What is a chemical peel?
A chemical peel is a technique used to improve and smooth the texture of your skin. The peel gently removes the outermost layer of the skin, leaving you with completely fresh, untouched skin. Results include even-toned, smooth, tightened, and refreshed skin.
Peels are most often done on the face, but can also be used on the neck, chest, and hands.
Chemical peels can be used to treat chemical peels for acne scars, uneven pigmentation, rough skin, wrinkles, fine lines, and sun spots.
What do chemical peels do?
Chemical peels work by applying a carefully formulated solution to the skin that loosens and removes the outermost layers, revealing fresh, renewed skin underneath. So, what do chemical peels do beyond exfoliation? They stimulate collagen production, reduce the appearance of acne scars and hyperpigmentation, and improve overall skin tone and texture over a series of treatments.
Chemical peels are a safe and effective treatment to remove the outermost layers of skin in order to expose new, untouched skin. Your NP will create a chemical mixture specifically tailored to your face and skin type to ensure the best results.
While patients can return to normal activities immediately after treatment, the skin is sensitive and should be makeup free and protected from the sun for at least 2-4 days. Most patients begin to experience peeling after 48 hours, which resolves itself in 2-5 days.
Chemical Peels for Acne Scars
Chemical peels for acne scars are one of the most popular reasons patients seek this treatment. By removing damaged surface skin and stimulating new cell turnover, peels gradually reduce the depth and discoloration of acne scarring. The VI Peel is especially effective for active breakouts and post-acne marks. Most patients see progressive improvement with each session.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most patients find chemical peels tolerable, with a mild tingling or warmth during the application. The level of sensation varies depending on the strength of the peel. Light chemical peels typically cause minimal discomfort, while deeper treatments may feel more intense briefly. Your provider will walk you through what to expect before your appointment.
Chemical peels are considered a safe, clinically proven treatment when performed by a qualified provider. At Fresh Face, all peels are administered by a trained nurse practitioner who customizes the formula for your skin type and concerns, minimizing risk and maximizing results. We offer both light chemical peels for mild skin concerns and deeper options for more significant texture or pigmentation issues.
Recovery depends on the depth of your peel. After a light chemical peel, your skin may feel tight and look slightly pink for a day or two. Deeper treatments typically cause more visible peeling starting around day 2 to 3, which resolves within 5 to 7 days. During this time, keep skin moisturized, avoid direct sun exposure, and skip makeup until your provider clears you.
Chemical peels are effective for a wide range of concerns including acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, rough texture, and enlarged pores. The right peel type depends on the concern being treated, which is why we customize every treatment to your specific skin.
