SkinMedica® peels are clinically formulated to gently exfoliate andaccelerate cell turnover, revealing smoother, more radiant skin with minimal downtime.

How it Works

Application of Chemical Solution

A skincare professional applies a specially formulated chemical solution to the surface of your skin. The strength and type of solution are chosen based on your skin concerns and desired results, ensuring a safe and effective treatment.

Gentle Exfoliation Begins

The solution penetrates the upper layers of your skin, gently breaking down the bonds that hold dead and damaged skin cells together. This controlled exfoliation process targets areas of roughness, uneven tone, and minor imperfections.

Shedding of Dead Skin

In the days following your treatment, the outermost layer of skin begins to peel away. This natural shedding process removes dull, damaged cells and allows healthier, more youthful skin to emerge underneath.

Stimulation of New Cell Growth

As the old skin is shed, your body responds by accelerating the production of fresh skin cells and stimulating collagen renewal. This helps to smooth fine lines, improve skin texture, and enhance overall radiance.

Visible Skin Renewal

Once healing is complete, your skin appears noticeably smoother, brighter, and more even in tone. Chemical peels can also help reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and discoloration, revealing a rejuvenated complexion.
