The 3-Step Micropeel Treatment

The Micropeel procedure is a three-step process consisting of dermaplaning to manually exfoliate your problem spots, a chemical peel to remove old, dull layers of skin, and cryogenic therapy to remove dull, dead surface impurities.

Step 1: Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning uses a special place to manually exfoliate skin blemishes such as acne scars. At your skincare analysis, our aestheticians will determine your specific needs for dermaplaning. For example, we’ll skip this step in the case of skin lesions, active acne, or irritated skin conditions.

Step 2: Chemical Exfoliation

Our aestheticians will assess your skin and choose the right chemical peel for your skin type and goals. They’ll help you choose from our many options, including glycolic and lactic acid for normal skin types; niacin, lactic acid, and usnic acid for sensitive skin; and L-ascorbic acid with AHA acids for pigment balancing.

Step 3: Cryogenic Therapy

Lastly, we’ll use cryotherapy (CO2 therapy)—which helps to remove oil, dirt, and debris—to exfoliate the dull, dead skin cells while smoothing the skin’s appearance.

Original Micropeel vs. Micropeel Plus

This anti-aging treatment is not to be confused with Micropeel Plus, a one-step clinical procedure designed to control breakouts, while improving texture on patients with acne. This powerful peel is formulated with salicylic acid to refine pores and reduce acne irruptions and also features glycolic acid to aid in the improvement of rough texture, blotchiness, and uneven skin tone.
