What is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a non-invasive treatment designed to improve the appearance of your skin by using a chemical solution to exfoliate the outer layers of skin. This process removes damaged skin cells and encourages the growth of new, healthier skin.

At Sand & Sea Medical Spa, we offer different types of peels, including light peels for mild exfoliation and deeper peels for more intensive skin rejuvenation. Your treatment will be personalized based on your skin type and goals.

Chemical peels can address various skin concerns, including:

  • Acne: Helps to unclog pores and reduce breakouts
  • Sun Damage: Reduces pigmentation and sun spots caused by UV exposure
  • Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Smooths the skin and stimulates collagen production
  • Uneven Skin Tone: Evens out discoloration and improves skin texture
  • Rough Skin Texture: Exfoliates dead skin cells for a smoother, healthier complexion

Hello, Natural Glow

What is the chemical peel procedure like?

The chemical peel procedure starts with a consultation where our skilled team will assess your skin’s condition. During the treatment, a specialized solution is applied to your skin for a short time to exfoliate the outer layers. For deeper peels, you may feel a mild tingling sensation. After the peel, we apply soothing products to calm your skin. Treatments usually take 30-60 minutes, depending on the type of peel and the area being treated. After your chemical peel, it’s important to follow aftercare instructions, which may include using gentle skincare products and protecting your skin from sun exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chemical peels are suitable for most skin types, though those with sensitive skin or certain skin conditions like active eczema or rosacea may not be ideal candidates. It's important to have realistic expectations and be aware that deeper peels may require more downtime for healing. Our experts will assess your skin and recommend the best peel based on your concerns.

Chemical peels offer numerous benefits:

  • Smooth, Radiant Skin: Removes dead skin cells, promoting fresh, glowing skin.
  • Reduced Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Stimulates collagen production to reduce the appearance of aging.
  • Clearer Skin: Reduces acne scars, pigmentation, and blemishes.
  • Improved Texture: Helps with rough patches and uneven skin texture.

While recovery time varies based on the depth of the peel, here’s what to expect:

  • Light Peels: Minimal downtime with slight redness or peeling for a few days.
  • Medium Peels: Moderate redness and peeling may last 5-7 days, with visible results after 2 weeks.
  • Deep Peels: Significant peeling and downtime, possibly up to 2 weeks for full recovery.

Be sure to follow your provider’s aftercare instructions, including avoiding sun exposure, moisturizing regularly, and using gentle skincare products.

Results from a chemical peel are typically visible within 1-2 weeks for light peels, and 2-4 weeks for deeper peels. As your skin continues to regenerate, improvements in texture, tone, and clarity will become more apparent. Expect smoother, brighter skin with improved tone and texture. Chemical peels can help diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and pigmentation, leaving your skin looking rejuvenated and glowing. Results last anywhere from 6 months to a year, depending on the depth of the peel and your skincare routine. Regular maintenance treatments will help to preserve and enhance the results.
