Fine lines, sun spots, and uneven texture can make your skin look tired long before you actually feel it. If creams and serums have stopped delivering the results you want, it may be time for something more powerful. Pearl Laser is a deep fractional laser treatment designed to refresh your skin from the inside out, smoothing wrinkles, fading discoloration, and restoring a healthy glow.
At Old Town Med Spa, your treatment is performed by Dr. Nael Gharbi and Dr. Shazel Gharbi, the MD Brothers and founders of our practice. They are among the top cosmetic physicians in Chicago, with more than a decade of experience helping patients look and feel their best.
What Is Pearl Laser?
Pearl Laser is an advanced fractional skin resurfacing treatment that uses pulses of light to renew the skin’s surface. It works by removing damaged outer skin cells while delivering controlled heat to deeper layers, sparking your body’s natural collagen production.
Pearl Laser can help improve:
-
Fine lines and wrinkles
-
Sun damage and discoloration
-
Uneven skin texture
-
Enlarged pores
-
Mild facial laxity
-
Acne scars
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Pearl Laser works best for patients with light to medium skin tones who want to address deeper wrinkles, sun damage, or acne scarring. Because the treatment is more intensive, it isn’t recommended for darker skin tones due to the risk of hypopigmentation. Your provider will review your skin type, goals, and medical history during your consultation to confirm Pearl Laser is the right fit for you.
What to Expect During Treatment
Before your session, a topical numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable. The laser then delivers rapid pulses that feel like quick, hot pinches as it creates tiny channels in the skin and removes columns of damaged tissue. Most treatments take 30 to 60 minutes. Because Pearl Laser is more intensive than entry-level lasers, one of our doctors performs the procedure personally.
Recovery and Results
For the first few days, your skin may look and feel like a sunburn, followed by light peeling as fresh skin emerges. Avoid makeup until the peeling is complete, usually around day five. Most patients notice visible improvement within a week, with peak results developing over one to three months as new collagen continues to form.
