Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are cosmetic treatments designed to exfoliate the skin and promote cell turnover, resulting in smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin. By applying a chemical solution to the skin, these treatments help improve various skin concerns, from fine lines and wrinkles to acne scars and uneven skin tone. Discover how chemical peels can rejuvenate your complexion and enhance your natural beauty.

 

How chemical peels work

Preparation: The skin is cleansed thoroughly to remove any oils or impurities.

Application: A chemical solution is applied to the skin, which can include alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), or trichloroacetic acid (TCA), depending on the peel depth and desired outcome.

Exfoliation: The chemical solution causes controlled exfoliation of the outer layers of the skin, revealing smoother, fresh skin underneath.

Stimulation: Stimulates collagen production and promotes cell renewal for improved skin texture and tone.

Type of peels

  • Superficial Peels: Mild peels that exfoliate the outer layer of the skin (epidermis), such as glycolic acid or salicylic acid peels.

  • Medium Peels: Penetrate deeper into the skin (up to the middle layer, dermis), suitable for more significant skin rejuvenation, using TCA or Jessner’s solution.

  • Deep Peels: Strong peels that penetrate the deepest layers of the skin, typically using phenol. These are reserved for more severe skin concerns and require longer recovery times.

  • Customizable: Various strengths and formulations available to tailor treatment to individual skin types and concerns.
  • Quick Procedure: Typically performed in-office with minimal downtime, depending on peel depth.
