Laser Peels, also known as Laser Skin Resurfacing, is a method of removing damaged skin cells in the outermost layer of the skin using beams of laser energy. By removing the damaged cells, it allows for new, healthier skin cells to take its place. The laser will boost the production of collagen which is a building block of youthful skin and will stimulate skin cells to renew and repair themselves creating a smooth texture and tightening effect on treated skin.

Different lasers and depths of intervention can be customized to provide a range of benefits and recovery times.
