New "Weekend Peel" Helps Fight Facial Aging

Are You a Weekend Peel Candidate?

The Sciton Weekend Peel is actually a strategic combination of two laser treatments, the Micro Laser Peel and the Broadband Light treatment. In addition to the incredible improvement that patients experience, they also get the benefit of less downtime and a lower cost by combining these two procedures.

Sciton Micro Laser Peel: This facial peel is an intra-epidermal laser treatment, meaning it removes outer layers of skin to reveal fresh, newer skin underneath. Thanks to the extreme versatility of the Sciton laser, the Micro Laser Peel can be customized based on the patient's level of skin damage. Great results are delivered during a short treatment, with less healing time than other laser procedures (such as laser skin resurfacing).

Sciton Broadband Light Treatment: The "BBL" treatment utilizes Intense Pulsed Light, often referred to as a "FotoFacial," to reverse pigmentation problems and correct discoloration. Patients can expect treated areas to darken and then gradually fade, creating a more even, attractive skin tone.

The Weekend Peel works well to improve many skin conditions, including fine lines, wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, sunspots and other issues. Dr. Aycock will recommend a facial rejuvenation solution based on the current condition of your skin and your personal appearance goals. For some patients, a Weekend Peel may be all that is needed to achieve great results. For others, a combination of treatments might be the way to go.

Sciton®, an advanced laser and light source provider, delivers the amazing technology behind the "Weekend Peel," the newest non-surgical solution offered by Dr. Robert Aycock. This facial rejuvenation treatment can improve skin tone, texture, and shade with a gentle yet effective skin resurfacing technique - and it produces far more dramatic results when compared to other laser treatments.
