What Is a Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a professional skin-resurfacing treatment designed to improve your skin’s texture and appearance. During the procedure, a specialized chemical solution is applied to the skin, causing it to exfoliate and eventually peel off. This process removes damaged outer layers and stimulates the growth of new, healthy skin cells. The result is a smoother, more radiant complexion with reduced fine lines, sun damage, and other imperfections.

Types of Chemical Peels We Offer

To ensure optimal results, we offer a range of professional-grade peels tailored to your specific needs.

Illuminize Peel® (Light Peel)

This is our gentlest peel, perfect for first-time patients or those seeking a quick skin refresh with minimal downtime. The Illuminize Peel brightens your skin’s overall appearance, delivering a vibrant, radiant look after just one treatment and helping address mild skin imperfections.

Vitalize Peel® (Medium Peel)

Designed to address mild-to-moderate skin imperfections, the Vitalize Peel helps smooth the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and roughness. You will see noticeable results after just one peel, with compelling improvements after a series of three to six treatments.

Rejuvenize Peel® (Deep Peel)

Our most robust peel, the Rejuvenize Peel, is appropriate for moderate-to-severe skin imperfections. It effectively targets stubborn concerns, such as sun damage, melasma, and age spots, while smoothing fine lines and wrinkles for a more uniform complexion. Noticeable results appear after one treatment, with significant results after three to six treatments.
Your Chemical Peel Consultation

Your journey begins with a private consultation with one of our skilled aestheticians. During this session, we will carefully assess your skin type, discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals, and review your medical history. This allows us to determine the most appropriate type and strength of chemical peel to safely and effectively deliver the results you desire. We will explain the procedure, what to expect during recovery, and answer any questions you may have.

The Chemical Peel Procedure

1. Skin Preparation
The treatment begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin to remove any oils, makeup, or debris. This ensures the chemical solution can penetrate the skin evenly and effectively.
Your aesthetician will carefully apply the selected chemical solution to the target area. It is common to feel a mild tingling or warming sensation as the peel begins to work on the outer layers of your skin.
The solution will remain on your skin for a specific amount of time before it is washed off and a neutralizing agent is applied to stop the exfoliation process. Finally, a calming ointment may be applied to soothe the treated skin.

What to Expect After Your Chemical Peel

Your recovery experience will depend on the depth of your peel. Light peels typically involve minimal downtime, with possible mild redness for a few hours. Medium and deep peels will result in noticeable skin peeling for approximately 3-10 days as the damaged outer layers slough off. Our medical aesthetician will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions, including how to care for your skin and the critical importance of using sunscreen to protect your beautiful results.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Chemical Peel?

Ideal candidates for a chemical peel are in good overall health and wish to improve mild to moderate skin imperfections. Candidates should have realistic expectations for their results and be committed to following all post-treatment care instructions. Please inform our team if you have a history of severe acne, eczema, or cold sores, as this may affect your treatment plan. We also advise patients who have recently used Accutane to wait before undergoing a chemical peel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What level should I choose for my chemical peel?

The best chemical peel for you will depend on your skin concerns and cosmetic goals. During your initial consultation, we will help you choose the right peel for your skin. We consider your skin type, the depth of treatment needed, your available recovery time, and your desired outcome. It is often best to start with a lighter peel and assess the results before deciding if a deeper peel is necessary.

Both chemical peels and dermabrasion are exfoliating treatments that improve skin texture. The main difference is the method: dermabrasion uses a surgical instrument to physically abrade the skin’s surface, while a chemical peel uses a specialized solution to dissolve dead skin cells. During your consultation, we will discuss the advantages of each and help you decide which treatment best aligns with your goals.
You may experience some discomfort during the application, depending on the peel’s strength. A light peel might cause a temporary stinging sensation. Medium and deep peels can be more uncomfortable, but we can use a numbing cream or other measures to ensure your comfort throughout the treatment.
Yes, a chemical peel can be an excellent part of a comprehensive treatment plan. During your consultation, we can discuss combining your peel with other services, such as injectable treatments like BOTOX® or JUVÉDERM®, to achieve more dramatic and comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
