What to Expect?
Chemical peels are designed to exfoliate the skin and accelerate cell turnover, improving tone, texture, and overall clarity. The treatment is customized based on your skin type and concerns, with varying strengths ranging from light to deeper peels. It is performed in-office and typically takes less than an hour, depending on the level of treatment.
Following the peel, you may experience redness, dryness, and peeling as the skin renews itself. The intensity and duration of this process will vary based on the depth of the peel. As the skin heals, you’ll notice a smoother, brighter complexion, and your provider will guide you on how to care for your skin to maintain your results.
Recovery Time
Healing after a chemical peel varies depending on the depth of the treatment, with light peels requiring little downtime and deeper peels involving several days of visible peeling. In the first few days, you may experience redness, dryness, and flaking as the skin begins to renew itself. This is a normal part of the process that reveals a smoother, more refreshed complexion.
As your skin heals, it’s important to keep it well-hydrated and protected, especially from sun exposure. You’ll be advised to use gentle skincare and avoid picking or peeling the skin. Your provider will give you detailed aftercare instructions to support proper healing and enhance your results.
