Chemical Peels
Chemical
peels use a chemical solution to improve and smooth the
texture of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer
layers. It is helpful for those individuals with facial
blemishes, wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation. Phenol,
trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and alphahydroxy acids (AHAs)
are used for this purpose. The precise formula used may
be adjusted to meet each patients needs
AHA Exfoliating Peels

salicylic or lactic acid peels resulting in a smoother,
clearer skin texture. Great for sun damage, hyperpigmentation,
acne and acne scarring. Great when used in combination
with Microdermabrasion.

The Micro-Peel is a two-step process that removes a
micro-thin top layer of dead skin. The procedure is safe,
effective and accomplished in 15-20 minutes with no recovery
time. The first step is a five-minute, physical or enzymatic
exfoliation of the skin. In the second step, a 15-30 percent
Alpha Hydroxy Acid solution is usually applied.

sun damaged dead skin cells are removed. Oil and blackheads

apply makeup right after the procedure.
