CHEMICAL PEEL BENEFITS:
Fine Lines: Facial peels may drastically reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines and expression lines leaving skin smooth.
Sun Damage: UV rays not only affect our skin in ways we can't see, but they can also leave very visible issues that skin peels help make less noticeable.
Blackheads: Chemical peels can be very effective in removing and minimizing excess, stubborn blackheads by penetrating clogged follicles.
Clogged Pores: Chemical peels effectively remove dead skin that clogs & contributes to large sized pores that turn into blackheads & whiteheads.
Acne Marks: Skin peels can dramatically improve red, pus filled acne blemishes and improve the appearance of mild acne scars.
Age Spots: Various strength skin peels commonly result in a marked improvement of dark skin discoloration commonly referred to as age spots.
Hyperpigmentation: Chemical peels, especially AHA & Vitamin C peels can reduce discoloration, freckles & large dark spots leaving skin radiant.
Uneven Skin: Chemical peels improve overall skin texture and remove debris from the skin's surface resulting in a softer & smoother feel.

AT A GLANCE:
CHEMICAL PEELS BASIC PRECAUTIONS:
• Do not shave or wax the area being treated 2 days prior to the peel
• Do not resume waxing or shaving until shedding has commenced
• Stop using Retin A or similar chemical exfoliators 2 days before peel
• Do not suntan or use tanning beds prior to chemical peel
• Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any medications
YOU SHOULD NOT DO A CHEMICAL PEEL IF:
• You are currently taking Accutane or have done so within the past twelve months
• You are pregnant or nursing
• You have a tendency to form keloid scars
• You have a sexually transmitted disease such as herpes, HIV/AIDS, or a similar condition
• You are undergoing cancer treatments, including chemotherapy and/or radiation
• You expect a miracle. Chemical peels are designed to be a progressive treatment and need multiple applications to achieve a goal
• You have been treated with a hair-removal system in the past two days.
• Skin Allergies
• Sunburn
• Broken Skin/Inflamed Skin
CHEMICAL PEEL PREPARATION:
In order to get the best results and fastest healing time, we recommend using a hyaluronic acid serum and moisturizer containing SPF 30 or higher. In most cases, you will be able to resume your normal daily skin care routine the next day.
REACTIONS TO EXPECT WHEN DOING PEEL:
It is important to remember that a chemical peel is the willful application of an ACID to produce a controlled injury to the skin. By intentionally causing “damage”, you prompt the body into 1) amping up the production of collagen and elastin which form the support system for the epidermis and 2) cause the outermost layers of the epidermis to slough off to reveal newer, fresher skin.
NORMAL REACTIONS AFTER APPLYING A PEEL:
• “Frosting” – the skin turns opaque or powdery white
• Swelling, inflammation, redness, or sensitivity
• Gradual darkening of the skin in the area treated (the skin that will shed)
• Scabbing, crusting, oozing, or flaking

AFTERCARE:
• DO wash twice a day with a gentle cleanser and liberally apply a bland moisturizer after cleansing and throughout the day as needed to prevent dryness and formation of crust (Aquaphor, Cetaphil, CeraVe).
• Do NOT vigorously rub the skin and DO NOT pick at the flaking skin as this may cause scarring.
• Sun protection is critical. You should NOT have any sun exposure; wear a broad spectrum sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 30.
This includes driving to work. Do not use a tanning salon.
• AVOID laser treatments, waxing, the use of depilatories, or microdermabrasion for 3 weeks.
• DO wait 7 days before resuming the use of Retin-a (tretinoin), Renova, Differin, Tazorac, Ziana, Veltin, Atralin, glycolic acids or any other exfoliating agents such as a Clarisonic Brush.
• AVOID swimming, sauna, or whirlpool use for at least 7 days after the peel.
• The procedure may cause swelling, redness, crusting, dryness, skin sensitivity, itching, and peeling of the site which could last for 1-2 weeks. In the days after the peel, the skin may feel and look tight, with parchment-paper like changes or darkening. These are expected reactions.
