Chemical Peels
Chemical skin peeling involves an application of a mild fruit acid (glycolic acid) to sun-damaged, unevenly pigmented, and finely wrinkled facial areas. It also works well to de-oil the skin and help acne improve rapidly. The procedure painlessly removes the skin’s top layers, revealing the healthier skin below.
We use only Neostrata brand chemical peel solutions. We will choose the strength that is best for you (20-70% is available). After cleansing your face, we use a fine brush to apply the medicine to to the areas to the entire face. There is a mild tingling feeling that lasts about 3-5 minutes. We then apply a neutralizing solution and a pleasant facial mask. The whole procedure takes less than 10 minutes!
You will leave the clinic with minimal redness which can be covered with some powder immediately. Over the next few days you may see some dryness or light flaking of the skin. You may use makeup or just moisturize a little. Make sure you stay out of the sun.
For best results, repeat the peel in two or three weeks. By doing a series, we target many layers of the skin and achieve a radiant, clear complexion!
