Chemical Peels

Chemical Peel Offerings

Superficial Peel

This type of peel uses a solution composed of a mild acid like Alpha-hydroxy acid, lactic acid, beta hydroxy acid or salicylic acid. These solutions will only penetrate and exfoliate the outermost layer of the skin. A superficial chemical peel is best used to refresh the skin and improve very mild discoloration, roughness of the skin, fine lines and sun damage. It can be used to improve all areas of the face and body. This type of peel is sometimes referred to as the “lunchtime peel” as there is no downtime. Following the chemical peel, your skin will have a light pink color followed by light flaking and peeling. This type of peel can be repeated as a series in frequent intervals until you achieve your desired results.

Gel Peel SM

Combines salicylic and mandelic acids to manage problematic skin and promote exfoliation. Perfect for combination, oily, acneic, aging skin types to treat pore congestion, wrinkles, and other signs of aging.

Gel Peel GL

Combines glycolic and lactic acids to exfoliate surface cells and hydrate the skin. Ideal for all skin types and revitalizes the appearance of aging photodamaged skin.

Medium Peel

This type of peel uses solutions with glycolic or TCA (trichloroacetic acid). These solutions will penetrate both the outer (epidermis) and middle layers (dermis) of the skin. These are best used to smooth rough skin, remove actinic keratosis/precancerous growths, improve age spots and discoloration while reducing moderate lines and wrinkles. After a medium depth peel, the skin will appear deep pink for a few days to a week and result in overall peeling of the skin. These results are more noticeable than that of a mild peel and you may want to plan this treatment during a time you can stay at home for a few days as you heal. This peel may be repeated every few months to maintain your glowing skin.

BHA peel to promote skin’s renewal process to aid in reducing acne, rough texture, blotchiness, and uneven skin tone from post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. This peel is ideal for combination, oily, and acneic skin types.

Deep Peel

This type of peel uses the chemical phenol. This solutions penetrate the lower dermal or deep layers of the skin. This peel can dramatically improve the skin’s appearance by decreasing moderate wrinkles, age spots and mild scarring. A deep peel usually requires a local anesthetic and mild sedative. They are only used to treat the tissue on the face and typically only done once with results lasting up to ten years. Deep chemical peels result in skin redness, crusting, peeling and discomfort for up to 2 weeks. They often require some type of pain medication to control your discomfort post treatment.
