WHAT ARE CHEMICAL PEELS?
Chemical peels come in a variety of treatment strengths: light, medium, deep, and customized combinations. They require little to no downtime and offer impressive beautifying and anti-aging results.
If you are bothered by brown spots, fine lines, wrinkles or other concerns about your complexion, at-home skin treatments and regular facial treatments may not be enough to keep your face looking fresh and radiant. We can help you with a range of chemical peels to help remove dull, dead skin and reveal a younger, brighter skin beneath.

ARE THEY RIGHT FOR ME?
Your skin is the largest organ in your body. It breathes, can let toxins in and out, and can be a great indicator of your overall health. You can give it extra help with a physician supervised plan to help it cleanse, and look it’s best. This is in addition to good skin care practices that you should carry out each day at home.
Other Frequently Asked Questions
How Do Chemical Peels Work?
Chemical peels are used to induce a controlled wound in the skin, removing its superficial layers. This promotes growth for a new healthy layer of skin, improving conditions such as hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and even wrinkles.
How are chemical peels administered?
In most cases, the skin is vigorously cleansed first using a medical degreaser. After that, the appropriate peel is administered.
How long do chemical peels take?
Usually, chemical peels should be completed within a few minutes to about an hour, depending on the size of the area being treated.
How will my skin feel after undergoing chemical peels?
Some redness and itchiness may be felt especially for medium peels, but all of this would depend on your skin type and the type of chemical used. The redness may be present between 10 to 14 days after the treatment.
