A Form of Chemical Exfoliation
Chemical peels provide the skin with chemical exfoliation by using a combination of acids to dissolve the top layer of the skin. Chemical peels come in different strengths and can be customized based on the patient, their skin type, and their needs. A chemical peel is a treatment that must be performed in an office setting.
It requires the skill, expertise, and knowledge of an aesthetician to ensure the best results. It’s not something that you can or should perform at home, and when you leave it to the hands of professionals like our estheticians, you can expect some incredible results.
What Can They Treat?
Chemical peels are completely customizable, and we can choose the right one for you based on your skin. Depending on the peel, we can use this form of chemical exfoliation to eliminate old, dead skin cells and combat the signs of aging.
Peels can address:
When Will I Notice the Results?
Some patients notice results immediately after their peel; others notice the best results within five to seven days of their appointment.
Will I Peel?
Whether or not your skin peels post-treatment will depend on the peel used during your treatment and your skin condition. Typically, stronger peels result in more peeling but don’t be alarmed if your skin does peel.
Peeling is a completely normal part of the process and is evidence that the treatment process is working and will deliver some incredible results. Peeling will not last more than a few days, and as long as you avoid picking at your skin and moisturizing it as directed, you can ensure beautiful and noticeable results.
How Many Peels Will I Need?
The total number of peels that you will need depends on your skin condition, skin type, and ultimate skincare goals. We will evaluate your skin and your problem areas in person during your consultation and then design a custom treatment plan that includes the total number of peels you should schedule to achieve the best results.
Who Is a Candidate?
The best candidates for a chemical peel are those who want to improve their skin and combat skin imperfections and the more noticeable signs of aging on a deeper level. Pregnant and nursing women are advised to wait until they are no longer pregnant or nursing to schedule this treatment.
