BioMedic MicroPeel®
Improving Skin Clarity
The BioMedic MicroPeel is an alphahydroxy (AHA) treatment which uses a unique, three-part system to remove a micro-thin top layer of skin.
Although Plastic Surgery Associates does not recommend the MicroPeel for reducing the appearance of wrinkles, the treatment can improve your skin’s clarity and tone.
What does the MicroPeel involve?
The first step exfoliates your skin, freeing it of dead cellular layers and lessening the appearance of fine lines and brown spots. In step two, a 15 to 30 percent alphahydroxy acid solution is applied to your face, freeing impacted debris from your pores. Finally, carbon dioxide is applied to your face. The coolness causes an immediate anti-inflammatory response: Pores look smaller, sun-damaged cells are cast off, and oil and blackheads are unblocked.
The entire procedure takes about 15 to 20 minutes, and the change in your skin is visible immediately. It is safe enough that you can apply makeup right away. Monthly treatments are usually recommended, and use of the BioMedic Home Treatment Program of skin cleansers, conditioners, gels, creams and sunblocks can help maintain the effect.
