Peels
A chemical peel is a skin treatment that resurfaces the outer layers of the skin, correcting skin imperfections such as acne, wrinkles, uneven skin pigmentation and redness. These peels are safe and effective, requiring minimal downtime and leaving minimal redness in the treated areas.
For best results chemical peels should be performed in a series of 4 to 6 treatments. The number of peels required for you will be determined based on your skin care goals and your skin as our approach to peels is customized and tailored to you.
