Chemical Peels

A chemical peel can diminish many signs of aging on the face as well as the hands, neck, and chest. Chemical peels also treat some skin conditions. While you may resume normal activities after receiving a peel, some chemical peels may require downtime to achieve optimal results. Your provider will thoroughly discuss the procedure and post-care of your chemical peel.

Whether you receive a chemical peel to diminish signs of aging or treat a skin condition, you can see:

  • Fewer lines and wrinkles.
  • More even skin color.
  • Brighter complexion.
  • Smoother skin.

  • Fine lines (especially under the eyes and around the mouth).
