Frequently Asked Questions
How do chemical peels work?
Chemical peels use acids to remove damaged skin layers, revealing healthier skin underneath and stimulating natural cell turnover for improved texture and appearance.
When can I expect to see results from chemical peels?
Light peels show immediate glow with continued improvement over days. Medium peels reveal results after peeling stops, typically within 7–10 days. Deep peels show dramatic results after 2–3 weeks of healing.
How long do chemical peel results last?
Light peels last 4–6 weeks, medium peels 3–6 months, and deep peels can last several years with proper skincare and sun protection.
Do chemical peels hurt?
Most patients experience mild stinging during application. Light peels feel like a slight sunburn, while deeper peels may cause more discomfort, which is managed with cooling techniques and pain medication if needed.
Will my skin peel after the treatment?
Peeling varies by depth. Light peels may cause minimal flaking, while medium and deep peels result in more significant peeling over several days as part of the healing process.
Is there downtime with chemical peels?
Light peels require no downtime. Medium peels need 5–7 days of healing time. Deep peels require 10–14 days of recovery, accompanied by specific aftercare instructions and social downtime.
What skin concerns can chemical peels address?
Chemical peels effectively treat fine lines, sun damage, age spots, acne, acne scars, uneven skin tone, rough texture, and mild to moderate wrinkles.
How much do chemical peels cost?
Pricing varies by peel type and depth, typically ranging from $100 to $400 per treatment. Your total cost depends on your specific skin needs and treatment goals.
Can I combine chemical peels with different treatments?
Yes. Chemical peels complement microneedling, laser treatments, and professional facials. We’ll create a comprehensive treatment plan based on your skin goals.
Are chemical peels safe?
When performed by licensed medical professionals, chemical peels are very safe. We carefully evaluate your skin type and medical history to select the most appropriate treatment for ideal results.
