Chemical Peel
Chemical peels are a highly effective skincare treatment that offers a range of benefits for individuals seeking to improve their skin's appearance. By exfoliating the top layers of the skin, chemical peels help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and sun damage. They also improve skin texture and tone, revealing smoother, brighter, and more rejuvenated skin.
This treatment stimulates collagen production, which can enhance firmness and elasticity, making it an excellent option for those looking to address signs of aging. Additionally, chemical peels can help unclog pores, reduce acne breakouts, and promote a more even complexion. Available in various strengths, chemical peels can be customized to meet individual skin needs and goals, whether for mild exfoliation or more intensive resurfacing. We offer PCA, Vi-peel, and Skin Medica brands.

What is a chemical peel, and how does it work?
A chemical peel is a skincare treatment that uses a chemical solution to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin, promoting cell turnover and revealing fresher, smoother skin underneath. Depending on the strength of the peel, it can help reduce fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, and improve overall skin texture.
How long is the recovery time after a chemical peel?
The recovery time varies based on the strength of the peel. Mild peels may require little to no downtime, with some light peeling for a few days. Medium to deep peels may involve several days of visible peeling and redness, with full recovery in 7 to 10 days.
Are chemical peels safe for all skin types?
Yes, chemical peels can be customized to suit different skin types and concerns. Professional providers use specific formulations like PCA, VI Peel, or SkinMedica peels, which are designed to be effective and safe for various skin tones and sensitivities. A consultation with a skincare specialist is recommended to determine the best type of peel for your skin.
How often should I get a chemical peel?
This depends on the type of peel and your skincare goals. Light peels can be done every 4-6 weeks for ongoing maintenance, while medium-depth peels may be spaced out to every few months. A deeper peel might be recommended once a year, depending on your skin's needs. Your provider will guide you on the best treatment plan for optimal results.
