CHEMICAL PEELS
Glycolic Acid Peel
Glycolic acid (alphahydroxy acid) is widely used in medical aesthetics for facial peels, and can be found in weaker concentrations in personal skincare products. Our medical-grade skincare products contain stronger concentrations (10% to 30%) of glycolic acid for optimal results. These products have been clinically tested and formulated by pharmaceutical companies to improve the skin tone and texture by exfoliating the dead surface skin cells, smoothing fine lines, and minimizing the appearance of photodamage from sun exposure. Our patients have seen incredible transformations with their skin texture, tone, and clarity after following a consistent skincare routine with medical-grade products.
Our medical-grade glycolic acid peels can use 30% to 70% glycolic acid concentrations to produce rapid and dramatic results. The skin is cleansed with alcohol for optimal acid penetration, then the acid is applied in uniform layers by our licensed estheticians. The concentration used and length of time for acid penetration will be tailored to your personal skin concerns. Depending upon the desired intensity of the peel, the skin may have a dull white appearance for a few minutes after acid application and will then return to its normal color. The skin may be pink overnight and after a few days you may notice light to moderate peeling and flaking. This flaking can be easily managed with moisturizer. Peeling will usually subside within a week and the skin will be smoother and brighter with fewer brown spots and blemishes. The process can be repeated as needed for more dramatic improvement or a stronger acid can be used.

B-LIFTx Peel
The B-LIFTx (BETA-LIFTx) peel features the popular beta hydroxy acid. It takes only a few minutes, and there is no downtime, although your face may temporarily appear a bit pink. In a day or two, your face may begin peeling and flaking. The severity of your peeling will depend upon your skin type and level of sun damage present. B-LIFTx lifts dead, dull skin cells off the surface of your skin and stimulates your skin to bring healthy, young, living cells to the surface. It is well suited for treating acne, acne rosacea, and enlarged pores.
TCA Peel
TCA (trichloroacetic acid) is more intense than other acids, and can produce a deep, effective peel but with additional downtime. The peel is performed in the same way as the other peels but because it requires a more intense acid, your esthetician can apply a topical anesthetic cream before treatment. Your skin will look normal for a day or two, but it will then transition to a light brown color and look like you had a recent sunburn. Over the next several days, peeling will occur, leaving you with beautiful, refreshed skin. Patients notice an improvement in tone, texture, and clarity of their skin after a medical-grade peel!
