Chemical Peels
Targeted exfoliation to refresh, resurface, and reveal smoother, brighter skin.
What are Chemical Peels?
A professional exfoliating treatment that removes dead skin cells and improves overall skin texture and tone.
Chemical peels are medical-grade treatments designed to improve skin clarity, smooth texture, and reduce visible signs of aging or sun damage. By applying a controlled solution of acids, the outer layer of damaged skin is exfoliated, allowing healthier, more radiant skin to emerge.
This treatment is ideal for patients who want visible improvement in tone, texture, pigmentation, and fine lines, or who want to complement other advanced skincare treatments.
How does a Chemical Peel work?
Chemical peels use a carefully formulated blend of acids, often including glycolic, salicylic, lactic, or trichloroacetic acid (TCA), to exfoliate the skin.
- The solution penetrates the upper layers of skin to loosen dead cells and stimulate cellular turnover
- Depending on the peel strength, it can improve pigmentation, smooth fine lines, and refine skin texture
- Post-treatment, the skin regenerates, revealing a brighter, smoother complexion
Chemical peels vary in depth from superficial (light) to medium-strength, with the appropriate formula selected for your skin type and goals.
Chemical Peels can help with:
- Dull or Dehydrated Skin
- Acne & Breakouts
- Fine Lines & Wrinkles
- Scars & Uneven Skin Texture
- Sun Damage & Age Spots
- Enlarged Pores & Oily Skin
Am I a good candidate for a Chemical Peel?
Chemical peels are suitable for many patients but are personalized based on skin type, tone, and goals.
You may be a good candidate if you:
- Want to improve skin texture, tone, or clarity
- Have pigmentation irregularities, sun damage, or mild scarring
- Desire a refreshed, brighter complexion
- Are seeking preventative anti-aging benefits
Skin Types & Safety
When performed by a trained professional, chemical peels are safe for most skin types and tones. The strength and formulation are customized to reduce the risk of irritation or post-inflammatory pigmentation. Pre- and post-treatment care is critical for optimal results and minimizing downtime.
Questions? We have answers.
When are results typically visible?
Superficial peels may show immediate brightness and improved texture. Medium-strength peels typically require a few days of peeling before results are visible. Full benefits develop over 1–2 weeks.
How often should treatments be repeated?
A series of 3–6 peels spaced 2–4 weeks apart is often recommended for optimal results. Maintenance peels can be performed as needed based on skin goals.
What can I expect during treatment? Does it hurt?
During treatment, the solution is applied to the skin and left for a controlled period. Patients may feel a mild tingling or warmth. Afterward, some redness and flaking are common, especially with medium-strength peels.
Is it safe?
Yes. Superficial and medium peels are generally safe for most skin types. A consultation ensures the correct peel type and formulation for your skin tone and concerns.
Is there any downtime?
Downtime varies based on peel strength. Superficial peels have minimal to no downtime, while medium peels may involve 3–7 days of flaking and redness.
Can this be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Peels are often combined with injectables, microneedling, facials, or customized skincare to enhance overall results.
