Chemical Peel
At our aesthetic clinic, we offer chemical peel treatments, a way to improve the appearance and texture of your skin. Chemical peels work by removing the outer layer of skin, revealing fresh, new skin underneath. The treatment can be customized to address a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne, sun damage, and more.
What is
Chemical Peel
A chemical peel is a cosmetic treatment that uses a chemical solution to exfoliate the skin and reveal fresh, new skin underneath. The solution is applied to the skin and allowed to sit for a few minutes before being washed off. As the solution is washed off, it takes the outer layer of skin with it, revealing smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin.
There are several types of chemical peels available, ranging from mild to deep. Mild peels are generally well-tolerated and require little to no downtime, while deep peels may require several days of recovery time.
How it works
Chemical Peel
Chemical peels work by removing the outer layer of skin, which is composed of dead skin cells, dirt, oil, and other debris. By removing this layer, chemical peels can help to improve the appearance and texture of your skin, as well as reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne, and other skin concerns.
Chemical peels can be customized to meet the unique needs of each patient. We offer a variety of chemical peel solutions, ranging from mild to deep, to help our patients achieve their desired results.
Frequently Asked Questions
Chemical peels are generally safe for all skin types and can be an effective treatment for a variety of skin concerns.

During a chemical peel treatment, a solution will be applied to your skin and allowed to sit for a few minutes. You may feel a slight stinging or burning sensation during the treatment, but this should subside quickly. After the solution is washed off, your skin may appear red or slightly swollen, but this is normal and should resolve within a few hours.
The results of a chemical peel can vary depending on the type of peel and the patient’s specific needs. Many patients begin to see improvement in their skin’s texture and appearance within a few days to a week after the treatment.

In rare cases, patients may experience more serious side effects, such as scarring or changes in skin color, but these are typically temporary and resolve on their own. We will discuss any potential risks and side effects with you before your treatment.
