are provided for your comfort.
We can customize a deeper peel or combine the MLP with our other laser procedures (Broadband Light, BBL, ProFractional) to provide even better results.
Treatment as Unique as You
During a MicroLaser Peel Vero Beach patients typically target the face, neck, chest, and hands to decrease the look of soft wrinkles and correct skin discoloration like sun spots or other pigmentation irregularities. The main benefit of having a MicroLaser Peel is that the depth of resurfacing can be customized to your needs.

Comfort and Care During Your Procedure
Get ready to be gorgeous. Treatment time is typically around 30 minutes. A topical numbing cream is provided for you to keep you comfortable during your procedure. ProNox, a handheld, client-controlled device containing 50% oxygen and 50% nitrous oxide, is also offered to our clients undergoing deeper peels. During your treatment, the MicroLaser Peel device will deliver laser energy to the surface layers of your skin to stimulate collagen production. The superficial layer of your skin will be removed by the peel to reveal a fresher, younger-looking you in only a matter of days.
Flawless Results
The results of a MicroLaser Peel will speak for themselves. After the initial few days of recovery, when the surface layer of your skin is sloughed off, younger, healthier, brighter-looking skin will be revealed. You will notice, especially after multiple treatments, that wrinkles have softened, skin discoloration has been drastically decreased, the look of acne scars has been reduced, and your skin looks clearer, brighter, and younger.
One Weekend to a New You
You should expect to have skin that will peel away over several days, along with some skin redness (erythema) and a sensation like a sunburn. There is the possibility of some swelling, and this is considered a normal side effect of the treatment. The recovery can be just a few days and has earned the nickname of the “weekend peel.” So if you have the treatment on a Friday, usually you will feel comfortable enough to return to work on Monday. The recovery will be a few more days if we utilize more aggressive settings. It is vital to utilize sunscreen once you have recovered to help maintain your results and avoid sun exposure during the recovery process. A gentle cleanser and gentle moisturizer are all that are needed during the recovery phase of the MicroLaser Peel. Our Red LightStim treatment can be added to any MLP 24 hours later. This will help accelerate the recovery time and reduce swelling.
We recommend starting with a single treatment, and then your medical provider will create a treatment plan for maintaining the results and your aesthetic goals. You will have noticeable results after one treatment; however, additional treatments will help you achieve long-lasting flawless skin.
The MLP is not a painful procedure, and usually, topical numbing cream and a Zimmer Chiller are all that you need to make it through the procedure. For a deeper peel, we sometimes utilize Pro-Nox. Pro-Nox delivers a mixture of 50% oxygen and 50% nitrous oxide. This device is a 100% patient-controlled form of inhaled anesthesia. Simply breathe deep, and in seconds there will be immediate relief of pain and anxiety. The Pro-Nox anesthesia leaves your body in just a few minutes after treatment. You can continue your day immediately after treatment. Pro-Nox can be added to any MLP to increase your comfort.
Yes, we love combining the MLP with a Broadband Light (BBL) or even ProFractional treatment.
The face and neck are two common areas, along with the chest and hands.
