Chemical Peels
Medical grade chemical peels provide a safe way to improve and smooth the texture and appearance of the skin.
Every day our skin is exposed to the environment and behavioral choices that lead to an increased production of harmful free radicals. These free radicals cause the destruction of cellular components that help maintain healthy, radiant skin. With unhealthy habits, such as sun exposure, our skin accelerates the physiological process of aging.
Skin changes, such as fine lines, hyperpigmenation and the lack of a radiant glow can also be due to genetics and hormones.
Chemical peels deliver controlled injury at the cutaneous level of the skin, determined by the nature of the acid applied. These acids work to target specific concerns providing maximal results while creating simply beautiful skin. Chemical peels are designed for dark spots, photodamaged, acne- or redness- prone skin.
A chemical peel, or chemoexfoliation, is a procedure used to improve specific skin conditions through controlled stratum corneum resurfacing. The acids work in two phases: removal of damaged cells and replacement of new, healthy cells.
Chemoexfoliation assists with regenerating new epidermal cells and improves the appearance of the skin. Our custom chemical peels reduce irritation and provide longer lasting, visible results for the face, back, hands, neck, chest, and delicate areas around the eyes and lips.
The procedure takes about 15-20 minutes. Peels range from superficial to deep with various levels of downtime ranging from 0-7 days after the procedure. A series of peels is always recommended to see the best results
