Step One
The first step is a five minute, physical or enzymatic exfoliation of the skin. This frees the skin of dead cellular layers and protein. And by reducing the top layer of the skin, it also lessens the appearance of fine lines, brown spots and age spots. A change in skin texture can be felt right away by brushing your hand across you cheek.

Step Two
In the second step, a 15-30 percent Alpha Hydroxy Acid solution is applied. It will stay on the skin for at least 15 seconds, but no more than 2 minutes. A slight stinging sensation may be felt, but it is only momentary and quite normal. This part of the MicroPeel® helps to reduce acne-related conditions by freeing impacted debris from the pores. This step is not recommended for sensitive skin.

Step Three
The third and final step of the MicroPeel® is a skin freezing process called Cryogenic Therapy. Carbon dioxide is applied to the face in light, circular motions. Immediately the coolness causes an anti-flammatory response. Pores look smaller. Sun damaged cells are cast off. Oil and blackheads are unblocked. The surface of the skin becomes smoother.
