How Chemical Peels Work:

Chemical peels work by applying a specially formulated solution to the skin, which gently exfoliates the outer layers, revealing fresher, healthier skin underneath. The process stimulates collagen production and accelerates cell turnover, helping to address concerns such as uneven texture, sun spots, and fine lines. Depending on the depth of the peel, the solution penetrates different layers of the skin, providing customized results. A mild peel targets surface-level concerns, while a deeper peel can address more severe skin issues. It is often recommended to get a series of peels to address deeper concerns such as wrinkles, melasma, and sun damage. The process promotes smoother, clearer skin and improves overall complexion, giving you a refreshed and youthful appearance.

What to Expect Before, During, and After Your Chemical Peel Treatment:

Before your treatment, you'll have a consultation with our skincare specialists to determine the best chemical peel for your skin type and concerns. We will review your medical history, assess your skin, and discuss any precautions or aftercare instructions. During the treatment, the chemical solution will be carefully applied to your skin, with the length of the treatment varying depending on the depth of the peel. You may experience mild discomfort, such as a tingling or warm sensation, but the procedure is very quick and generally well-tolerated. After the treatment, you may notice some redness or slight peeling as your skin begins to renew itself. Although the more mild formulas are low maintenence with little to no peeling, the deeper formulations often result in peeling from days three to seven. Around day seven, your skin will start looking back to normal with a renewed glow. Post-treatment care is essential—our team will provide you with instructions on how to protect and hydrate your skin for optimal results. Within days to weeks, you'll start to see visible improvements, with smoother, more radiant skin that continues to improve over time.

FAQs

  • Chemical peels are skincare treatments that use special acids or enzymes to gently exfoliate the top layers of your skin. This process removes dead skin cells, helps reduce fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, and uneven texture, revealing smoother, brighter, and healthier skin underneath. Different types of peels vary in strength and downtime depending on your skin needs.

  • Chemical peels use safe acids to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells. This stimulates skin cell turnover and collagen production, improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation. Popular in Solana Beach, these treatments reveal brighter, smoother, and healthier skin.

  • Expect a quick procedure where the peel solution is applied to your clean skin. You may feel mild tingling or warmth as the acids work. Depending on the peel strength—light, medium, or deep—you might experience peeling by days 3-5. Your skin will look refreshed and rejuvenated by days 7-10.

  • Most clients in Solana Beach benefit from a series of 3 to 6 chemical peel sessions spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart for optimal results. Your provider will customize the number of treatments based on your skin type, concerns, and goals to ensure safe, effective rejuvenation.

  • Chemical peels cause minimal discomfort. You might feel a mild stinging or warm sensation during application, which usually subsides quickly.

  • Downtime varies by peel type: light peels typically have little to no downtime, while medium peels may cause redness and peeling for 3-7 days. Deep peels require longer recovery. Most clients resume normal activities quickly, with visible skin improvement during healing.
