About MiraPeel: Story of a Patient

Oct 14, 2024 | Cosmetic Dermatology, Medical Dermatology

As we age, our skin goes through a lot of changes. It becomes less elastic, more prone to damage from the sun and pollution, and starts to show the signs of ageing like fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots. Many of us turn to skincare treatments to help reduce the signs of ageing and improve our skin’s overall appearance. One such treatment that has gained popularity in recent years is Mirapeel.

Mirapeel is a non-invasive skincare treatment that combines microdermabrasion and chemical peels to exfoliate the skin and promote the growth of new, healthy skin cells. It is particularly effective at reducing the effects of photoaging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots. But is Mirapeel right for you? To find out, I decided to try it for myself and share my thoughts.

First, let me give you a little background on my skin. I’m in my mid-40s and have started to notice the signs of ageing, particularly around my eyes and mouth. I’ve tried a variety of skincare treatments over the years, but haven’t found anything that worked to reduce the signs of ageing. I was intrigued by Mirapeel and decided to give it a try.

During my consultation, my dermatologist explained the Mirapeel process and what I could expect. She also evaluated my skin to determine the best treatment plan for me. Based on my skin type and the severity of my photoaging, she recommended a series of three Mirapeel treatments.

The first treatment was a little uncomfortable, but not painful. The sensation was like a rough scrubbing, and the chemical peel felt slightly tingly on my skin. After the treatment, my skin felt a little raw and sensitive, but there was no redness or irritation.

Over the next few days, I noticed some peeling and flaking, which is a normal part of the process. My skin also felt tighter and smoother, and I could see a visible reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around my eyes and mouth.

I had two more Mirapeel treatments over the next few weeks, and each time, I saw further improvement in my skin’s appearance. The fine lines around my eyes and mouth were much less noticeable, and my skin looked brighter and more youthful.

Overall, I’m extremely happy with the results of my Mirapeel treatments. My skin looks and feels healthier, and I’ve received compliments on my complexion from friends and family. While it’s important to note that results can vary, I believe that Mirapeel is an excellent option for anyone looking to improve their skin’s overall appearance and reduce the signs of ageing. If you are considering Mirapeel as a treatment option, here are some factors to consider:

  1. Skin type: Mirapeel can be an effective treatment for a variety of skin types, but it is important to consult with a dermatologist to determine if the treatment is right for you.
  2. Concerns: Mirapeel can help to address a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, and acne scars. However, it may not be the best treatment option for all skin concerns.
  3. Treatment plan: Depending on the severity of your skin concerns, you may need to undergo multiple Mirapeel treatments to achieve the best possible results. It is important to discuss your treatment plan with your dermatologist and to follow their recommendations.
  4. Lifestyle factors: In addition to undergoing Mirapeel treatments, it is important to take steps to protect your skin from further damage. This includes wearing sunscreen, eating a healthy diet, and avoiding smoking.

Overall, I would highly recommend Mirapeel as a safe and effective treatment option for those looking to improve the health and appearance of their skin. While the treatment may not be right for everyone, it is worth considering if you are concerned about the effects of photoaging and other skin concerns. As with any medical treatment, it is important to consult with a qualified dermatologist to determine if Mirapeel is right for you.

I was told about Avané dermatology clinic by my best friend, who recommended them to me. He insisted that they offer quality services, are extremely professional and they offer genuine help. My best friend was a patient here, who was getting treatment for hair loss. I decided to heed his words, visited the clinic at the Yaya Centre in Nairobi and consulted with one Dr Pancholi. He was very kind and patient with me and listened to my predicaments well. He also gave me important insights, explaining everything I needed to know about my treatment. Months after having my MiraPeel treatment, I don’t regret anything. I am grateful that I got to experience the services of the Avané clinic. They were real professionals and I recommend them to anyone who wants a MiraPeel treatment.

It’s also important to follow your dermatologist’s post-treatment instructions carefully, which may include avoiding sun exposure and wearing sunscreen to protect your skin. Finally, it’s important to be patient and realistic about your expectations. While Mirapeel can produce significant improvements in your skin’s appearance, it may take several treatments to achieve the desired results.
