Chemical Peels

Chemical peel treatments add a healthy glow and even out skin tone.

Throughout your life, different environmental and genetic factors can impact the health of your skin. The aging process and prolonged sun exposure can create skin issues such as sun damage, pigmentation issues, lines and wrinkles, acne, and acne scarring. The chemical peel services offered at Laser MD Medspa can address many of these skin concerns, leaving you with smoother and healthier-looking skin while improving skin texture and elasticity by stimulating collagen production.

If you’re looking to avoid invasive surgery and still achieve quality skin rejuvenation, a chemical peel can be an excellent alternative. With this treatment, you can improve your skin’s appearance, helping it look smoother and more refreshed. Chemical peels can effectively reduce the appearance of acne, sun damage, and other surface-level skin imperfections, giving your skin a more youthful glow.

Chemical Peel Testimonials

“I love Laser MD. I went for a couple services, Juvéderm & chemical peels. They went great, and I have also had some consultations about other services. Staff seems knowledgeable, I feel comfortable and the offices are very clean. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!”

How Do Chemical Peels Work?

The chemical peel process involves applying a specially formulated solution of chemicals to the skin. This solution creates a controlled removal of the injured skin cells of the superficial skin layers, allowing them to naturally shed. As the old skin cells slough away, newer and healthier cells take their place, leading to a rejuvenated appearance that is smoother and more radiant.

The Different Types of Chemical Peels

There are various types of chemical peels, each designed to target different skin concerns. They fall into three general categories:

Light Chemical Peels

These peels, also known as superficial peels, focus on the skin’s surface. They help reduce fine lines, acne, uneven tone, and dryness. Recovery time is typically one to seven days.

Medium Chemical Peels

Medium peels penetrate deeper into the skin and address more significant concerns such as wrinkles, discoloration, and rough patches. The healing process takes around seven to 14 days.

Deep Chemical Peels

This is the most intensive peel, reaching deep into the skin to treat prominent wrinkles, scars, and age spots. A deep peel requires a recovery period of about two weeks and can only be performed once due to its strength.

What to Expect After a Chemical Peel

The results and side effects of chemical peels vary depending on the type of peel. Following a light peel, you may experience redness, dryness, and mild irritation, which can be soothed with topical treatments. Medium peels may cause redness, swelling, and tightness, along with some crusting as the skin heals. Over-the-counter medication can help manage any discomfort. Deep peels involve more significant redness and swelling, and the skin will need to be dressed. Pain medication may be necessary to alleviate the burning or throbbing sensation some clients experience.
