What to Expect During Your Chemical Peel Treatment

Prepare for your skin’s renewal with complete confidence. Review the following steps to understand the process, benefits, and necessary aftercare for optimal clinical results.

How does it work?

A chemical peel involves the application of a specialized, medical-grade acid solution (such as Glycolic, Salicylic, Lactic, or TCA) to the skin’s surface. This solution carefully dissolves the bonds holding dead skin cells together, prompting the outermost layers to safely peel away. This controlled exfoliation reveals the fresh, undamaged, and radiant skin underneath.

Before the treatment

To ensure optimal efficacy and minimize potential irritation, you must discontinue the use of prescription retinoids, high-strength chemical exfoliants (AHAs/BHAs), and physical scrubs for at least 5 to 7 days prior to your appointment. Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds. Please arrive with a clean face, free of makeup.

During the treatment

Your practitioner will meticulously double-cleanse and prep your skin to remove all surface oils. The customized chemical solution is then applied evenly across the treatment area. You may experience a mild to moderate tingling, stinging, or warming sensation as the peel activates. Depending on the peel’s depth, it is left on for a precise amount of time before being carefully neutralized and removed. The session concludes with the application of soothing, hydrating serums and a high-level SPF.

What results can I expect to see and how many do I need?

Superficial peels provide an immediate brightening effect with minimal downtime. For more significant concerns such as deep acne scarring or pronounced hyperpigmentation, a medium-depth peel or a series of 3 to 6 superficial peels spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart is highly recommended to achieve sustained, corrective results.

Treatment overview

PROCEDURE TIME: 30 to 45 minutes.

DOWNTIME: Varies by peel depth. Superficial peels require 0 to 2 days of mild flaking. Medium peels may induce 3 to 7 days of visible peeling and redness.

DURATION OF RESULTS: Long-term, provided you maintain a diligent skincare regimen and strict sun protection.

Frequently Asked Questions About Chemical Peels

Are chemical peels safe for all skin types?

Yes, when administered by a trained clinical professional. We utilize a wide variety of acid profiles, ensuring we can safely treat all Fitzpatrick skin types without risking post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Does the peeling process hurt?

The sensation varies depending on the strength of the peel. Superficial peels cause only a mild, temporary tingling. Deeper peels may cause a more intense warming or stinging sensation during application, which typically subsides quickly once the solution is neutralized.

Can I wear makeup after a chemical peel?

We advise against applying makeup for at least 24 to 48 hours following the procedure to prevent bacteria from entering the freshly exfoliated skin. Once the skin begins to actively peel, applying makeup can also accentuate the flaking.

How should I care for my skin post-treatment?

Hydration and protection are paramount. Use a gentle, non-foaming cleanser and apply a rich, unscented moisturizer frequently. You must absolutely avoid pulling, picking, or physically scrubbing the flaking skin, as this can lead to severe scarring. A broad-spectrum SPF 50 is mandatory every day.

Can a chemical peel effectively treat acne?

Yes. Specifically, peels formulated with Salicylic Acid (a BHA) are oil-soluble, allowing them to penetrate deep into the pores to clear out cellular debris, reduce excess sebum, and effectively disable acne-causing bacteria.
