Sciton NanoLaserPeel

Refresh & Rejuvenate Your Skin

Nano Laser Peel

NanoLaserPeel® by Sciton is a gentle yet effective laser resurfacing treatment designed to refresh and rejuvenate the skin with minimal downtime. Often called the “weekend peel,” or “laser peel” this advanced laser treatment removes damaged outer skin layers, revealing smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin in just a few days.

Unlike traditional chemical peels, NanoLaserPeel® uses precise erbium laser technology to evenly exfoliate the top layer of the skin, improving fine lines, dullness, rough texture, and mild discoloration while stimulating collagen renewal for long-term benefits. The treatment is quick, comfortable, and requires minimal recovery, making it an ideal choice for those looking for a fast and effective skin refresh.

Most patients experience mild redness and a light peeling effect for a few days before unveiling radiant, glowing skin. Whether used alone or combined with other treatments, NanoLaserPeel® is perfect for achieving a smoother, more youthful complexion without the extended downtime of deeper laser treatments. Multiple treatments achieve continued results.

Pre-Treatment Instructions

Medications and Supplements:

  • Antiviral Medication (Valtrex 1000mg): Start 2 days before your procedure and continue for 2 days after if you have a history of cold sores or herpes simplex outbreaks.
  • Topical Anesthetics: A topical numbing cream will be applied to your skin before the procedure to ensure comfort.
  • Anti-inflammatory Medications: If prescribed (e.g., Xanax for anxiety or mild sedatives), take them as directed on the day of treatment.
  • Doxycycline (if prescribed): For one week after treatment to prevent infection, especially if the procedure is more aggressive.

Skin Care and Lifestyle:

  • Hydrate Your Skin: Ensure your skin is well-hydrated in the days leading up to the procedure. Drink plenty of water and use a moisturizing skincare regimen to prepare.
  • Stop Exfoliating Products: Discontinue any exfoliants such as retinols, glycolic acid, and strong exfoliating scrubs for at least 5-7 days prior to your treatment.
  • Avoid Self-Tanning Products: Stop using self-tanner or tanning beds 2-4 weeks before treatment to avoid any irritation or complications.
  • Avoid Direct Sun Exposure: Minimize sun exposure for at least 2 weeks prior to the procedure to avoid skin sensitivity and pigmentation issues.
  • Supplements to Avoid: Stop using supplements like fish oil, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, and Ginkgo Biloba 1 week prior to treatment as they can increase the risk of bruising or irritation.
  • Medication Restrictions: Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for 1 week prior to treatment. Inform your provider if you are taking any blood thinners.
  • Avoid Alcohol: Refrain from alcohol consumption for 2 days before and 2 days after treatment to reduce the risk of swelling and complications.
  • Accutane: Inform your provider if you have used Accutane (oral acne medication) in the past year. This can affect skin healing and treatment suitability.
  • Special Events: Schedule your procedure at least 4 weeks before any significant event, such as a wedding, vacation, or other special occasions, to allow time for proper healing.

Special Considerations:

  • Arrange for Transportation: If sedatives or oral medication will be used, plan to have someone drive you to and from your appointment.
