Peels

Chemical peels involve applying a chemical solution to the skin, which removes dead skin cells and stimulates the growth of new cells, resulting in improved skin texture and appearance. It is commonly used to address fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation (i.e., sun damage, age spots, acne scars).

From superficial to deep peels, there are different types of chemical peels that vary in strength. Superficial peels are gentle and typically require little to no downtime, while deeper peels can be more effective for treating wrinkles, scars, and uneven pigmentation but may involve a longer recovery period. We offer superficial-deeper depth peels at our MedSpa.

The primary advantage of chemical peels is their ability to exfoliate the outer layers of the skin, removing dead cells and stimulating the production of new, healthier skin.

Chemical peels are versatile and can be used on multiple areas of the body, including the face, neck, chest, and hands. Overall, chemical peels help to rejuvenate the skin, enhance radiance, and promote a more even and youthful complexion.

Before undergoing a chemical peel, a consultation with a qualified practitioner is essential to assess your skin type and concerns to determine the most appropriate peel for your goals. They will also provide instruction for pre-treatment preparation and post-treatment care to ensure optimal results and minimize risks.

For superficial peels, patients might experience mild redness and slight peeling for a few days, with minimal downtime. Medium-deeper depth peels often result in more noticeable redness, swelling, and peeling, which can last for about a week.

During this time, the skin may feel tight and sensitive, and it is crucial to avoid sun exposure, use gentle skincare products, and keep the skin well-moisturized. In all cases, adherence to post-procedure care instructions is essential for optimal healing and achieving the best results. We will help guide you through this process to help make your recovery smooth.
