The Spectra Laser Facial Peel & How It Works
The Spectra laser uses the 1064nm wavelength. This energy can be used to not only gently exfoliate the outer layer, but also to tone and firm the skin by promoting the formation of new collagen.
Spectra is safe for all skin tones since it is rather resistant to being absorbed by melanin outside the treatment areas.
Despite the gentle nature of the treatments, laser peel and toning through the Spectra laser is capable of producing powerful and highly controllable results.
During a facial peel procedure, a carbon based lotion called Levulan is applied on the skin’s surface. This helps the Spectra wavelengths to enter the skin’s pores.
The carbon reacts with the long pulse laser energy to create small explosions on the surface of the skin, including the pores.
This causes the outer layer of the skin to start peeling. Pores become unblocked. Less oil is produced since the laser will burn away the outer layer of the sebaceous glands.
Heat from this process stimulates the production of new collagen fibers. This tightens the area around the skin’s pores, enabling them to become smaller.
The end effect of a Spectra laser peel is comparable to a chemical peel. However these procedures are much safer. This is because the doctor can control how deep the laser energy will penetrate. The action of chemicals, on the other hand are much less predictable.
