Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are used to treat imperfections of the skin that are associated with a variety of conditons including acne, hyperpigmentation (darkening), aging, uneven skin tone and other problems. Chemical peels can help to refine, and rejuvenate the skin, giving a healthy glow, improved texture, even tone and more youthful appearance to the skin.
 
Peels come in a variety of compositions and strengths and are chosen based on individual needs and skin types. During your consultation, the doctor will evaluate the condition of your skin , your medical history and goals and choose a peel best suited for you.
 
Most peels do not create open areas on the skin and cause little more than temporary burning and redness. You may also not see active peeling. This does not mean the peel is not working. The effect of the peel becomes evident over months and is a process that involves intermittent professional in-office peeling and a maintenance program to attain the best results.
