Instant Skin Improvement
You may have tried every skin product in the market to get smooth youthful skin, and failed. Many products available on the market promise a youthful appearance but fail to show results immediately. Some products may show results in the long run, but that is not true for all of them. The effects of the chemical peel treatment start to show results within a couple of days and last for a long time.
What Does a Chemical Peel Do?
A chemical peel is a professionally applied solution that gently exfoliates the outermost layers of the skin, prompting cell turnover and stimulating the body’s natural renewal process. The result? Fresh, healthy skin cells rise to the surface — improving tone, texture, clarity, and overall skin health.
Chemical peels are one of the most versatile and effective non-invasive treatments available. They can address a wide range of skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damage and age spots
- Acne and breakout-prone skin
- Acne scarring
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Hyperpigmentation and melasma
- Dullness and enlarged pores
At Innovative MedSpa, our estheticians assess your skin during a thorough consultation before recommending the peel type, strength, and treatment series best suited to you. No guesswork — just personalized, results-driven care.
Different Types of Chemical Peels
There are several chemical peels available on the market that you can buy and use at home. But it is advised to undertake this treatment with a professional healthcare provider as there is no high risk of chemical reactions for these products under professional supervision. There are three different types of chemical peels that professionals use:
- Superficial or lunchtime peel: It uses alpha-hydroxy or another mild acid which penetrates only to the outer layer of the skin, leaving the inner layers intact. It gently exfoliates the skin and improves the appearance of slight discoloration and rough skin. It is suitable for all skin types, and it can be used to refresh the face, neck, hands, and chest.
- Medium peel: It uses trichloroacetic or glycolic acid to penetrate the outer and middle layers of skin and gently exfoliate it. It is used to smooth rough skin and treat precancerous skin growth. It helps improve the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, age spots, and freckles, as well as moderate skin discoloration.
- Deep peel: It uses trichloroacetic acid or phenol to penetrate the middle layer of the skin and remove the damaged skin cells. A deep peel is used only on the face, and the results are dramatic. It removes moderate lines, freckles, age spots, and shallow scars. Unlike superficial and medium peels, this procedure can be performed only once.
The Ultimate in Experienced Skin Care
Chemical peels are not suitable for every person. If you have sensitive skin, a chemical peel may cause more intense side effects that may damage your skin and hence it is essential to seek professional help.
