Our Legendary Chemical Peels.

Chemical peels are treatments that use a blend of acids to exfoliate and remove the top layers of dead skin. This process stimulates the growth of new, healthy skin cells and improves skin texture, reducing the appearance of acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines. 

Yes, chemical peels can be highly effective in treating acne scars, particularly mild to moderate scarring. 

Peels with ingredients like salicylic acid or glycolic acid exfoliate the skin and promote collagen production, which helps smooth out scars over time. Our signature deep chemical peel will deliver the most dramatic results.

A salicylic acid peel is a chemical peel that contains salicylic acid, a beta-hydroxy acid known for its ability to penetrate oily skin and unclog pores. It’s particularly beneficial for those with acne-prone skin as it reduces inflammation, clears breakouts, and minimizes the appearance of pores. 

Yes, chemical peels are commonly used to treat hyperpigmentation, including sunspots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation from acne. However, the depth of the peel must be considered on deeper skin tones. Deep peels on deep skintones can cause pigmentation issues.

Deep-strength peels like those containing trichloroacetic acid (TCA) can help lighten dark spots and even out skin tone. Other peels are designed with acids specifically for treating hyperpigmentation.

The number of treatments required depends on the severity of the acne scars. Our deep peel can be carried out a maximum of every 2 months, but a single session will usually deliver dramatic and suficcient results. 

Your practitioner will assess your skin's condition to develop a customized treatment plan. One deep peel a year is enough. 

During a chemical peel, a solution is applied to the skin to exfoliate and remove the top layers. You may feel a slight tingling or warmth on your skin. The procedure is relatively quick, often taking around 30 minutes. 

For stronger peels, a pharmacy-grade numbing cream may be applied beforehand for comfort. Comfort is always a priority in our clinic, and we take pain management seriously.

Downtime varies depending on the strength of the peel. Light peels have minimal downtime, with some redness and peeling for a few days. Medium-strength peels may result in more noticeable peeling and redness for up to a week. It’s important to follow aftercare instructions to protect the skin during the recovery period. 

Chemical peels are suitable for individuals looking to address issues like acne scars, hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, fine lines, and texture irregularities. 

However, those with active skin infections, severe rosacea, or very sensitive skin may need to consult with a professional to determine the best treatment. 

Yes, chemical peels are often combined with other treatments, such as microneedling or subcision, to enhance results for acne scarring. Combining treatments helps to address different layers of the skin, promoting more comprehensive skin rejuvenation. 

We achieve fantastic, life-changing, long lasting results from these kind of treatment plans.

Your skin will continue to dramatically improve for weeks after a peel, especially a deep peel. Even 2-3 months afterwards, you'll continue to see fantastic, glowing improvements.

The results from a deep peel can last a year or more. Regular maintenance treatments and a proper skincare routine can help prolong the benefits of the peel. We love a single deep peel a year as part of most of our clients maintenance plans, skin-tone depending.
