Sun damage and environmental pollutants adversely affect the skin as a person ages. This leads to wrinkles and pigment aberrations, especially on facial skin.

A laser peel can effectively reduce or eliminate these problems. It is also an excellent way to reduce visible lines around the mouth and eyes without involving cosmetic surgery.

Various types of lasers are used to perform peels. However, Contour TRL is widely regarded as one of the safest and most successful laser skin resurfacing treatments available to patients today. Focused board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Bryson Richards provides laser skin resurfacing to patients in Las Vegas, NV and surrounding communities in The Silver State.

What is Contour TRL Erbium Resurfacing?

Contour TRL is an Erbium Yag laser which has been developed for skin resurfacing by eliminating a variable depth of aging and damaged skin. It can successfully reduce or eliminate fine lines and wrinkles as well as pigment irregularities. It also enhances the overall thickness and pliability of the skin by promoting the growth of fresh collagen.

After the treatment, the surface of the skin regenerates new and healthy cells. This gives the skin a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.

The treatment depth depends on the skin condition, desired results, and acceptable downtime of each patient. Unlike plastic surgery, this is an in-office procedure which is individualized to the particular skin goals of a patient.

How Does Contour TRL Laser Peel Work?

Contour TRL safely removes a layer of skin to a depth determined by the physician. The depth of treatment will depend on the patient’s skin condition, desired outcome, and expectation for downtime. As Contour TRL impacts the skin tissue with micron precision, the physician can treat the patient’s skin with the accurate amount of energy required.

Laser treatment promotes the production of fresh collagen which enhances the thickness and resilience of the skin. The surface of the skin will also develop new and healthy cells. This offers the skin a youthful and rejuvenated appearance.

What Conditions can be treated with Contour TRL?

• Deep wrinkles, even in challenging areas such as the eyes and mouth
• Scars
• Poor skin tone and texture
• Actinic Keratoses
• Solar spots

What will happen during the Procedure?

The treatment provider will thoroughly cleanse the skin in the treatment site and place protective eye shields. They will then position the laser handpiece over the skin and hold it in place while the computer-guided scanner moves the laser ray over the treatment region. The procedure typically lasts for 15 to 30 minutes depending on the size of the treatment area.

What Should I Expect Immediately Following the Treatment?

The patient may have redness and a sunburn-type sensation right after the treatment. There may be some inflammation in the treated sites as well.

The physician will advise the patient on aftercare following the treatment. This may include analgesics and using an ointment to ensure that the skin stays moist.
