A chemical peel is a skin resurfacing treatment that uses a specialized solution to exfoliate the outer layers of your skin. They can help to remove dead skin cells and reveal a more fresh, radiant layer underneath. The peel stimulates the skin’s natural healing processes, encouraging the growth of newer, healthier skin. We often use chemical peels to target issues like fine lines, uneven pigmentation, and acne scars, along with many other concerns. We tailor the chemical peel to your specific skin type and concerns, ensuring you get the best results with as little discomfort as possible. For even more targeted resurfacing, some clients also explore microneedling as a complementary option.

Your recovery time varies depending on the type and depth of peel you choose. We can help you choose which peel is best for you based on your individual skin type and goals. Light peels usually involve minimal downtime, with mild redness and peeling lasting only a few days. Medium peels might require around a week for your skin to fully heal, with redness and peeling lasting a bit longer. Deep peels can involve more significant downtime, with recovery taking several weeks. Between peels, many patients opt for customized facials to maintain their glow and support healing.

Chemical peels can be an effective option for improving the appearance of acne scars. They exfoliate your skin’s surface to promote the renewal of your cells. We can choose a peel that reaches deep enough within your skin to encourage the reduction of old, damaged skin, such as acne scarring. We also may suggest combining your chemical peel with additional treatments to enhance your results. While we typically can’t perform them on the same day, they can be beneficial once your skin heals. Treatments like PRP injections or the MOXI BBL Laser may be ideal follow-ups depending on your skin’s needs.
