chemical peels
Our medical grade chemical peels are an excellent option to reverse your skin's damage caused by sun or aging. These medical-grade peels are best for treating skin imperfections. The peels are useful as they remove dead cells from the skin. The skin is properly cleaned for the procedure, and the solution is evenly applied to the skin. The process does not take more than half an hour, depending upon the type of peel. Sometimes redness and irritation occur post-treatment, which disappears within a week.
What kind of peel do we use?
​
Our medical grade peel contains lactic acid, salicylic acid, and resorcinol and it’s the most effective medical grade peel with no downtime. It's the best peel to achieve picture-perfect skin before special events. The presence of salicylic acid and lactic acid makes this peel effective and popular among brides that require instant glow. Best uses are wide ranging from tightening pores, creating a photo finish look (that’s right you can look like a real life Instagram filter), to treating cystic acne.

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME?There is some downtime depending on how deep you go which can be anywhere from 3 days to a week or two. Usually most people are red for the first few days and then their skin starts to peel in the coming week and then they're healed within a week or two. Sun and heat exposure as well as rubbing the skin are to be avoided otherwise there is no downtime involved with day to day activity/life.
-
HOW MANY SESSIONS DO YOU NEED TO BE EFFECTIVE?Depends on the patient, usually just one to be effective for improving skin tone and tightening pores but more than one is needed for maintenance and if it's for someone with bad acne you may need 3 or more treatments.
-
DOES THE TREATMENT HURT?It does not hurt, there is a tingling and warm heat like sensation involved that goes away in minutes.
-
WHO WOULD NEED THIS? (ANOTHER WAY TO THINK OF IT: WHAT PROBLEMS ARE THEY SUFFERING WITH? WHY WOULD YOU RECOMMEND THIS TREATMENT OVER ANOTHER?)Anyone who is looking to improve their overall skin tone, tighten pores and improve acne. I would recommend it for anyone looking for a cost affective way to improve their skin.

HOW DOES IT WORK? WHAT DOES THE PROCEDURE LOOK LIKE?A peel uses a solution, there are many different brands that basically are used to apply to the skin so that it removes the top layer of the skin in order to produce brighter skin, improve fine lines and wrinkles, improve acne and tighten pores. It is applied to the skin using a medical grade cloth in one or more steps till the desired effect is obtained which depends on the person's skin and what you're treating in order to go through the different layers of the skin.
