It’s important to maintain the health of our skin, and there are many unique treatments that can help you do that based on your skin concerns. Chemical peels are one of the most effective skincare treatments but it’s important to have an experienced medical professional perform these to ensure a safe and effective treatment.
During the treatment, the safe, FDA-approved solution is applied to the desired areas of skin. Depending on the specific peel solution and application method you may see layers of your skin to exfoliate and peel off after a few days. In other cases, you won’t see any visible peeling. Either way, the chemical peel will reveal a fresh and youthful new layer of skin.
Chemical Peels are effective at correcting the following skin issues on the face, neck, and hands:
A chemical peel is considered a resurfacing treatment, and there are different depths from superficial to deep. A deep chemical peel will offer more dramatic results, but it takes a lot more time to recover from and will feel like more of an invasive treatment compared to a superficial or medium-depth peel.
Here, we typically perform chemical peels at the superficial and medium depths. In our experience, we prefer the added precision of laser technology for people who may have considered deeper chemical peels in the past. Performing a chemical peel on a patient is an art and has to be personalized to each individual.
Following the treatment, it’s imperative that sun exposure is limited as your skin will be sensitive to UV rays. Applying sunscreen and moisturizer will be recommended post-treatment.
A chemical peel is a treatment option that needs to be planned and well thought out. Since there is some downtime involved, it’s important to plan these when you do not have important social events for 1-2 weeks after.
Our team has extensive experience treating patients with chemical peels and will be happy to walk you through the process during your initial consultation. Rest assured, the right treatment option will be selected for your particular concerns.
“Our practice philosophy is simple — to deliver the very best care we can in the very best way we can. To us, that means we make each and every patient feel welcomed from the moment that they walk in the door until they leave the office. It means that we listen to what the patient has to say and address those concerns. It means we give advice and recommend treatments based on our extensive training with leaders in the field, our wealth of personal experience, and our commitment to excellence. For our cosmetic patients, it means working with the patient to achieve results that look natural, not overdone or exaggerated. It means that we always strive to do the right thing for the patient, as we value very highly ethics, honesty, and integrity. It means we stand behind what we do and will do everything in our power to get the best results we can for the patient. It means we carefully select the highest quality staff to represent us and help us carry out these goals. Lastly and most importantly, it means that we treat the patient the way we would want ourselves to be treated, with respect and kindness. Because at the end of the day, without all of our loyal patients, we wouldn’t have a practice.”
