No. These are all superficial peels and should be painless. The most patients may experience would be mild tingling.

These peels can treat a variety of skin concerns depending on the peel. They can address dehydrated skin, dull skin, oily and acne-prone skin, sensitive skin and more. They are safe for all skin types.

Patients may experience mild redness following any of these peels, but it usually resolves within an hour after treatment.

Whether you’re an existing patient, or new to the practice, we always have you meet with one of our Medical Aestheticians for a complimentary consultation before your peel appointment to determine which one is best suited for your skin and goals. Depending on your skin, we may recommend combining chemical peels along with other treatments for optimal results.

No. You can resume normal activity after your peel, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for 2-3 days to prevent irritation or PIH (post inflammatory hyperpigmentation).

You want to use a gentle, soap free cleanser, and avoid cleansing brushes or washcloths for the first week. We recommend using Obagi Gentle Cleanser. You should use a moisturizer twice a day, or as often as needed to prevent itching. We recommend iS Clinical Sheald Balm or Obagi Hydrate as they’re both great post-procedure moisturizers. You must wear sunscreen daily (SPF 30 or higher) and should avoid prolonged sun exposure for at least 1-week post-peel.
