Chemical Peels

ß-LIFTx® is powerful. It impressively outperforms traditional superficial chemical peels. And, unlike those peels, ß-LIFTx® does not wound the skin.

ß-LIFTx® is a five-minute procedure which brings about renewal by lifting the dead cells off the surface of your skin. This stimulates reproduction in the cells underneath. With ß-LIFTx® you can quickly achieve substantial improvement in the appearance of superficial lines and uneven pigmentation, while making your skin look and feel softer, smoother, and better moisturized. Even acne scars and enlarged pores may become less noticeable.

 


How does ß-LIFTx® differ from other chemical peels?

ß-LIFTx® has important advantages over traditional chemical peels. Unlike these other peels, ß-LIFTx® does not damage the deeper, healthy skin cells. This means that you can continue to have regularly scheduled ß-LIFTx® treatments for as long as you want. Over time, ß-LIFTx® will not only rejuvenate the appearance of your skin, but will allow your skin to build and maintain a healthy barrier against the environment — one of the skin’s primary roles.

What improvements can I expect to see with ß-LIFTx®?

The initial ß-LIFTx® treatment will remove the dead cells on the surface of your skin. This stimulates the process of natural skin renewal. Immediately after the first treatment, your skin will appear more radiant and feel softer and smoother. In addition, you may begin to notice a softening of superficial lines, evening of pigmentation, fading of dark spots, and diminution of enlarged pores and acne induced scars. Conditions such as acne and rosacea may also improve.

With each additional ß-LIFTx® treatment you should see incremental gains in the overall appearance of your skin as the natural renewal process receives further stimulation. You can expect subsequent ß-LIFTx® treatments to maintain the improvements in softness, smoothness, and radiance while continuing to diminish the appearance of superficial lines and skin imperfections.

Like all cosmetic treatments for photo damage, ß-LIFTx® cannot reverse all of the effects caused by years of sun exposure. You will likely reach a point where the appearance of your skin has reached its maximum level of improvement. At that time, you may wish to schedule your ß-LIFTx® treatments less frequently—using ß-LIFTx® to maintain the gains you have made and also to periodically freshen the appearance of your skin.

You should discuss with your dermatologist the types of improvements you would like to achieve with ß-LIFTx® treatments, the areas where you would like to see change, the speed with which you expect to see results, and the amount of peeling that will be acceptable to you. Together, you and your dermatologist will be able to set realistic expectations and design a ß-LIFTx® treatment regimen that is best suited to meeting your needs.

Safety and Complications:

Like other chemical peels, the ß-LIFTx® treatment may cause a flare of herpes simplex (cold sores) in patients who have a history of herpes simplex; an acne flare; mild skin inflammation (especially around the sensitive areas of the eyes and mouth); temporary spots of increased or decreased pigmentation that will naturally resolve themselves within four weeks; or a temporary increase in skin sensitivity. Some patients may also experience considerable peeling.
