At Phoenix MedSpa, we offer the most effective professional skincare treatments to help our patients achieve beautiful skin. Among these treatment options, we offer professional chemical peels, which can safely exfoliate the uppermost layers of the skin to reverse aging and sun damage and eliminate visible imperfections. After one treatment, you’ll see improvements in your skin and can maintain a healthy complexion long-term when you make these treatments a normal part of your skincare regimen.
Chemical peels are exfoliating treatments that dissolve the superficial layers of the skin with a combination of anti-aging and skin-safe acids. Unlike physical exfoliation treatments, chemical exfoliation requires no manual exfoliation methods or physical abrasives. Instead, it uses chemical processes to exfoliate dead and damaged skin cells from the superficial layers.
These peels come in various strengths and types and can improve skin health, tone, and texture to visibly reduce aging. At Phoenix MedSpa, we offer professional chemical peels that are safe for different skin types and design customized treatment plans to meet the needs of our patients with unique aging-related and aesthetic goals.
Chemical peels work by promoting the regeneration of skin cells, leading to a smoother and more radiant complexion. They can address various skin concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation. By removing damaged skin cells, these treatments can reveal a healthier layer of skin underneath. We match our chemical peels with specific skin concerns for optimal chemical peel results.
We offer professional chemical peels that are safe for most skin types. These chemical peels will deliver visible results after just one treatment, and regular treatments can transform the skin. Peels can also be combined with other professional skincare treatments for the most comprehensive results.
Once we confirm that you’re a good candidate for a chemical peel, we’ll provide instructions about preparing for your treatment so your skin is ready for the peel process.
You’ll need to temporarily avoid using exfoliating products and avoid scheduling exfoliating treatments at least one week before your appointment to prepare your skin and ensure it responds well to your chosen peel. You’ll also need to drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated, avoid excess sun exposure, and avoid shaving or waxing your skin pre-treatment.
There’s no significant downtime after a chemical peel. Patients who undergo treatment with a light or medium-depth peel can resume most of their normal daily activities after the treatment. Patients who undergo a deep peel will need to plan around some downtime as their skin heals.
You will need to follow some aftercare instructions after your treatment to ensure the best results. This includes avoiding sun exposure, exfoliating treatments, harsh products, and anything that could irritate your skin or make it more susceptible to inflammation or delay healing. You’ll also need to use sunscreen daily to prevent discoloration and skin damage.
You can expect some immediate results after your chemical peel, and the best results will be visible within the first seven to 10 days. You’ll see continuously improving results as your skin heals and your body increases natural collagen and elastin production in response to the treatment.
Patients can expect visible results from just one chemical peel, but these treatments are meant to be scheduled as monthly or bi-monthly maintenance treatments to keep your skin in the best condition year-round. We can give you details about how to space out your treatment to maintain healthy, glowing skin and prevent the dead skin cell barrier from building up and causing a dull complexion.
Yes, patients with darker skin can receive a chemical peel treatment. However, it is essential to choose the right type of chemical peel for dark skin to promote skin health. At Phoenix MedSpa, we specialize in treatments for melanin-rich skin and offer options for those who have not found success with other treatment plans from other practices.
The effects of chemical peels can last for several weeks or more, depending on your skin type, the type of chemical peel, your aftercare routine, and how often you schedule treatments. Deeper chemical peels will last longer, while light chemical peels are more suitable for regular application. To maintain the results, regular treatments and a proper skincare regimen are recommended.
The right chemical peel should always make your skin better, not worse. When we customize your chemical peel treatment plan, we’ll take your skin type and your concerns into account to ensure that your peel rejuvenates your skin, eliminates imperfections, and promotes a healthy glow. We can give you more details about our peels and other professional skin care treatments at your initial consultation.
