Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is a deep exfoliation of the top layer (epidermis) of the skin. It consists of using several types of acids to lift away dead skin cells, refine skin texture and treat a variety of skin conditions. It gives the skin a fresh, refined look. Chemical peels are useful for treating acne scars and pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, blackheads, texture, and enlarged pores.

Individual results may vary.

What system do we use: SkinCeuticals

Contraindication/Risks Chemical peels are not for everyone. Please book a consultation with our clinicians for guidance on what treatment is right for you. Chemical peels are not recommended for individuals using Accutane, Retinoids, or any medications that may compromise and thin out the skin. It is also not recommended for anyone who is pregnant, has severe sensitive skin, rosacea, or active acne lesions.

Aftercare

During your chemical peel, you may experience a tingling sensation and your skin may feel warm. This is completely normal and to be expected. You may notice some redness and feel as though you have a mild sunburn after your first superficial peel. Deeper peels may cause moderate to severe redness, potential swelling, and peeling of the skin for 7-14 days (about 2 weeks). Your clinician will decide on the best type of peel for your skin and will guide you on how to take care of your skin after treatment. To maintain and prolong the results of a chemical peel it is important to follow the correct aftercare routine, complete with antioxidants, proper hydration, and SPF.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What does the injection feel like?

Several clients state that the treatment is “pain free” while others experience only minimal discomfort. During the treatment we use an exceptionally fine needle to inject the area where you want to erase wrinkles and fine lines. Depending on the depth of the lines multiple injections may be needed. Client may experience a small pin-prink during the treatment. Best of all, the injections are quick and convenient.

What is the downtime/recovery time?

No, downtime/recovery time. You can return to regular activities at once after treatment. You can drive to and from your appointment. Treatment is safe, easy, and takes no more than a few minutes of injections.

What results can I expect?

Normally, clients will notice the effects of the treatment within a few days. You will see a visible improvement after two weeks.

How long will the benefits last?

For most of our clients, the antiaging benefits of treatment last between 3 to 4 months then gradually begin to fade. With repeated treatment your results may last longer.

NOTE: Only licensed professionals with the knowledge and skill needed to achieve the best results should administer botulinum toxin (BOTOX) treatments.
