30% TCA chemical peel

OVERVIEW

Our peels are customized to your specific skin type and condition. Chemical Peels remove the top layers of skin to even skin tones and for a healthier, refreshed appearance. The peels range from an AHA superficial peel to a multiple acid Deep peel. 

How to prepare

We request that you arrive with a clean, make-up free face

​

Drink plenty of water to help your skin recover.

​

Avoid excess sun exposure a week before your appointment. Sun damage could compromise your skin and make the treatment painful.

​

Do not use Retin-A/Retinol 7 days prior to treatment as this can thin your skin and compromise your treatment.

​

Consult with your medical provider regarding pretreatment with an antiviral if you have a history of cold sores

​

Treatment is not recommended if you have been on Accutane within the last 6 months. 

​

If you are currently pregnant or nursing, you are not a suitable candidate for a chemical peel.

​

What to expect during treatment

Most people feel a burning sensation for the first few minutes of the procedure, followed by a stinging sensation as the acid exfoliates and clears away the top layers of your skin

​

This peel usually lasts between 30 minutes to an hour.

​

Multiple sessions may be required to achieve the desired look. Please allow several months in between sessions to give your skin time to full heal
