Types of Chemical Peels
Chemical peels use a range of different acids to remove layers of skin. The strength of the peel precisely controls the number of layers removed. We will choose a formula that targets your skin concerns and fits your lifestyle.
Light or Superficial Peel
A light chemical peel removes layers of the epidermis. It can brighten your skin, improve texture, unclog pores, and help manage acne. This type of peel works gently enough that even people new to peels or with sensitive skin can enjoy the benefits.
Medium Peel
If you want to treat moderate sun damage, hyperpigmentation, or acne scarring, you may have a medium peel. This kind of peel works into the outer layers of the dermis. It can even target fine lines and wrinkles. Recovery may involve redness and flaking.
Deep Peel
This phenol peel works deep into the dermis. It can treat concerns like deep lines and wrinkles, acne scars, severe sun damage, and age spots. You can expect some recovery time with this intensive peel, but most people find that skin looks dramatically younger and smoother.
