What to expect
One of the key benefits of a chemical peel is its customizable nature—whether you need a light refresh or a deeper exfoliation, the treatment can be tailored to your skin's specific needs. With minimal downtime and a quick, 15 to 30 minute appointment, a chemical peel is a convenient option for anyone looking to improve their skin's texture and appearance. Best of all, you'll start to see noticeable results within just a few days, leaving you with rejuvenated, glowing skin.
At the time of your appointment, your skin will be cleansed. Depending on the type of peel you are having, you may experience some mild stinging or burning. Your skin may appear slightly pink and it is possible to see white frost on the skin. This will dissipate over the next few hours. If you had a stronger peel, the pinkness may persist for a few days. Prior to leaving the office a sunscreen may be applied to your face.
We prioritize your care throughout the entire process, providing thorough follow-up and aftercare to ensure you’re informed and comfortable every step of the way. With convenient scheduling options, Spa 43 makes it easy to prioritize your skin’s health and radiance.
While most all skin types can be treated with chemical peels, we take special care to ensure this treatment is also safe for darker skin. It is an effective treatment for a variety of skin concerns, including smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, treating acne, brown spots and pores. If you are hoping for a youthful, healthy, and radiant appearance, a chemical peel is for you.
Stop all topical treatments three days prior to your appointment – this includes prescriptions, topical medications, such as Differin, Tazorac, bleaching creams and retinols.
Your skin might be sensitive after your chemical peel.
You should avoid waxing and exfoliating for one week prior to your chemical peel.
Gently wash your face with a mild soap and use a gentle moisturizer both morning and night for the first 3 days after your peel. Once your skin begins to peel, avoid picking at the flaking skin (this can cause hyperpigmentation). Your skin may be sensitive after your chemical peel. Avoid sun exposure for the first week and it is necessary to be diligent about wearing sunscreen daily to protect your skin.
Chemical peels can be done every 3 to 4 weeks, depending on your individual needs and skincare goals. For best results, chemical peels should be done in a series. Talk with your esthetician about the proper skincare regimen to ensure you are optimizing the benefits of your chemical peels and overall health of your skin.
