Medical Grade Chemical Peels
Medical Grade Chemical Peels elevate skin texture, tone, and clarity through a meticulous exfoliation process that eliminates the outer skin layer, revealing a refined and uniform complexion. These peels are versatile, addressing an array of skin concerns like wrinkles, fine lines, melasma, large pores, acne, age spots, and uneven skin tone. The treatment involves the application of a chemical solution composed of acids. This solution is applied briefly and then washed off, with the intensity varying based on the peel type. Medical Grade Chemical Peels, utilizing safe and effective formulations, yield noticeable skin improvement after just one session. For optimal results, a series of Chemical Peels is recommended, offered at intervals of 2 to 4 weeks. During your consultation, our Nurse Practitioner will craft a personalized Chemical Peel treatment plan tailored to your skin type, aesthetic aspirations, and individual needs.
AHA Chemical Peel
Alpha Hydroxy Acids, commonly known as AHAs, derive from fruits, milk, and sugar cane, offering a water-soluble solution for skin enhancement. Common indications include:
- Surface Renewal: AHAs excel at surface exfoliation, effectively eliminating dead skin cells. This makes them particularly beneficial for addressing concerns such as dullness, fine lines, and sun damage.
- Hydration-Friendly: Being water-soluble, AHAs are an excellent choice for clients with dry or sensitive skin. Despite their exfoliating properties, they are renowned for overall skin hydration.
- Collagen Boost: Certain AHAs, like glycolic acid, promote collagen production, contributing to enhanced skin firmness and elasticity.
- Hyperpigmentation Treatment: AHAs prove effective in fading dark spots, acne scars, and uneven skin tone.
- Mild Irritation: At higher concentrations or during initial use, AHAs may cause mild irritation or redness.
- Ideal for Dry and Sun-Damaged Skin: AHAs are the go-to choice for individuals with dry, mature, or sun-damaged skin seeking both rejuvenation and exfoliation.
BHA Chemical Peel
Beta Hydroxy Acids, commonly referred to as BHAs, are often synonymous with salicylic acid, a renowned component in acne care. While there are a few others in the BHA family, they remain in the shadows. BHAs, particularly salicylic acid, present distinctive advantages over AHAs:
- Deeper Pore Penetration: Salicylic acid, as a BHA, excels at penetrating pores, making it the preferred choice for clients dealing with acne and blackheads.
- Oil Solubility: BHAs, being oil-soluble, effectively break down excess oil, rendering them optimal for individuals with oily or acne-prone skin.
- Acne and Scar Treatment: BHAs, particularly salicylic acid, unclog pores, potentially reducing the emergence of new blemishes and minimizing scars.
- Reduced Irritation: BHAs are generally well-tolerated by clients with sensitive skin, posing a lower likelihood of causing surface irritation compared to AHAs.
- Gentle Exfoliation and Skin Smoothing: While BHAs contribute to skin exfoliation, they are milder than AHAs in terms of surface exfoliation. Clients with sensitive skin seeking a gentler exfoliation can opt for BHAs
