Revlite Laser Peel Treatment Highlights
- Non-surgical laser treatment performed in-clinic
- Short procedure, typically around 15 minutes
- Targets superficial, sun-related pigmentation
- Often used as a single initial treatment, with further treatments based on individual needs
- Involves a recovery period (see Treatment Summary and General Information)
The Revlite Laser Peel is a non-surgical treatment performed using the Revlite SI laser platform. Its 532nm wavelength targets superficial pigment caused by sun exposure and UV damage — such as age spots, sunspots and freckles — bringing it to the surface so it can flake away. The heat generated may also support the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production.
Treatment Discomfort:
Mild once numbed; varies individually
Longevity:
Not permanent; varies individually
Location:
Available at all MedAesthetics clinics.

Revlite Laser Peel Procedure Information
Treatment Areas
Used on the face, and may help address the appearance of sun-related skin changes, including:
- Age spots and sunspots
- Freckles
- Uneven or dull skin tone
- Uneven skin texture
Common Names
- Revlite Laser Peel
- Laser peel
- Q-switched laser peel
MOA
The treatment uses the Revlite SI laser’s 532nm laser energy, which targets superficial pigment and brings it to the surface of the skin, where it gradually flakes away. The heat generated during the process may also stimulate the skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin. It can be combined with other treatments, such as Fraxel laser or skin needling, where clinically appropriate.
Revlite Laser Peel Treatment Summary
Number of Treatments
Usually one treatment is performed initially, with any further treatments based on your individual needs and confirmed at your consultation. Results vary between individuals.
Procedure Time
Each session is short, typically around 15 minutes.
Discomfort Level
Sensation varies between patients, with most reporting only mild discomfort once the skin is numbed; comfort measures such as topical anaesthetic cream or a skin-cooling device can be used, and pain management is discussed at your consultation.
Recovery Time
This treatment involves a recovery period: facial redness and mild swelling for around 5 to 7 days, with treated skin developing a brownish discolouration that flakes off over about 7 to 10 days.
Results
The treatment targets superficial, sun-related pigmentation such as age spots, sunspots and freckles, and the heat generated may also support the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production. Results and suitability vary between individuals.
Duration of Results
How long results last varies between individuals and depends on factors such as your skin, sun exposure, lifestyle and skincare routine; results are not permanent, so maintenance treatments may be recommended over time.
Resumption of Usual Activities
Patients are advised to avoid strenuous exercise and chlorinated water for the first 72 hours, and to avoid direct sunlight for 5 to 7 days while the skin recovers.
Aftercare
Patients are advised to use post-care creams, avoid direct sunlight for 5 to 7 days, and avoid strenuous exercise and chlorinated water for the first 72 hours; tailored aftercare guidance is provided at your appointment.
Revlite Laser Peel General Information
Risks
Possible side effects can include prolonged redness (uncommon), swelling, temporary pigment changes and, less commonly, other complications; these are explained during your consultation.
How to Choose Your Revlite Laser Peel Treatment Provider
A Revlite Laser Peel uses Q-switched 532nm energy to lift superficial, sun-related pigment, and it involves a genuine recovery period — so a few things are worth checking before you choose a provider:
- Whether a practitioner assesses your skin type and confirms the treatment is appropriate, since it isn’t right for everyone and skin types can respond to pigment differently
- Whether the operator is trained on this specific Q-switched platform and sets it for the pigment being treated
- Whether recovery is explained honestly — around 5 to 7 days of redness and mild swelling, then the treated skin darkening and flaking over roughly 7 to 10 days
- How the risk of temporary pigment change would be recognised and managed
- That the practitioner is qualified and registered, and gives you time to weigh it up rather than choosing on price alone
Why Choose MedAesthetics for Revlite Laser Peel?
A Q-switched peel deliberately brings pigment to the surface, so judgement about who it suits and how it’s set is what keeps it appropriate — getting that wrong is where unwanted pigment change comes from, which is why medical oversight is central to how it’s offered here. At MedAesthetics the Revlite Laser Peel is doctor-led and overseen by Dr Ehsan Jadoon (MED0001586460), Registered Medical Practitioner (general registration), and delivered by a qualified clinical team. Your skin type and suitability are assessed at an individual consultation before any treatment, and the benefits, recovery, risks and alternatives are discussed openly, with no pressure to go ahead. To find out whether the peel suits your skin, book a consultation.
