Superficial Peels

Superficial peels, also known as light chemical peels, involve applying a mild acid to exfoliate the outermost layer of the skin. This treatment effectively removes dead skin cells, revealing a brighter and more even complexion. It helps reduce fine lines, minor wrinkles, and acne blemishes while improving overall skin texture and tone.
Superficial peels are minimally invasive, offering a quick recovery time with noticeable skin rejuvenation benefits. Our commitment to medical excellence ensures that our practitioners are well-versed in the anatomical intricacies of facial musculature, allowing for precise and tailored treatments.

Health Restrictions

Superficial peels, while generally safe, come with certain health restrictions and considerations. The following conditions might interact with the acids used in this procedure:

  • Active skin infections (cold sores, acne, etc.)

  • Severe allergic reactions

  • Highly sensitive skin

  • Skin conditions (eczema, rosacea, etc.)

Additionally, it is advised to avoid superficial peels if you have used isotretinoin (Accutane) within the past six months, as this medication can increase skin sensitivity and the risk of complications. 

It's crucial to disclose your complete medical history during the consultation to ensure the procedure's safety and effectiveness for you.

The Procedure

A superficial peel procedure begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin to remove any oils or impurities. Next, a mild chemical solution is applied evenly to the skin. The solution is left on for a few minutes to exfoliate the outermost layer of dead skin cells. During this time, you might experience a slight tingling or stinging sensation. The peel is then neutralized and gently removed, followed by the application of a soothing moisturizer and sunscreen. The entire process is quick, usually taking about 30 minutes, with minimal downtime required.

Addressing Aesthetic Goals

The aesthetic goals of a superficial peel include achieving a brighter and more even complexion, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and diminishing acne scars and blemishes. Additionally, superficial peels aim to improve skin texture and tone, giving the skin a smoother and more youthful appearance. They also help unclog pores and reduce the visibility of enlarged pores, contributing to a clearer and more radiant skin surface.
