Types of Chemical Peels We Offer
1. Light Chemical Peels (Superficial Peels)
A light chemical peel is the mildest option, targeting the outermost layer of the skin. It is perfect for:
- Improving dull skin
- Minimizing mild acne scars
- Enhancing skin glow and hydration
Common Ingredients: Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), glycolic acid, and lactic acid.
Recovery Time: No downtime; you may experience mild redness.
2. Medium Chemical Peels
A medium-depth peel penetrates deeper into the skin, treating more noticeable skin concerns like:
- Sun damage and age spots
- Moderate acne scars
- Uneven skin tone
Common Ingredients: Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and stronger glycolic acid formulations.
Recovery Time: 5 to 7 days; peeling and redness may occur.
3. Deep Chemical Peels
A deep chemical peel is a powerful treatment that targets severe skin imperfections, including:
- Deep wrinkles and fine lines
- Severe sun damage
- Pronounced acne scars
Common Ingredients: Phenol and high-strength TCA.
Recovery Time: 2 to 3 weeks; requires more downtime and aftercare.
