TOOLS & PROCEDURES

Skin Peels

Many skin imperfections are the result of sun damage, acne, ageing or a build up of dead skin cells that clog the pores making the skin appear dull, wrinkled, spotty, scarred and/or patchy.

 

A chemical peel can dramatically improve the appearance of the skin on the face, hands, neck and decolletage. A skin peel leaves your skin looking smoother, healthier, plumper and tighter.

 

Conditions improved with skin peels include:

 

  • Acne

  • Post acne scarring

  • Rough patches and dry, scaly skin

  • Fine lines and wrinkles

  • Sun spots

  • Irregular pigmentation

  • Enlarged pores

 

Skin Peel Benefits

THINGS TO AVOID BEFORE A PEEL

  • One week before the peel avoid waxing, electrolysis, deploritory creams, and laser hair removal.

  • Five to Seven days before the peel discontinue using any prescription topicals such as Retin-A, differin or Tazorac, as well as any products containing retinol, alpha hydroxyl acids (AHA), beta hydroxyl acids (BHA) or benzoyl peroxide.
