Chemical peels are cosmetic treatments that involve applying a chemical solution to the skin to exfoliate and remove the outermost layers. This process reveals smoother, more radiant skin beneath, helping to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. Chemical peels can vary in intensity, from mild to deep, depending on the desired results and skin type.
Chemical peels are ideal for individuals looking to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. You may be a good candidate for a chemical peel if you:
Desire to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and sun damage
Have uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation, or rough skin texture
Want to achieve a brighter, more youthful complexion
Are in good overall health with no active skin infections or conditions
Chemical peels can be tailored to address a variety of skin concerns and are suitable for most skin types and tones.
While chemical peels are generally safe and effective, certain factors may preclude you from undergoing the procedure. You may not be a suitable candidate if you:
Have a history of allergic reactions to chemical peel ingredients
Have active skin infections, such as cold sores or eczema
Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Have recently undergone certain cosmetic procedures, such as laser resurfacing or waxing
Dr. Schwarcz will conduct a thorough evaluation during your consultation to determine if a chemical peel is the right option for you.
Chemical peel treatment is a minimally invasive procedure performed in-office by our skilled medical team. Before the procedure begins, your skin will be cleansed thoroughly to remove any makeup, oil, or debris. Depending on the type and strength of the chemical peel being used, a solution containing alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), or trichloroacetic acid (TCA) will be applied to the skin.
During the application process, you may experience a mild tingling or burning sensation, which is normal and typically subsides quickly. The chemical solution works to exfoliate the outermost layers of the skin, revealing smoother, healthier-looking skin underneath.
Following a chemical peel, you may experience redness, peeling, and mild discomfort in the treated area. These side effects are temporary and usually subside within a few days to a week, depending on the depth of the peel. Dr. Schwarcz will provide you with detailed post-treatment instructions, including skincare recommendations and sun protection guidelines, to optimize your results and minimize the risk of complications.
Most patients can expect to resume their normal activities within a few days following a chemical peel, although it's essential to avoid direct sun exposure and harsh skincare products during the initial healing period. Over the following weeks, you will notice gradual improvements in skin texture, tone, and overall appearance as new, rejuvenated skin emerges.
