What is a Micro Laser Peel?

A Micro Laser Peel using an Erbium laser is a noninvasive skin resurfacing treatment that focuses on the skin’s outer layers to improve fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and sun damage. The Erbium laser emits controlled light energy to precisely remove damaged skin cells, promoting collagen production and revealing fresher, smoother skin underneath.

Who are the
best candidates
for a Micro Laser Peel?

What’s the

The first step in starting a Micro Laser Peel using the Erbium laser is to meet with Dr. Gentile at either our Youngstown or Akron office for a consultation.

What to Expect
on the Day of a
Micro Laser Peel Treatment

As the Micro Laser Peel begins, Dr. Gentile carefully moves the Erbium laser across the treatment area, delivering precise bursts of energy to remove the outermost layer of skin. As the laser works, you’ll feel a warming sensation, with a slight tingling or snapping feeling in some spots. The intensity can vary depending on the depth of the treatment, but it remains comfortable with the numbing cream applied beforehand. The laser’s controlled energy stimulates collagen production, smoothing fine lines, sun damage, and uneven texture.

Micro Laser Peel Recovery

After a Micro Laser Peel with the Erbium laser, your skin will look and feel like you’ve had a mild sunburn. Redness and a bit of swelling are common right after the treatment, and over the next few days, your skin may feel tight and start to peel. This is a normal part of the process as the outer layer sheds to reveal fresh, healthier skin underneath. The peeling usually lasts about three to five days. During this time, keeping your skin moisturized and avoiding sun exposure is key.
