About Laser Peels
What Is a Laser Peel
A laser peel uses an erbium laser to gently remove damaged surface skin. Unlike chemical peels, the depth is precisely controlled, so treatment can range from a light refresh to deeper resurfacing.
How a Laser Peel Works
Laser energy removes ultra-thin layers of skin. As the skin heals, it replaces them with fresh, healthy cells and stimulates new collagen, improving tone and texture.
What to Expect
Treatment takes about 30–45 minutes. You may feel warmth and light prickling. Afterward, skin looks pink and may feel like a mild sunburn, with flaking for three to seven days depending on the depth.
