NanoLaserPeel in Toledo

Before arriving for your NanoLaserPeel treatment, there are a few simple steps you should take, including:

• Avoid sun exposure when possible, and always wear sunscreen and/or protective clothing when you need to go outside for at least 2 weeks. 
• Stop using retinoids and exfoliants, including AHAs and BHAs, for at least 1 week before your appointment to maintain your skin’s barrier and prevent sensitivity. 
• Hydrate and nourish your skin leading up to your visit by moisturizing and drinking plenty of water, which will also help the healing process. 
• Skip harsh treatments like waxing and abrasive skin treatments for at least 1 week, and remember to arrive with clean skin—free of makeup and skincare products. 

Your Blush provider will go over these instructions and answer your questions during your consultation, so you know exactly what to expect and how to set your skin up for long-term success.

After your NanoLaserPeel appointment, it’s important to be gentle with your skin while it heals—your skin will thank you later. Removing damaged skin cells and surface-level build-up allows for topical skincare products to penetrate deeper into your skin for the next 10 to 14 days—making them more effective—so take advantage of this opportunity!

Our skin experts recommend that you:

• Follow our post-care instructions and use the products we provide to help your skin heal more quickly and comfortably. 
• Do not pick at your skin if it begins to peel a few days after your treatment. Allow your skin to shed its damaged and dead cells naturally. 
• Protect your skin from the sun for at least 2 weeks, as it will be more sensitive after treatment. 
• Continue avoiding harsh products like retinol and exfoliants for at least 7 days to avoid irritating your skin while it recovers. 

Most of our patients feel comfortable returning to work and social activities 2 to 3 days after treatment, hence the nickname “the weekend peel.”

Our skin specialists strongly recommend optimizing your at-home skincare routine after using our NanoLaserPeel in Toledo because any product’s active ingredients can penetrate deeper into your skin, making them more effective. We use the NanoLaserPeel device to remove the outermost layer of skin, making your skin more permeable—allowing liquids to pass through—for about 10 to 14 days (until your skin’s barrier rebuilds).

That being said, it’s important to choose the right products with the right active ingredients. Unlike the over-the-counter products that line drugstore aisles, our collection of medical-grade skincare products contains higher amounts of more potent active ingredients that have been proven to target specific concerns. 

At Blush Aesthetics, you’re never alone on your skincare journey; our specialists will help you choose the right products to take your results from a NanoLaserPeel treatment further from the comfort of home. For example, we may recommend products that are rich in vitamin C for a patient looking to brighten their complexion, while a growth factor formula may be ideal for someone looking to boost their collagen levels to reverse and prevent skin aging. Your skin is unique, so at Blush, your treatment plan is, too.

While both laser peels and chemical peels offer next-level exfoliation that you can’t achieve at home, they work in different ways. Our laser specialists use the NanoLaserPeel in Toledo to precisely remove the outermost layer of skin with controlled laser energy. A chemical peel removes that upper layer with an acidic solution that dissolves dead skin cells. 

Neither is universally better than the other, but we’ll help you determine which is best for you during your consultation—keeping in mind that laser peels grant us more control over the depth of your treatment and require less downtime.

NanoLaserPeels only affect the outer-most layer of your skin, which means most patients feel minimal discomfort.

We recommend you take the next 24 hours before returning to your normal schedule, just to ensure your skin stays fully protected and comfortable. Ideally, patients would take 1 to 3 days before returning to their normal routine.

Most of our patients start to see results in about about 3 to 8 weeks after their treatment.

Treatment with NanoLaserPeel only takes about 5 to 10 minutes!
