Chemical Peels

Even diligent at-home care eventually meets its limit, and congestion and dullness settle in. A professional chemical peel resets the surface: smoother, brighter, clearer skin with no downtime.

A reset for the skin's surface.

Soft, smooth, clear skin is something most of us work at, and home exfoliation only reaches so far. When dullness and congestion take hold anyway, a professional peel delivers the boost in texture and radiance that home care cannot.

Taken regularly, peel treatments help patients maintain smooth, even, youthful-looking skin as an ongoing practice rather than an occasional rescue.

How it works.

A peel applies a balanced blend of alpha and beta hydroxy acids that detaches the surface layer of dead skin cells, taking the dullness with it.

We work with Vi Peel, formulated to diminish discoloration from sun damage, melasma and acne scars, smooth fine lines, refine the appearance of pores, and prevent the formation of acne lesions. Beneath the surface, the peel stimulates the cell renewal process, building the skin's collagen and elastin stores for lasting firmness.

What to expect.

The session itself takes 30 minutes. Some redness follows, and then the peeling begins, running its course over the span of a week as the skin completes its renewal.

An initial series of treatments achieves the long-term improvement; sessions after that are customized to maintain it.

Is it right for you.

If discoloration, acne-prone congestion, fine lines or general dullness describe your skin at the moment, a peel addresses all of them in a single, efficient treatment.

Common questions.

  • Expect some redness, followed by peeling over the span of about a week as the surface layer sheds and the skin renews beneath it.

  • The treatment session takes 30 minutes.

  • Discoloration from sun damage, melasma and acne scars, fine lines, the appearance of pores, and the formation of acne lesions. It also stimulates collagen and elastin production for firmer skin.

  • An initial series achieves the long-term improvement, with maintenance sessions customized afterward to keep it.
