Chemical Peels

After a chemical peel of any depth, the skin will be red, tight, and irritated for the initial 24-72 hours. For superficial to light depth peels, the skin will have mild to moderate flaking with downtime ranging from 5-7 days. For medium depth peels, the skin will experience moderate to advanced peeling with downtime ranging from 7-14 days. This chemical exfoliation is creating an injury to the skin to promote results, so it’s crucial to properly care for the skin during the healing process which includes protecting the skin from any sun exposure, excess heat, exfoliation (this includes retinol, retinoid, and AHA/BHA), makeup application, or excessive sweating. A post treatment skincare kit is included with this service which will include samples of professional grade cleanser, serum, moisturizer, and SPF. Clients will utilize these products for the first 5-7 days post treatment to ensure the skin is receiving the proper nutrients as it heals. Please note, as a new client you must book a facial treatment with us prior to starting a peel series to ensure you are a good candidate for the service and then to properly prepare your skin for the chemical exfoliation. Remember, your skin is an investment! It’s best to use professional grade skincare products in your at-home regimen to achieve and maintain the results of your chemical peel series!
