About the Miria Laser by AVAVASkin

As we age, we lose essential components that support skin health. A gradual decline in collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid can cause our skin to develop wrinkles, fine lines, discoloration, and other imperfections that may affect the way we feel about our appearance. The desire for clearer, smoother, and tighter skin has led many people to seek effective treatments like the Miria Laser by AVAVA. The Miria Laser represents a significant advancement in aesthetic dermatology, primarily through photorejuvenation techniques. This laser technology utilizes light energy to stimulate collagen production while precisely targeting and repairing damaged skin. ⁽¹⁾ Due to its gentle nature, patients experience minimal downtime and rapid recovery, making it an attractive option among various anti-aging solutions available today. Miria is also safe for all skin types making it stand out from all of its counterparts.

This technology is widely recognized for its versatility in treating multiple concerns. ⁽²⁾ From acne scar treatments and pigmentation removal to skin tightening, the Miria Laser is designed to enhance skin texture and tone across all skin types. The frequency of procedures continues to rise, showcasing patient satisfaction and increasing acceptance of non-invasive cosmetic enhancements.

Preparation

Because the Miria Laser is a non-surgical procedure, it does not require extensive preparation. However, you will still receive some guidelines to follow, and adhering to these will help to optimize the results of your treatment. Patients should avoid excessive sun exposure in the days leading up to their procedure. It helps to be fully hydrated and consume a nutritious diet as well. If you are receiving the Miria Laser on your face, please do not wear makeup on the day of your procedure, and please wash your face thoroughly the night before and/or the morning of. Patients are asked to discontinue any retinol or harsh irritants at least a week prior. Finally, please also avoid any blood-thinning medications or supplements, nicotine, and alcohol for a few days before treatment. Following these guidelines diligently helps mitigate complications and ensures a smooth process.

Procedure

The Miria Laser skin rejuvenation procedure is simple, has a very low risk for complications, and does not take long. At the start of your treatment, the skin on your targeted treatment area will be cleansed and sanitized. A topical numbing cream is applied for approximately 30 minutes. The Miria Laser device also cools the surrounding tissue, helping patients remain comfortable throughout the procedure. ⁽¹⁾ Using the Miria Laser handpiece, your provider will target specific areas with the laser beam, treating skin imperfections while promoting healing. The Miria Laser device emits light energy through pulsed lasers. This light is specialized to ensure that your skin absorbs it. As skin cells absorb the light, they slowly heat up. This will kill off damaged cells and stimulate new cell production and increased collagen production, which repopulates your targeted treatment areas with new, healthy skin, free of wrinkles and blemishes. ⁽³⁾ Once the treatment is complete, your professional may apply a soothing gel to the treated area. Depending on individual needs, a typical session can take from 30 minutes to an hour. Our team will help you schedule regular follow-up sessions depending on your desired results.

Recovery

​​Recovery after Miria Laser treatments varies by treatment intensity but generally requires only a few days of care. Patients may experience mild redness or swelling similar to a sunburn. Patients should keep the treated area clean and moisturized with approved skincare products. We recommend avoiding excessive sun exposure and wearing sunscreen when outdoors, especially on bright days. While there is no lengthy downtime for Miria Laser treatments, we ask that patients avoid strenuous activities for a day or two. Most individuals return to normal activities within two to three days, enjoying gradual improvements as the skin heals and rejuvenates.

Results

Patients can expect notable improvements in their skin tone and texture following their Miria Laser treatment. While results may vary, most individuals notice enhanced radiance and smoother skin after healing, which could take up to a few weeks. Not only does the Miria Laser improve skin texture and quality, but patients also see tighter skin and a reduction in wrinkles as their collagen production continues to increase. Long-lasting effects often motivate repeat treatments, helping individuals achieve skin rejuvenation over time.

Corresponding & Complementary Procedures

The Miria Laser is only one of many non-surgical enhancement treatments offered at Austin Plastic Surgeon. Many patients will combine their laser treatments with chemical peels, which use specialized chemicals to peel away dead skin cells, revealing healthy, hydrated, youthful skin underneath. We offer patients the VI Peel chemical formula.

The Miria Laser is also not the only light-based treatment we offer. Our LED Light Therapy treatments have helped patients minimize wrinkles, red spots, acne, and more with ease. We also employ the Lumecca intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment, which is particularly effective at diminishing brown spots and dilated capillaries on the face, hands, and chest.

The Miria laser also pairs nicely with biostimulants to take your skin tightening to the next level whether on the face or body. This laser can even be done the same day as our cellulite treatment, Aveli, to treat both cellulite and skin laxity to the buttocks and thighs in the same treatment.
