How it works

There are three major steps to the Perlis MicroPeel Facial in Highland Park. First, we dermaplane the area. Dermaplaning is a highly efficient, safe, manual exfoliation technique. It’s used to clear away dry, dead, superfluous skin layers and surface debris. This clinical procedure is performed by our medical skincare specialists. Each is trained in the use of a modified surgical blade designed specifically for this purpose.

The next step of your MicroPeel Facial is the peel itself. The peel uses optimized solutions formulated for resurfacing the skin by removing the outer epidermis and stimulating collagen remodeling. This improves hyperpigmentation, fine lines, texture, and skin imperfections. Finally, we apply cryotherapy (carbon dioxide) for an immediate anti-inflammatory response. This will also help remove excess dead or damaged skin, unblock blackheads, and shrink pores. This helps the skin surface appear incredibly smooth.

Depending on your overall goals, this treatment is great combined with various anti-aging, anti-acne, and hyperpigmentation therapies. It also works with tightening and injectable procedures. Some of our patients will even schedule a MicroPeel procedure directly before Botox or fillers! You can also see dramatic improvement by alternating MicroPeel Facials with laser and IPL technology. Combination therapy can help further correct damage and reveal healthier, more youthful skin.
