Peel Back Dull, Damaged Skin for Gorgeously Glowy Skin
Don’t let your dull, damaged skin define you! Chemical peels provide a safe, effective way to remove the uppermost layers of your skin to reveal gorgeous, silky smooth skin.
Chemical peels are cosmetic treatments used to improve the skin’s appearance, tone, texture, or discoloration through chemical exfoliation to achieve newer, more radiant skin that lasts.
Whether you struggle with wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne, uneven skin, and more, this versatile treatment helps improve your skin’s look and feel to embrace naturally younger-looking skin.
Unlike traditional exfoliants that only remove the dead skin cells on your skin’s surface, chemical peels work deep into the skin to radically improve your skin’s appearance by stimulating cell turnover critical for newer, brighter, more radiant skin underneath.
Chemical peels are a powerful skin-resurfacing treatment that can significantly improve your skin’s texture and appearance in less than a week.
Out with the old and in with new skin to effortlessly embrace softer, smoother, glowing skin that reflects your vibrant spirit.
Versatile Treatment to Correct Your Unique Skin Concerns
Light Chemical Peel
Medium Chemical Peel
A medium chemical peel is a step above a light chemical peel in that it gently removes your epidermis (the uppermost layer of your skin) and the top layer of your dermis (the layer just under your epidermis).
Medium chemical peels can be used to treat more severe skin concerns like wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and acne scars.
Deep Chemical Peel
A deep chemical peel is the strongest of the three chemical peel depths that is used to treat severe skin concerns like deeper wrinkles and scars, or precancerous growths. Deep chemical peels remove the epidermis and the upper and middle layers of your dermis.
The best part about this peel is its results can last up to 10 years. Therefore, you only need to get a deep chemical peel done once to radically improve your skin’s appearance.
That being said, be aware that this chemical peel depth takes the longest to recover from (about 2 weeks).
VI Peel for Melasma Treatment
A VI (Vitality Institute) peel is a medium-depth chemical peel that helps improve your skin’s texture and reverse signs of aging.
VI peels are a popular melasma treatment to help melasma sufferers achieve a clearer, brighter, more even complexion.
VI peels can be done about every 4 to 6 weeks to maintain your desired results.
What to Expect
Your doctor will create a tailored treatment plan according to your unique skincare needs. Based on your skin concerns and their severity will determine what depth of chemical peel may be right for you.
During treatment, your skin will first be cleansed to remove any excess dirt and grim. From there, a chemical serum will be applied to the skin for several minutes, giving it time to absorb and soak into the skin. Then, a neutralizing agent will be applied to remove the chemical serum. Depending on your chemical peel, your skin will then be gently moisturized to add hydration back into the skin.
Expect your chemical peel to take about 30 to 60 minutes. Recovery time will vary depending on the type of chemical peel you get. Your skin will likely feel red and tight immediately following treatment, and you should experience peeling of your skin for about 3 to 5 days post-treatment.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Depending on the type of chemical peel you get will determine how long your results last. For superficial (light) chemical peels, it is recommended to get one done every month to maintain your desired results. However, deep chemical peels are stronger and only need to be done once due to their strength. Deep chemical results can last up to 10 years.
Peeling will vary on a patient-by-patient basis. Just because your skin didn’t experience an extensive amount of peeling doesn’t mean the treatment didn’t work. The amount of peeling you experience varies based on the depth of your peel and your specific skin condition.
