Brighten Sun-Damaged, Aging Skin
Chemical peels are advanced skin resurfacing treatments that use carefully formulated acids to exfoliate damaged outer skin layers and stimulate cellular renewal. Depending on the strength and formulation, peels can target acne, pigmentation, fine lines, rough texture, sun damage, and uneven tone. As the skin heals, fresh, healthier cells emerge with improved clarity, smoothness, and radiance. Chemical peels range from light, minimal-downtime treatments to deeper corrective procedures for more significant rejuvenation.
What Do Chemical Peels Treat?
- Acne and post-acne discoloration
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Sun damage and age spots
- Melasma and uneven pigmentation
- Rough, uneven skin texture
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Enlarged or congested pores
- Mild acne scarring
- Uneven skin tone
- Certain precancerous skin changes, like actinic keratoses
What Are the Types of Chemical Peels?
TCA Peel
A trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peel is a medium-depth resurfacing treatment that penetrates beyond the superficial skin layers to improve deeper wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation. TCA stimulates controlled exfoliation and collagen remodeling, revealing smoother, firmer, more even-toned skin as the damaged outer layers gradually peel away.
Jessner Peel
A Jessner peel combines salicylic acid, lactic acid, and resorcinol to exfoliate the skin, reduce oil production, and improve discoloration, acne, and skin texture irregularities. This peel penetrates deeper than many superficial peels while remaining customizable for different skin concerns. It promotes cellular turnover and helps refine congested, uneven, or sun-damaged skin.
Glycolic Acid Peel
A glycolic acid peel uses an alpha-hydroxy acid derived from sugar cane to dissolve dead skin cells and accelerate epidermal renewal. Known for its smaller molecular size, glycolic acid penetrates efficiently to brighten dull skin, soften fine lines, improve mild pigmentation, and smooth uneven texture. These lighter peels often involve minimal downtime.
Salicylic Acid Peel
A salicylic acid peel is a beta-hydroxy acid treatment, particularly effective for oily, acne-prone, and congested skin. Because salicylic acid is oil-soluble, it penetrates into pores to dissolve debris, reduce inflammation, and control excess sebum production. This peel helps improve active breakouts, blackheads, post-inflammatory discoloration, and uneven texture.
What Are the Benefits of Chemical Peels?
- Brightens dull, tired-looking skin
- Improves uneven tone and rough texture
- Softens fine lines and early wrinkles
- Reduces acne breakouts and congestion
- Minimizes post-acne discoloration
- Enhances skin clarity and radiance
- Stimulates collagen production and renewal
- Customizable for different skin concerns and depths
- Helps improve sun damage and pigmentation
- Creates smoother, more refined skin over time
What Is Recovery Like After Chemical Peels?
Your recovery depends on the depth and strength of the peel. Lighter peels may cause mild redness, dryness, tightness, and flaking for a few days, while deeper peels can involve visible peeling, swelling, and sensitivity for one to two weeks. You must avoid sun exposure, exfoliants, and picking at peeling skin during healing. Following your post-treatment skincare instructions carefully helps support optimal healing and more refined, even results.
